So, I wonder how these two factors affect seat prices and hence
airline operating costs. Did Eclipse Aviation's Eclipse 500 ever get
off the ground?
Easy to find out: 260 delivered.

I visited what I thought was their website: http://oneaviation.aero/
but the most recent item on it is about brake tests in 2012. No
delivery details there.

Additionally, it turns out that first Eclipse Aviation and then One
Aviation have become bankrupt.

But my original point remains unanswered: for short-range commuter or
taxi service operations, at what size of aircraft does the proportion
of the ticket price due aircrew cost excssed savings due to improved
airframe efficiency and reduced landing costs?


Maybe the Celera people have that kind of info on their website.

They don't, but its an interesting site anyway.
