At maximum
takeoff weight from a sea-level airport, the XLS climbs directly
to 43,000 feet in just 20 minutes, quicker than any other jet in
its class. Not only can you travel in the comfort of a midsize
and at speeds of nearly 500 mph, but you can also get out of
airfields as short as 3,590 feet at maximum takeoff weight. It
really is the best of serveral very real worlds rolled into one
Sure Thing. |
