2019年11月7日 · Are you still talking about the VL3? It does not have a 1,000nm range at 200KTAS. The 200KTAS figure is top speed at FL180 at Max Continuous Power. Fuel burn at MCP is 11gph. It only holds 37 gallons of fuel. Normally, you'd cruise at Max ECO power, where you'd burn 8gph and cruise more like 170KTAS.

2023年9月6日 · Rotax recently hosted an EAA webinar regarding the new 916iS engine. The presentation included this power and fuel burn comparison chart. Some unit conversion and math is required, but the bottom line appears to be that, at maximum continuous power ("Max C"), the 916iS generates about the same po...

Short Video of our 915 VL3 Evolution. No need to sacrifice performance for fuel efficiency, with the 915 you have the best of both worlds. High service ceiling, speed, and great fuel economy. No Oxygen? No, problem. 3.7gph 125KTAS . 4.7gph 146KTAS. 9.7gph 186KTA . 9gph KTAS 180 . Max continuous . FL160 .

2022年5月3日 · “A VL3 turbine is easier to fly than a traditional piston aircraft,” added JMB, “thanks to the electronic management of the FADEC and its unique lever.” Not only do they report modest fuel burn rates, thanks to the heat exchanger, but kerosene price is also a good advantage compared to the fuel normally used,” observed Jean-Marie Guisset.

2025年2月3日 · Pilot Steve just posted a new YouTube video with some real-world cruise speed and fuel burn data in his new VL3 with the 916iS engine option. To summarize: At 4,500 MSL, 166 KTAS and 8.0 GPH @ 88% power At 5,500 MSL, 151 KTAS and 6.0 GPH @ 69% power Steve promises to gather data from higher altit...

VL3 is an ultralight, aerodynamically directed, single-engined, low-wing airplane of classic design with fore-type retractable or fixed landing gear and with two pilot seats next to each other.

2025年2月9日 · Pilot Steve posted a video of an IFR flight, including some actual IMC in a broken layer, with cruise performance data at 7,500 feet. In short: The video includes some pattern speeds, flap settings, and commentary on other aspects of the plane near the end. Eagerly awaiting cruise performance data from "oxygen" altitudes!

2020年8月4日 · In a hurry, 90 per cent power, 5,400rpm, at 12,000ft givres a True Air Speed of190kt and a fuel burn of 35 litres per hour. A more economical cruise at the same altitude, is 50 per cent power, 150kt and 18 litres per hour.

The VL-3 Evolution also called the Aveko VL-3 Sprint is a Czech ultralight aircraft, designed and initially produced by Aveko of Brno. The design is now produced by JMB Aircraft of Choceň. The aircraft was originally supplied by Aveko complete ready-to-fly, but is now owner-completed through a factory assistance program. [2][3][4][5]
