Description
A GIANT OF THE SKIES!


In this age of technology travel is more that just moving, its a statement of who you are. And no plane in the world gives a statement like the new SAE model 601. Its electric lighting, well stocked bar and onboard washroom speak to men who value comfort . Its internal engines, radio-telephone and AutoMap say "this man values safety". And its sleek lines, herculean range and night flying capabilities speak to men of modernity who can see the shape of tomorrow.
So make a statement with an EA ticket today, and fly the way of the future

Ocean it definately can. you need the whole runway, ;let the tail come up by itself and then pitch up gently at about 35m/s
