High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Velocity SE is the entry level canard pusher aircraft from Velocity Aircraft. The four seat, rear engine aircraft is typically powered by a Lycoming IO-320 (160 hp) or a Lycoming IO-360 (200 hp) engine. As with other canard aircraft, the Velocity is a sleek, efficient personal aircraft with a 930-nautical-mile (1,720 km) range on a 60 gallon fuel load at 65% power and a 75% power cruising speed of 155 ktas. This home-built composite aircraft can be built as a standard "slow build" kit or by purchasing "fast build" options that supply many major pre-fabricated assemblies.
