Nice video, Max! I have owned and flown an Eclipse jet for over 11 years. It's the same configuration as the one in your video. You absolutely nailed it when you stated that you have a grin on your face every time you fly it. I've been flying for 50 years and have flown many types, but, like you, this is my favorite. I pinch myself every time I fly it and never forget how fortunate I am to be able to do so. It's the perfect personal jet.
It seems like every pilot who flew the Eclipse loves it! But there are a lot of people out there who only heard stories about Eclipse and spread a lot of negative myths about it.
No, @stresswes, I have never been AOG due to lack of parts in the 12 years I have had the airplane. The new owner has done a great job getting vendor relationships back on track.
I remember sitting in one of these in Oshkosh 2005 I believe. Great to see that there still is a more up to date version of it available. Great alternative to a C510 Mustang.
I would pick Eclipse over Mustabg any day. By the way I do have a video about Mustabg on my Channel ruclips.net/video/7nsApPUJBaE/видео.htmlsi=_-kJ_HXTPoFZ8g_E

Super review. I have flown a 550 for 6 years and 1,000 hours. It has been a tremendous personal aircraft. I have had 2 AOG episodes. The part situation has improved substantially. To upgrade in capabilities I would have to double my costs of both capitol and operating expenses.
Thanks for sharing your experience! That's much better AOG statistics than in a lot of comparable airplanes. Out of my experience I get most of AOG's in Premiers.
@@stresswes now there are no issues. In fact Eclipse has very good support. There were issues years ago, but you can always find parts if you look hard enough 😉
Best eclipse jet video I've seen- even better than the ones made by folks trying to sell you one. I like that you pointed out the only advantage Cirrus has is their marketing team. Why anyone would want an underpowered single engine jet baffles me.
Marketing works… People buy jets based on emotion vs common cense. Anyone familiar with jet basics would understand that jets reach efficiency at high 30’s and 40’s. SF-50 has turboprop performance.
@@MaxJetRev I would argue that SF-50 is lagging to turboprop performance. I'd rather have a TBM or Pilatus for 50 reasons than a Cirrus jet. I guess that is why there are so many Cirrus jets for sale....
Seems like you departed from KFXE. Worked at a really shotty FBO there back in 2015. We had an eclipse stop in and it was my first time seeing one up close. Really cool machine and the cockpit is perfection!
@@MaxJetRev Worse, South East. Back in 2015 it was known as Sano Jet Center (vomit). Tried getting a job at Banyan to no avail. Had interviews for Atlantic in both Boca and Palm that were no go's.
@@Helicopterpilot16 I remember this one. Now it's Executive Jet. They are trying, doing little improvements here and there.

Generally Maintanace cost (including parts) on average over 3-5 years will run you $50-70k per year if you do maintenance wisely with trusted mechanics. What do you currently operate?
Hey Max! Just came across your channel and loved this video on the Eclipse. I have a friend/client who is wanting to move from a turbo commander to an Eclipse. Would love to have a conversation with you about any 550’s that you know are available, or will be coming available soon. We are based out of KLXT but can access KMKC very easily. Safe travels my friend!

@@unpilot1 anti throttles are cool. Antilock brakes are not that big of a deal in the Eclipse since it touches down at a speed of around 80 knots. Unless you go really crazy on the brakes it’s hard to skid.

I am astonished that transitioning pilots need not have an multiengine rating in order to get type rated in the Eclipse. Where can I look this up to read for myself?
If you get an Eclipse type rating you will get multiengine rating limited to centerline thrust. Eclipse has been made with safety in mind to be pilot's airplane. It's almost as easy to fly as SR22. What is your current aviation experience?
@@MaxJetRev ASEL plus Instrument Airplane, 408.5 hrs total time, mostly in a G1000-equipped Cessna 172 (rented). Not a lot of aviation experience, but I've covered the basics. My next step would be transition training to an SR20, if only I could find one locally for rent, and with air conditioning (extremely hot where I live until November). Plenty of Cirrus Standardized Instructor Pilots in my area, so that's not an issue. And I still find it hard to believe that the asymmetrical thrust associated with flying an Eclipse with only one operational engine does not require the training necessary for a traditional multiengine rating. It's not a Cessna Skymaster or an Adam 500. Hard to wrap my head around this.

Eclipse concept is very well thought out with modern user experience concepts. A lot other manufacturers forget that easy to fly planes are safe and instead use off the shelf solutions from older planes with 50’s tech. Hopefully the new Eclipse owners will be able to restart production and make some cool upgrades to the plane.
Love your video and all your replies How do you get certified for the eclipse after getting ppl in a single engine What would be next steps to get certified for eclipse as your private plane
Thank you. You need to get an instrument rating, preferably in SR22 to get use to higher speed. Once you have private pilot and instrument rating it would be nice to etc get 200-300 hours of real world experience flying a Cirrus in actual IFR, cross country flights etc. Then you may begin Eclipse type rating training. Multi engine rating is not required. What’s your current experience?
