Its wingspan was 95 ft 9 in (29.18 m), its length was 82 ft 6 in (25.15 m), and its projected maximum speed was in the 250–280 mph (400–450 km/h) range. Several variants were proposed, to accommodate different passenger loads. The original Excalibur design envisioned a 21-passenger payload, with a 240 mph (390 km/h) cruising speed.
