Sweet looking little jet, but definitely entry level performance. I certainly wouldn't pass up the chance to fly one though!

I'm surprised it's as heavy as it is if it truly is all carbon fiber.

They have been on display for years at all big aviation events and they have allowed everyone to sit and play with the mockups. Its surprisingly spacious. The cockpit does not require folding yourself in half like the typical small jet.

That's a plus. Same reason people buy 2-seat cars.
