This plane (The Cri Cri) is so small you cant put a helmet on, like its going to help you anyway, I want one of these big time, so cool. Top speed at this flight was 240 k m/hour (150 mph). Flying with only one engine the speed is still 160 km/hour (100 mph). Nicolas Charmont has installed 2 AMT Olympus Turbines in his Cri Cri together with AMT on-board automatic start-up units and individual EDT's. The Cri Cri weighs 170 Kg (375 lbs), and should have enhanced performance with over 36 Kg (80 lbs) of thrust available. [Aircraft Resource Center]
