I don't see VLJs as a very positive development and I could be wrong, but I think it will prove to be a niche market. I say this b/c they may go high and go fast but as far as useful load, they leave something to be desired. You get bags or range, but not both. The VLJ market in my opinion will be an owner flown market plagued with drama. As far as 135 VLJs...I think the people who can afford to charter one would prefer to go first class on something big or charter a real jet (like a Beech 400 with a proven safety record.) Also, the VLJ market scares me a bit in terms of support including build quality. I saw 505EA which is an Eclipse Prototype. I think it inspires the wannabe jet pilot more than those who know what it's all about. I was VERY unimpressed with the build quality. It sort of looked home built (not a good way.)
Call me a doubter...but I doubt it.
