Source measurement	With these improvements, the L 410 NG has doubled the maximum distance it can fly and can carry 500 kilograms in increased payload than the previous model. Like its predecessor L 410 UVP-E20, it will be sold in all variations. It is intended for commercial airlines, government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and armed forces. In addition to the passenger version , it can also be configured as a cargo plane . It can be used especially in island states where there is a problem of refueling in remote islands.^[source]Aircraft Industries L 410 NG · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Capacity: 19 passengers / 2,300 kg (5,071 lb) load^[source]Aircraft Industries L 410 NG · Specification (L 410NG); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Length: 15.074 m (49 ft 5 in)^[source]Aircraft Industries L 410 NG · Specification (L 410NG); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Wingspan: 19.478 m (63 ft 11 in)^[source]Aircraft Industries L 410 NG · Specification (L 410NG); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Height: 5.969 m (19 ft 7 in)^[source]Aircraft Industries L 410 NG · Specification (L 410NG); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Wing area: 34.86 m 2 (375.2 sq ft)^[source]Aircraft Industries L 410 NG · Specification (L 410NG); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Cabin volume for passengers: 17.9 m 3 (632 cu ft)^[source]Aircraft Industries L 410 NG · Specification (L 410NG); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Passenger doors: 0.8 m × 1.46 m (2 ft 7 in × 4 ft 9 in)^[source]Aircraft Industries L 410 NG · Specification (L 410NG); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Cargo door: 1.25 m × 1.46 m (4 ft 1 in × 4 ft 9 in)^[source]Aircraft Industries L 410 NG · Specification (L 410NG); only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Seat pitch at max.
