Turkish TAI Hurkus 350 Completes Maiden Flight

Test pilot comments were, as is customary, short and sweet.  There is no data available in the article on the size and gross weight of the plane, but 1600 horsepower seems quite a bit given the apparent size of the 350.  Even the pilot seems to have been impressed with the resulting performance.  As a reference, your typical Pilatus PC-7 runs with 550-750 hp.
