Eclipse 550
The first deliveries of the Eclipse 550, a modernised and upgraded version of the 500, were made in March 2014 and it was immediately hugely popular. It was designed from the beginning to offer the best value for money on the corporate jet market, while maintaining decent comfort and performance. It is one of the most fuel efficient twin-engine jets on the planet, consuming a mere 59 gallons of fuel per hour. This explains its low operating costs and consequent availability at extremely competitive prices. The Eclipse 550 doesn't sacrifice anything in terms of performance to achieve such impressive fuel efficiency as it still offers a high maximum cruise speed and a range of over 2000km, easily enabling it to connect major European cities.The Eclipse is a true air taxi, perfect for short-haul flights for up to 4 passengers at an unbeatable price.
