Inspection And Training Package Included In Base Price
Pricing and value on the 2010
Lancair Evolution has been simplified into one base price for the
airframe from the firewall aft. The 2010 base kit will include the
airframe and systems as well as a Lancair engineered Garmin G900x
panel including all the commonly ordered and expected options for
an aircraft in this range.
The G900x panel includes Synthetic Vision, Engine Monitoring, XM
Weather, Tru Track autopilot, Secondary Electrical and
Environmental Control touch screen, TCAD, and more. Also included
in the price is a two-week builder assist mentor program at the
Lancair facility when the kit assembly is begun.
At the end of this two-week period the owner can expect to have an
airframe sitting on the main gear, which can then be packaged for
shipment to his or her final assembly location. Not included are
the engine and prop of choice (either a Pratt & Whitney PT-6 or
a Lycoming iE2 TEO-540), interior covering and upholstery, and
exterior paint.

Also included in the 2010 price is the
new Inspection and Training package, which ensures the customer has
built a high quality aircraft and can safely transition to their
new aircraft. Utilizing the expertise of High Performance Aircraft
Training, Inc., builders will first receive a factory build quality
inspection, and then after their FAA D.A.R. airworthiness
inspection, a pre first-flight inspection along with a first-flight
test flight, by an HPAT test pilot. Following the test flights the
customer will be provided with three training days of transition
flight training in their new Evolution. At the completion of the
first year since issuance of the aircraft's Airworthiness
Certificate, the customer will receive three additional training
days of recurrent training in his aircraft. Lancair remains
committed to ensuring the safe construction of their aircraft kits
and promoting the maintenance of pilot skills.
The 2010 price for the basic Evolution airframe including the
complete panel with Garmin G900x suite, builder's assist and the
inspection/training package is $495,000.
