Just got an email from Textron counting down to a "Gen2" announcement. They've already announced the CJ4 Gen2. Anyone know what we will see here? CJ3+ and M2 Gen2?

As a potential used M2 buyer, I’m happy with anything they do that might prompt current owners to upgrade.

Features new to the M2 Gen2 include wireless smartphone charging pads and USB-A ports at every seat in the cabin. The M2 Gen2’s cockpit will also provide an additional 3in (7.6cm) of legroom for the co-pilot, and “cabin entry threshold materials have been improved for durability and maintainability”. Innovation! https://www.flightglobal.com/nbaa-2021/ ... 62.article

LOL, I guess they got my feedback from the demo flight! Are you OK with 3 inches more or still short?

I think I need another demo flight to be sure.

LOL, I guess they got my feedback from the demo flight! Was this an issue only on the right seat?
