Default Cheap Jets!!!!!

People (non-pilots) hear about a "cheap" jet, and have a mental image of a Encore, 31A, or Beechjet with a $1 million price tag.
The reality is that the Eclipse is about the size of a BE-58.

It angers me that this BS talk about "VLJs" filling up the sky is raising the talk of user fees that would economically harm my life.

Eclipse has fell short of their claims time after time, even claiming the airplane was "Certified" when it was only preliminary. Cessna has the real deal up and running---but Cessna doesn't preach this stupid crap about flying to the grocery store in a "VLJ" and other BS.
Cessna does not even use the stupid term "VLJ".
