Piaggio Avanti P180 -
41,000 Feet
If its cold and you are light.
390 knots high speed Cruise - but normally about 360-365 at 330
If its cold
1700 + nm Range w/ IFR reserves
Not likely. NBAA IFR range is listed at 1400nm and again only at ISA.
Burns around 280/side at altitude (410)
But you can't reach 410 very often because it is usually ISA+10
We can do SF or L. Angeles to NJ non-stop with a nice tailwind...
No way.
Can land on a 2300 foot runway if you're good
Piaggio claims 3000' at sea level and 77F (ISA+10) anyway you couldn't take
off again.
Perfect safety record - Never an injury or fatality -
Only a few ezamples flying

In spite of the above, it is one of the best from a number of standpoints.
I have come close to buying one twice.
