lol, after how many years? I would expect you to know when I am pulling someone's leg.

I would say they have, most engineers see the big picture and on balance it's an attractive concept to own and keep. Maybe it's more accurate to say they didn't market it to "real jet pilots".

I think they had hoped the payload/ range equation would have been better and the price will be more than expected. It appears to be a great airplane, and that was my point.

They market it to the folks who employ the engineers.

Cirrus don't need two engine jet , the next step Sirius must stop building the old fashioned piston SR 20 and 22 and start building a cheap turboprop engine with SR 20 and 22 model .

That would be a cool airplane. I’m not sure how they’d keep the cost under a million USD, and we need something that will still act as an entry level single.

Diesel engine powered with the EPS at 350 hp would make sense and its already flying as the EPS test bed. Turbine powered without pressurization does not really make sense and you could not carry enough fuel.

Agree.

Maybe someday someone will want to build a turbine optimized for low altitude, but I expect it would be used to charge batteries.

My only question about the Cirrus Jet is:

Can it generate 500 pages?

Easy peasy. This page has engineering issues.

It's already here. It's called SF50

You are suffering from faulty memory or deliberate deception. Not clear which is worse.

Of course that's your come back..... Nobody wants to sift through all your bad predictions in this thread. Keep your $100. It's worth having this thread to remind myself that a guy like you is out there, functioning in this world without a lick of common sense.

Here's another bet for you since you refuse to show me how a 2 engine jet is supposed to be cheaper on the market than a single...... I'll bet you $100 that 2 new SF 50 sized turbine engines are more expensive than 1.
