The fly-away price is 1.5M (projected cost from their website) Unlike
larger jets the Eclipse is not delivered green, and the avionics suite
is standard

Hourly operating costs will likely be on the order of $800-1,000.


Their figures are $372/hr based on 500hrs annual utilization. I think
those figures might prove to be conservative (salesmanship?) but I'd
guess the actual costs will be closer to their number instead of yours


What was Jet-A selling for when they ran the numbers?
