- Performance Turbine Legend C-GUTT is seen firing up its powerful Garrett TPE331-10 engine, and taking off from runway 08 at the Calgary Springbank Airport (YBW). Only 28 of this type of homebuilt aircraft have been built. This one, built by Innovative Wings Inc, has over 1000 horsepower and can reach speeds of up to 400 knots!

For those seeking more posts on this plane ... It's referred to as the "Garrett Edition" Turbine Legend, and as reported here, it is the premiere version in its class. In addition to being 1,000 horsepower, the TPE331-10 engine is much more efficient that the PT6-A (in the normal Turbine Legend) in that it consumes much less fuel, climbs much faster, and gets you to the 28,000 feet much quicker. In addition to having 100 Gallons of Jet-A in the wings, you have an "under-seat" tank option (under the passenger seat) giving you close to another hour flying time. It's truly a great personal transport.
Until it comes time to rebuild it, I'm assuming.
Mm7my
@@Cancun771 With the democrat parts pricing policy these days, an overhaul on a PT6-A or a TPE331-10 is off the chart. It will change in 2025 but until then it's the price of turbine ownership.
@@Cancun771That's no different to other aircraft...if you can't afford an engine rebuild, you wouldn't own it in the first place.
Qual é a velocidade máxima? 🤔
Lovely aircraft! Looks like modern P-51.
Yeah it sure does!
It puts a P51 in the ditch. Its climb rate is over 5,000 feet per minute, it "cruises" at 350 knots (402 mph), and burns around 35 gallons per hour at altitude (P51 is 60). Bigger issues ... in operation it is extremely smooth, it's very quite (for pilot), and the throttle is very responsive without the monster P-Factor (torque roll) of the P51, and the Legend has "Beta" (zero prop thrust) for taxi and landing roll-out. All this said, it's not really a fair comparison since the Legend is new technology and altogether different engine platform. There's not a Legend pilot alive that wouldn't trade for a P51. Problem is ... Garrett Legend = $500,000 / P51 = $2M to $3M.

@@derekheuring2984 OK smart ass ... here you go. In 1959, my Uncle worked at NASA in Huntsville, Alabama. On our visit, and this is when we lived in AMERICA (not millennialville) he took us on a personal tour of the facility, which included numerous buildings. The primary focus was where he worked as an engineer on the valves that controlled fuel flow to the 5 engines on the Atlas Booster (each over 6' in diameter at the outlet). And, again smart ass ... the air inside that room (the Clean Room) is precisely the same air that was entombed via seal in 1958. The breathing gases inside the room are measured and replaced as needed for its specification. While there, we were introduced to Werner Von Braun. At ages 10, 9, and 7, we were polite but had no idea who he was. An enigma ... my Uncle was in wave 2 at Omaha Beach, and now (then) was reporting to the man who developed the V1 and V2 rockets. Also during the tour, Uncle Frank asked if we wanted to sit in the Mercury Space Capsule. Due to my size, I couldn't fit, my sister was claustrophobic, but my brother was allowed to climb in. Another unknown and non-knowledge to the public (to happen later) ... why was there so much hoopla over the sinking and blaming of Gus Grissom's capsule ? The answer is a question. What is the greatest conductor of electricity ? The answer is GOLD. Gus's capsule contained miles of gold wire (not gold plated). I can go on about my knowledge of rocketry but I think I've made my point smart ass. Suffice to say that the comparison between the V2 and the Saturn V is simply size, weight, and thrust. They were developed by the same person. They were constructed by the same vendor, and their purposed is identical. So ... smart ass, time for you to go back to what you do best, which is picking the peanuts out of Boomer's shit.
@@derekheuring2984 I posted ... but "they" took it down. Not to worry ... you were duly and copiously noted with the disdain you so richly deserve.
I went from watching P-51 Mustang videos to this video when it popped up in my feed. I am happy with TH-cam's algorithm for a change! Turbine Legend sure is a slick looking beast!
