Worth it?

Yes, worth it.

I have sat in the cockpit, at that time I believe the waiting list was years.

That is a very low price for a jet. And it comes with a parachute!

It is definitely an entry-level jet. I don't think there is any jet with a lower MSRP. I have been away from the market for a few years, but I wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't find one at that price, there is probably a premium to be paid to get one any time soon.

Ok...I would think the target customer is a prosperous small company or a few small companies in a group purchase?

What makes this better than a turboprop?

[Copper]

The speed might be about the same, maybe a little faster in the jet. There are turboprops that are much faster.

I don't know for sure, but the operating cost might be lower in this jet. A single private pilot can fly it, but you need an add-on endorsements for high-altitude and a type-rating for the jet. The parachute is a big deal.

Showing off the jet to your friends is worth something.
