The Eclipse 550 costs only $2.995MM in it’s standard configuration (the only twin-engine jet in the world under $3MM). And the Eclipse 550 is the least expensive twin-engine jet on the planet to own and operate.
The Eclipse 550 is the right jet to fly if you are concerned about budget. And who isn’t? Why fly a large, fuel-guzzling plane full of empty seats? Be efficient. Fly the Eclipse 550.
The Eclipse 550 is the most fuel-efficient twin-engine jet on the planet, consuming a mere 48-59 gallons of fuel per hour in flight while at cruise. This amazing performance indicator means that you can fly 430 mph at only twice the fuel burn as a large SUV traveling on the interstate.
A large SUV gets only 16 miles per gallon. Traveling at 70 mph, that’s 4.375 gallons per hour. In order to go 1,125 nm (1,295 statute miles) it would take the SUV 18.5 hours. Time multiplied by burn equals 81 gallons of fuel burned. The Eclipse 550 will get you there in 3 hours and will only burn 144 gallons of fuel. Impressive.
Fly in pressurized comfort above the weather and avoid the obstacles to your journey. Fly the Eclipse 550. Get there.
According to the National Business Aviation Association, 70% of all private flights are fewer than 750 nautical miles and carry three or fewer passengers, a mission profile that suits the Eclipse 550 perfectly. Rather than wasting money flying empty seats from one meeting to the next, the Eclipse 550 maximizes dollars spent on corporate travel.
The Eclipse 550 fits most missions. Want to see if it fits yours? Take a look at Range Maps and the Eclipse Mission Profiler through the links below.
Powered by two P&WC 610F engines, each producing 900 lbs of thrust (1,800 lbs total), the Eclipse 550 can maintain a maximum cruise speed of 375 ktas (430 mph).
It means that you can get in your jet and fly where you need to go quickly, knowing that your jet has the power to get you there in time.
The Eclipse 500 Special Edition costs only $2.195MM in it’s standard configuration. And the Eclipse Jet is the least expensive twin-engine jet on the planet to own and operate.
The Eclipse Jet is the most fuel-efficient twin-engine jet on the planet, consuming a mere 48-59 gallons of fuel per hour in flight while at cruise. This amazing performance indicator means that you can fly 430 mph at only twice the fuel burn as a large SUV traveling on the interstate.
Flying your jet at 41,000 ft keeps you above the weather: above clouds, rain, icing and other detriments to safety and efficiency while flying. Increased altitude also saves fuel as it increases the range of your Eclipse Jet.
70% of all GA flights are fewer than 750 nm and carry three or fewer passengers (according to the NBAA and GAMA), a mission profile that suits the Eclipse Jet perfectly. Rather than wasting money flying empty seats from one meeting to the next, the Eclipse Jet maximizes dollars spent on corporate travel.
