Thanks for sharing the insights. I agree that the Eclipse is the epitome of economy, innovation and ease of flying. It is my next upgrade if business continues to thrive. Keep pressing forward and stay safe!! Cheers!
thanks for the video!
Very cool demo
You are the coolest Erin, you look great too!
Eclipse vs TBM? Great presentation and I loved the MGB reference!
The TBM, with Beta/Reverse, can get into a smaller runway. The Eclipse is faster, burns less fuel, flies much higher, and has the safety of two engines. The Eclipse is smoother and quieter without a giant turbine/prop in the nose. Oh, and the Eclipse costs less to buy. For me it was no contest.
@@rickdc3 can we talk outside this forum. I love the eclipse because of the two engines. if i have 6,000 feet of runway, can the eclipse operate comfortably?
At times this almost comes across as a parody. I love it. If I win the lotto tonight I'll buy two.
I would like to know if this Jet can fly in case oneof the Engines gets a problem and it's shut down. Secondly, can the interiors be upgraded?
This jet can even take off with one engine.
It seems awful loud inside the plane
Isn't Eclipse defunct? No more support?
John Travolta has one - sold his Lear I guess and bought an Eclipse.
Great video! This is a question out of my own ignorance, not a judgement so please don't attack me for asking - haha. Will Avio Avionics continue to support and upgrade the avionics? Avio is a pretty solid company but like any company answering to boards and shareholders, they need to justify expenses on any and all profit centers. For people thinking of purchasing this incredibly cool little jet, it is likely not a deal killer but a legitimate concern.
Yah it's interesting, half the weight of a phenom 100. But it can just be much better still and I learned from a PW sales rep that the engines are 911k each. Which is just a robbery. They are the smallest turbofan engines around yet rounded off to an even million when they should cost less than 1/10 of that. Jet engines are actually quite simple and the smaller they are the easier for the material to hold. A turbo for a car might be 300 dollars retail and it's the same inconel material for the turbine wheel. Eclipse is about 1600kg but make the fuselage as a single piece carbon fiber shell it can be much lighter still which means much smaller engines and skinnier wings and everything becomes easier. There is no reason that a twin jet couldn't be half price of a Cirrus SR22T. With better fuel efficiency going double speed at 4x the altitude. What Eclipse should have done when douche PW decided to be greedy with their price and destroy Eclipse and their own sales in the process was to make their own engines. It's not that hard and the upside is huge. The engine makers are the main problem in GA.
How does the Avio Avionics compare with Garmin?
For me, the Avio in more intuitive for most things. The only thing I miss from the G3000 is fully automated VNAV, and the higher quality map on the MFD. VNAV in the Avio will tell you what rate of descent you need and when to start, but you have to do it.
@@rickdc3Thanks so much!
its still so loud in the cockpit!! I was thinking for the price of aircraft it would be relatively silent..
So how do I get a ride in one?
Where are you located?
