Not sure how the speed and FF compare, but the gain of 277 lbs of UL is amazing.
 
Uh, I think she meant that this second installation of the DeltaHawk is 277lbs lighter than the first installation. I don't think she meant that it is 277 lbs lighter than the IO-390.
I wonder how that's possible. I thought they have been certifying the same engine for >decade? Did they install a different (weaker) engine this time?
 
I could not listen to that lady very long. Her cadence is just so odd.
It's like an extra pause to put added emphasis on the punctuation. And then paranoid about a run on sentence. Off putting.
 
Great they got the install weight down. Sure is taking them forever to get to market though. Will be interesting to see final installed specs and what the weight and performance ends up being in different models.
 
I was fine until you said something. Thanks a lot for ruining it. :oops:
It sounds like AI reading a script. Saying "G-P-H" instead of gallons per hour is either AI or a reporter who doesn't know automotive/aviation lingo. The pauses at commas/periods were odd but seemed almost perfectly synced with what an AI bot would do when it came to said punctuation. She obviously had a detailed script and read it with a purpose, lol. She also blinks excessively.
 
She might have actually been an AI generated image. The cadence reeks of an AI bot.
I think that may be an attribute being taught to budding journalists as two young reporters at two, local to me, television stations relate their stories with the exact same cadence. It is almost robotic.

Meanwhile, robots are starting to sound a lot more human.
