The Bombardier web page says that a V-220 engine (their next
generation offering for the 200 hp crowd will weigh 419 pounds (see
http://www.vaircraftengines.com/en/t...Data_v-220.asp).
That's for the whole 'package', who's contents are listed at
http://www.vaircraftengines.com/en/thePackage.asp.
TCM TSIO-520-NB, rated at 335 HP for takeoff, 412 lbs. dry, includes
turbocharger and exhaust.
Is this much more than the standard Lycoming/Continental?
Also, the V-220 is supposed to get .42 lbs/hp-hour. How does
this compare to the standard aircraft engines?
TCM TSIO-520-NB at 75% power/251 HP, 18.5 GPH/108 Lb/hr, = .43 lbs/hp-hour.
