Generally only if maximum gross take off weight is over 12,500 lbs. Which is not only arbitrary but kinda silly, but I digress. Our newer plane is constructed primarily of carbon fiber. So even though it has a slightly larger cabin, much more baggage space, same range and a little more speed it weighs over 6,000 lbs less than the all metal older jet. It also burns 25 - 30% less fuel. Some operate theirs with two crew but only one is required by the FAA provided the pilot completed the somewhat more strenuous single pilot qualification.
I didn't know that. I thought it was more of a safety factor because when things start going wrong in a jet they go wrong in a hurry. Now I know. Sounds like a nice plane!
Well it doesn't carry the perceived prestige of a Gulfstream or similar sized aircraft. But it's an improvement over the older one and you can't beat my work environment and quality of life. Unless maybe you win the lottery.
Luke, can you get Cuban cigars in that part of Miami? Probably a dumb question... I do love a nice Cuban Cohiba, Romeo y julieta, etc.,
