    This document summarizes the design requirements and performance specifications for a small, 2-passenger VLA (very light aircraft). Key details include: - It carries 2 passengers and 80 lbs of baggage with a cruise speed of 200 knots and range of 200 nm. - The estimated dry mass is 390 kg with a total all-up mass of 628 kg and weight of 6151 N. - At 75% power and 59% efficiency, the 168 kW engine allows a cruise range that exceeds the customer minimum of 200 nm. - Stall speed is 23 m/s with a maximum lift coefficient of 1.3 and wing area of 14.9 sqm on a low aspect ratio wing