Thanks! It sure is a beautiful aircraft!
Wow, beautiful lines on this aircraft! The entire tail assembly is a work of art, almost elegant. Never heard of this aircraft in my life! Very nice.
I agree, this is one stunning aircraft! This was my first time seeing one too! Glad you enjoyed!
I have seen it... P-51 Mustang
I know the owner and he is a former RCAF F-104 pilot, so he is used to speed and power like this A/C has. Beautiful work and great airplane!!
That's awesome, I heard he was ex-military! Thanks a lot, I love this aircraft too!
The confidence in the taxi at the beginning shows skill.
New to me.
That's a good-looking plane.
Yeah, it sure is a beauty! This was my first time seeing one too.
Nice seeing a Garrett turboprop installed, sounds great!
I agree, it sounds awesome!
Yep, most turbine experimentals have PT6A power. This is an oddball.
Smooth taxi, sound’s solid
I seem to recall some urban legend (see what I did there?) about a flight this plane was on from Calgary to Abbotsford. Something from ATC to the effect of "Westjet XXX, please maintain speed, heading and altitude. You are about to be passed by a home-built"....
Haha that's funny
That’s no legend. That was a Legend.
Well...that would never get old!
Looks like a wild ride...
Yeah it really does!
@@sebsaviationyyc I Do love the Turbine Wilga called Draco (RIP) 😮💨
What a cool aircraft to see and hear, that's not a type I've ever heard of before. It looks awesome!
Thanks a ton, yeah this was super fun to catch!
I've never seen one of those before. Looks really cool. I thought it was a P-39 Airacobra at first.
I thought the same thing.
Yeah it looks pretty similar to a P-39!
stomping hard on the right! awsome power
Yeah it's powerful for sure!
Lookin' good, Dad! 🩷👌🩷
Now I know what lottery tickets are really for.
Haha yeah exactly!
The layout of this airplane reminds me of the Me-309. Very elegant indeed.
Saw this plane take off from Qualicum Beach airport (CAT4) in BC once. Amazing climb power!
Yeah it's pretty impressive!
un joli film ? oui, avec un avion magnifique .
Merci, c’est vraiment un bel avion. Heureux que vous ayez apprécié!
Goregeous aircraft indeed!
Yeah this one is beautiful!
Beauty and the Beast
So now you know what to do. If you have a flat battery with a P51 look alike !
Splendide aéronef et quelle puissance !
Oui, c’est très impressionnant !
@@sebsaviationyyc Je n'ai aucun mal a vous croire quand on voit l'accélération de départ , c'est tout a fait caractéristique d'une machine bien motorisée.
Neat, looks great!
I agree, it looks awesome!
Fantastic Plane would i see this for the Air show in wichita.
Yeah it's a great plane! Dunno if it's going to Wichita this year
@@sebsaviationyyc I hope so .
Any COIN version of this aircraft?
Cool aircraft new type to me !
Yeah they're pretty uncommon, this was my first time seeing one as well!
Nice looking!
Yeah it sure is!
Fantastic 👏
Thank you!
I want one, it looks great 👍
I know, right! I kinda want one too now!
Gets off the ground in a hurry and retracts the landing gear in jig time!
Yeah it sure is speedy!
According to the company website the " normal Turbine Legend " is powered by the Walter M601 not the PWC PT6. While the engines are similar in appearance they are not the same engine. Have there been any PT6 powered Legends?
I'm not sure about a PT6 powered legend, that's a good question! All the other videos I've seen of these have been either this Garrett powered one or Walter powered ones.
Just from the airframe shape and the control surfaces this aircraft must get mighty dangerous if you exceeded NEV.
Don't show this to Mike... 😉
I'm really digging the markings. Reminds me of an old Sabre MkVI I saw on display once.
Superb catch my friend! New sub from me and greetings from London!🙂🤩
Thanks so much for the support!
Wow ! What a beautiful slim aircraft ! I wished I had such a thing even with only 150 hp. I saw the rudder deflection during take off run. Has it been full power or is the power to be reduced like taking off with an old war bird?
