It probably would have but word got out that Todd LIttledick inspected a few of the sub assemblies and sales plumitted, he talked his way in but truth of the matter is he struggles to read a micrometer, and he tends to talk about dimensions in fractions like the hole size is 3/16 not .185. He was hell bent on working aviation when they kicked him off the RES.

yEAH THAT ONE INSPECTOR Todd Lttledick he pencil whipped the damn thing from start to finish, that jerk couldn't tell a Ms 20470 from a Nas 1097 he was about as airworthy as a brick.

Werner: Thanks for your comments. The flight plane has to be files separately but I use foreflight so it is pretty seamless and can be done from the cockpit. As far a bankruptcy, they are out of it now and it has caused no issues. It is a very affordable and great little jet. g

Ralph: It is not a software glitch; Dry motoring is necessary for a number of reasons. 1) if you have a hot/hung start it is used to clear any fuel from the combustion chamber, 2) when you want to put a load on the electrical system without starting (i.e. overvoltage GPU situation where the GPU will not connect. Thanks for your comment. The Garmin package is superior and more user friendly than the Avio thus the switch.

No V1 or V2 just Vr due to centerline thrust.

@@gkwebster Hi Greg, Could you clarify - center-line thrust even though it is a twin-jet?

@@nevillec5252 stall speed is less than VMC.

@@gkwebster Hi Greg, Thanks for the response. I may be mistaken of course, but I understood Vmca to be less than Vso in the Eclipse 500 (hence no V2 published). Regarding your earlier comment about center-line thrust, is the yaw during a V1-cut substantially less in the Eclipse than in other light jets, say the Citation Mustang or CJ1? Is this inherent to the Eclipse aircraft design or due to some sort of rudder-bias incorporated? Thanks.

its just better :) full FADEC, and integrates cabin pressurization etc

You are welcome Bart! I am an Eclipse instructor with over 5000 hrs in type, and an FAA Designated Pilot Examiner. Call me to discuss training or any question whatsoever about the Eclipse. g 949 254-4300

Wow, you have come from a commentor to an actual owner and student! Congratulations Bart! We really enjoy working with you and look forward to getting you type rated. Care to share with other folks about your experience so far? g

If I said that, sorry. T/O weight of 6000 lbs

Great info. Thanks for sharing Sir

Why wouldn't it be? Honestly curious as I really don't know.

@@kriswilson5305 Because the company that made them went bankrupt and shut down.

Yes it is the chief production inspector Todd Littledick, he is still on the toilet at the tortilla factory asking if its lunch time so he can go burn one.

I cannot wait for you to take delivery of your new 550 either! What a great plane. Irrespective of if you are training with me or not, please feel free to contact Robin or me with any question you may have; we have lots of memory tricks to help you get through it all. We also have some great tricks to remember "knobology" in an iFMS approach environment. g

We will be paying you a visit sir! I appreciate your knowledge!!

Yes, that will be a very nice feature. Avio is not difficult to learn, it is just not Garmin logic which we have all come to appreciate.

Unfortunately, or fortunately, Avio is NOT a display with a few discreets and an air source plugged into it like a Garmin. It is truly integrated with everything on the airplane. Replacing Avidyne was a monumental task in just under 12 months because of that integration architecture.
