I have not done any careful measures but in general, take off is about 300 feet and it can be landed in 500 feet. Our field is 1800 feet and I don't need more than half of it. The climb is about 7-800 tpm at 65-70 mph. I cruise at 85 mph at 2400 rpm. Like the 0 200 because it is well known simple and has a long reputation of reliable. That said, I like the look of the Jabaru , especially the six cylinder model because it is smoother running than a four banger.

hi kenneth, i'm trying to find out some performance figures for 0-200  powered 750's so I can make my decision on a power plant. What kind of take off roll, climb and cruise speed are you getting?
