July 14, 200223 yr Since the documentation or descriptions do not indicate the range, what is the range of the convair CV580?I'm thinking of doing another round-the-world trip using either the CV580 or the Beech Baron50..... But I need to know the 580's range before I plan anything.....Thanks Declared weather: FSX: ASN / FS9: ASE
July 14, 200223 yr From the University of Washington Research Aircrafthttp://cargsun2.atmos.washington.edu/sys/C...sticsCV580.html1400 nm (1217 miles)From http://www.skytamer.com/specs/usa/convair/cv-580.htm2866 miles (2492 nm) I'm assuming this is with the extended range tanks.Take your pick.
July 14, 200223 yr Author Thanks :)Don't know if the FS CV580 has the extended range tanks or not, so I guess I'll run a long-range test flight or two before planning the trip..... Declared weather: FSX: ASN / FS9: ASE
