Performance
At maximum takeoff weight from a sea-level airport,
the XLS climbs directly to 43,000 feet in just 20 minutes, quicker
than any other jet in its class. Not only can you travel in the
comfort of a midsize and at speeds of nearly 500 mph, but you
can also get out of airfields as short as 3,590 feet at maximum
takeoff weight. It really is the best of several very real worlds
rolled into one Sure Thing.
