Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am looking for specific and useful information on the PZL/Sikorsky Isotov GTD-350 Turbo Shaft/Turboprop engine. I understand that one of these will produce 400 Shaft Horsepower, while weighing in at 298 pounds dry. Length is 54 inches, diameter 24 inches. What could the TBO be reasonably expected to be? What would be the fuel consumption rate? RPM levels? What maintenance would it require? Have any of these been used in experimental or homebuilt aircraft in the US or elsewhere? I look forward to reading your responses.
Thank you,
Sincerely and Respectfully,
whiteknight
P.S. Please do not laugh me out or think me crazy.