Yeah it sure is a beauty! I believe that was full power with the rudder deflection to counteract the huge amount of torque.
I'll take the sound of a merlin anytime .
Imagine that as a spitfire
vne is just over 340 , so it isnt capable of over 400, but 290 cruise is still very impressive. very cool design, looks like what a p51 designed in the nineties would look like
James, we build these and with the Garrett engine the aircraft is capable of 400 knots true airspeed. This particular Legend routinely cruises between 360-380 ktas.
@@shanedaly6177 it was to my understanding that VNE is an aircraft’s maximum structural speed ? Beyond that it’s supposedly risks structural damage ?
I saw on multiple sources that vne was over 400, and trusting the people who build them, I guess it definitely is 400
The website from the manufacturer states 340. im not doubtful that the engine itself could go further. however if vne is 340 anyone going faster risks the plane splitting apart. just like when people put v8 into cesnas, the vne remains the same. @@sebsaviationyyc
There’s a difference between Indicated airspeed (which Vne is based on) and True airspeed, which increases with altitude. So the aircraft could be “indicating” 250 kts at, for eg, 25000’ but it’s true airspeed (TAS) would be around 380kts. Hope that makes sense, and helps.
What’s the landing speed of this beauty?
Me want one 😢
il est magnifique
le seul truc qu'on pourrait reprocher c'est la verrière
il faudrait une bulle comme le P51D
C’est une bonne idée, je me demande si vous seriez autorisé à faire cette modification si vous achetiez le kit de l’un d’entre eux.
Désolé si mon français est mauvais, ce n’est pas ma langue maternelle.
Is it possible to give 400 knots in the metric system? A knot is a nautical mile, 1852 meters per hour? or another mile? you have many different ones 😃 740 km/h?
This aircraft does 400 nautical miles per hour, which yes, is an impressive 740.8 kilometers per hour!
Lindo avião!🌟
Sim, parece incrível!

What a fabulous way to turn money into nitrogen oxide gases.
what is the g-limit? such a nice aircraft I want one or maybe two :D
G-limit is +6 and -4, I would love to have one too!
Looks like p63cobra
Yeah, I was thinking that too!
Is that the one in Alberta?
Yeah it is!
@sebsaviationmkw.7170 I thought it looked familiar lol. Saw it up close about 5 years ago. The owner is a super cool guy
It looks more like a P-51 but with a tricycle landing gear and a turboprop engine.
Yeah, it sure does! It could also pass for a turboprop powered Kingcobra or something.
Romansetgo do you like Taylor swift?
Speed?
This thing can press 400 knots!
Drool...
Electronic shutter :(
Porque no construir uno en casa con aprobación de gente en el tema creo que si los experimentales aquí en Arg hay muchísimo porque mucha gente quiere volar y comprarse un avión de fabrica cuesta millones de dolares
How is it allowed to use an Air Force logo?
At one point his other plane was a CF-104. He has earned those markings and then some.
@@terke1230 I'm just a little surprised that a civilian plane is allowed to use an RCAF logo. Can anyone do it?
Yikes ...... that's probably as close to having a military aircraft, without having to buy an ex-military aircraft.
Yeah that's for sure! The owner of this one is ex-military himself!
Needs some guns
Haha yeah!
Model name?
Performance Aircraft Turbine Legend (Garrett Edition)
@@sebsaviationyycthat Garrett edition is an Innovative Wings mod, nobody else’s. That took a lot of work and effort and engineering. Some other people try to copy and put their claim on it, but it’s purely Innovative Wings from CYBW.
Nice uh... "GPU" ya got there 🤣
lol yeah
Really floppy propeller on that. 😂
frame rate lol
Pc21 sounds better
Don’t build this at home!
Not my up of tea.
TPE 331-10 UA 511G 840 hp dry
I know the owner, trust me its not stock and has a lot more HP.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤
Thanks a lot!
