By John Ylinen
Lancair Legacy kits are now available in four models that include everything you need to build a flying Legacy expect paint, interior upholstery, and your 51% labor. These all inclusive kits include airframe, a new engine, all “Firewall Forward” parts and accessories, propeller, and a complete “plug and play” IFR glass panel.
The panel features dual Garmin G3X screens with integrated ADAHRS, Engine Information System (EIS), AOA and ADS-B. Also standard is the new Garmin G3X integrated autopilot which features Flight Director, coupled approach and VNAV, plus auto trim. All models except the RG-550/R will feature the new “cuffed” wings that provide better low speed performance.
