I's available for inspection!

The world's very first Lancair ES-P (pressurized) has been flying for
the past year during which a host of fine-tuning has been done. This
aircraft, N301ES,is the first of its kind and it embodies the newest
technologies available to general aviation.

The basic construction is graphite/epoxy composite with integral
metallized graphite ground planes. The engine is a twin-turbo Teledyne
Continental TSIO550 fitted with dual LightSpeed electronic ignition.
Prop is 4-blade full-feathering composite by MT. The primary
instrumenation is a 3-screen Chelton flight system and TruTrak Sorcerer
autopilot. The aircraft is pressurized to 5.5 PSI allowing operation in
the flight levels with no supplemental oxygen, and it is air
conditioned. Mounted to the wings, horizontal stab and prop is
RDD/Kelly Aerospace Therm-X heated leading edge de-ice system, and
embedded in the wings are pulsing HID Xenon lights. The paint scheme is
by Scheme Designers and the painting itself by Sturgis Aviation. There
is much more - see the attached PDF.

The plane is coming out of the paint shop today and will be at
Airventure starting Sunday July 22. Stop by and see this beauty on
display at the Kelly Aerospace Booth "Combo K" at the southeast corner
of exhibit hanger C.
