The EA 300L is powered by a
Lycoming AEIO 540L 1B5 engine that provides 300 horsepower, allowing the aircraft to travel at a top cruising speed of 220 knots (253 mph). The aircraft can accommodate a crew of either one or two pilots. The primary civilian operators of the EA 300L comprise flight training facilities and air show performers. Although the EA 300 LP is primarily used for private aerobatics, air shows, and competition, it is used by a number of military operators including the Chilean Air Force, French Air Force, Royal Jordanian Air Force, and the Royal Malaysian Air Force. Comparable aircraft include the Mudry CAP 230, MX Aircraft MX2, Sukhoi Su-26, the Corvus Racer 540, and more.
