Not sure where you got that figure from, Woodland Aviation is
advertising an '06 G58 for $1.26 million. I wonder how Beech can sell
it for that kinda dough when the Eclipse is 150kt faster for $1.4M
scratching head


The Eclipse will cost well north of $100K per year to operate, that's how
Beech sells Barons.


$600 an hour for 200 hours a year, yeah! A Beech or Baron at $200 (+/-) an
hour for 125 hours a year will certainly be less.

I wonder how many birds Beech sells to the crowd that can't qualify for a
Jet SP rating?
