A new flight deck welcomes the crew ~ a customized all-metal instrument panel with clusters of turbine gauges in addition to standard avionics and systems, including an S-Tec 55 Autopilot with Altitude Pre-Select. 

QUIETNESS

This is one of the few high performance aircraft that meets Alpine Country noise restrictions.  

PRESSURIZATION & AIR CONDITIONING

The Silver Eagle offers cabin comfort at its best!  No other affordable single-engine general aviation aircraft offers both turbine power and pressurization ~ air conditioning is standard equipment; pressurization retained to 23,000'.

DUAL VACUUM  SYSTEM

Dual pumps provide IFR back-up, one electrically driven by the 150-Amp alternator, and one mechanically driven by the engine.  Since weight has not been a penalty, a large 40+Amp battery serves as a further electrical power reserve.

INCREASED RANGE

Range takes a giant stride-from 760 NM to 1030 NM.  A 27-gallon fuel tank is added as standard in the baggage area, extending useable fuel to 115 U.S. gals.  This distance is accomplished at standard cruise, but powering back a few knots can move the range to well above 1200 NM ~ almost a 50% increase over the standard piston. Jet-A almost always costs less per mile than AvGas.   Overseas, the cost savings can cut as much as 50% from fuel bills.

STRUCTURAL STRENGTHENING

Extending beyond the obvious new nose, engine mounts and cowling, flight control surfaces have been strengthened with combinations of additional ribs, heavier fittings, dual trim tab actuators, and mass balancing of the rudder and ailerons.

REVERSIBLE DE-ICED PROP

The flight standard Hartzell propeller is further complemented by optional aircraft de-ice packages.  The Silver Eagle's 90-inch, three-bladed reversible propeller provides STOL performance, snappy climbs, optimum cruise, and the ability to BACK INTO parking areas.
