I was at OSHKOSH this year and EPS has a Jet A/Diesel engine, 8 cylinder, turbo charged, intercooler, Liquid Cooled, full FADIC control, 425 HP.
EPS.aero Burns 10.5 Gallons of Jet A per hour at 60% power, Prop RPM of 2000. Should be certified early next year. They are projecting a TBO of 3000 hours.
How would it be to have the power of a 680 that burns 20 gallons per hour of Jet A fuel?
