You beat me too it. We were going supersonic just months ago, and now we're going to the land of 175 Kts and below 10,000'.

So many unknowns right now (FAA cert, reliability, region of use, mission, LZs, and ability to carry the pax bags) many knows (think union and contract) that time will tell.
Grab a tub of 🍿 and sit back to watch.

Single pilot as with two the useless load won’t be useful.
150 Mile range isn’t even enough to cross the State of Florida East-West and have reserves.
Unless your alternate is next door.
What routing do you put in your flight plan, Emergency Direct?

My guess.....lower the hiring minimums (again), and put the low time guys in this to get the 1500 hrs and then step them up to the "real" baby jets. OR.....they know this is going to die on the vine (like the supersonic) and just using this as free publicity. Option 2 would be pure genius.
