I was a janitor at eclipse aviation while i was going to barber college, i got to see this jet evolve, i like the way the prototype looked better, got to sit in it.

how much fuel does a jet like this use ??? full tank ??

Eclipse is broke. I lost my $175,000.00 deposit with these Bernie Madoff crooks.

What a fvckin joke. I 'll take a PiperJet anyday, single engine and all, stay with big brand names folks if you're buying airplanes, I learned my lesson.

Does this aircraft have reverser jets?

[b101aa2]

i dunno. but when landing speeds are about the same as a cessna 182, you definately don't need em.

@DominoFaz It does NOT have any TR's or buckets! It is designed to land in a relatively short runway and thats the way the wing is designed.

Tip tanks are so Lear sixties. No winglets?

Should have a good market in China. American corn fed boys are too big for this little guy.
