      Who keeps prices a secret? You can get ballpark prices in everything from a Cirrus to a Gulfstream these days. Exact pricing varies based on options. A new PC-12 NGX will give you pressurization, retractable gear, and far higher speeds and range but will cost ~$6.8MM, to step up to a Swiss jet with the PC-24 you're looking at ~$13.5MM. If you prefer yours jets 'merican made, you can save some cash and pick up a CJ4 Gen 2 for ~$11.5MM; or you go South American with an Embraer Phenom 300E for about the same price but the best speed and range of the FAR23 jets. Stepping down to pistons, Cirrus publishes a price list and starts at $844,900 and goes up with options (e.g. $39,000 for air conditioning). Then there's the big iron, a G700 will set you back $81MM.

    I loved my time flying the caravan for Fedex and now I’m flying the PC 12 as a contract pilot but I really wanna fly this airplane and see how good it is in the cruise. I feel like I’m gonna get PC 12 performance but being able to fly to even shorter runways and carry even more stuff just maybe not as fast. I really wanna fly this plane!!

      The main accomplishment with this design is that the PC and TBM don't have to put flaps out to allow it to keep up. 😁 It would be nice in some moderate backcountry ops, but it does still take 900 hp to get 200 kts. at altitude.

      If Mahindra hadn't been so stupid, the GA10 would have been the poor man's competition, but even the 100 wasn't really a competitor to the caravan.
      Making a 200 kt executive version is probably more a competitor with the PC12, but with a bit more utility.
