Description
N500HP is one of two surviving Howard 500's.
The Howard 500 was conceived at the absolute pinnacle of piston-engine aircraft development.
Its performance remains remarkable more than six decades after its introduction. Power is supplied by two Pratt & Whitney R-2800-CB-16 radial engines, each producing approximately 2,500 horsepower. Together, they deliver an impressive 5,000 horsepower.
With a cruising speed of approximately 350 mph and a range exceeding 2,200 miles, the Howard 500 was designed to accommodate a two-person flight crew and up to 12 passengers in executive comfort.
