Here's my Legacy.  I've been considering selling it.  Everything works perfectly.  If you have an interest in a beautiful machine, look at http://www.geocities.com/bwbpilot and see what a wonderful job Martin Heisler did building this ship.  I spent $295,000 to build it with Martin.  I would consider selling it for $276,000. 
 
I love the S-Tech autopilot.  That thing will fly approaches all day long automatically from the Garmin 430.  It also has a remote altitude pre-select head where you can even set your climb or descent rates and just sit back, listen to some music on the Sony CD-player in the panel and let the computer do the work.  This airplane is a spaceship to me.  It's in perfect rig and it's fast.  It's an IO-550 I run at 10,000 msl most of the time.  I burn 14 gal/hr, 50 degrees rich of peak and go 280 mph statute (245 knots).  That's only about 60 mph slower than a VLJ...and they burn 70 gallons per hour.  It's 20 mpg in the Legacy. 
 
Another really cool thing I really like is the Angle of Attack indicator with voice into your headset.  If you pull a tight turn at low airspeed just after Tko, it tells you in your headset to relax the stick pressure.  It says, "Angle."   If you were ever to forget to put your gear down, when you get below a preset airspeed (I've set mine at 130 knots), it tells you, "Landing Gear." That plus a lot of other stuff is piped into your headset, like the Monroy traffic avoidance system in it.  When you've been on a long X-country and you are just cruzin' relaxin' and diggin' it, if someone with an Xponder gets within 5 miles of you, it says, "Traffic" and digitally tells you what the altitude differential is between you and the target.  When that target gets close, it shifts in your headset to "Traffic Near!"  I feel it is designed to get your eyes out of the cockpit on a X-country where you might be reading a map or doing something inside when another airplane comes near.
 
I really enjoy reading this newspage of people who fly the Lancairs.  Thanks Marv for doing this.
