It will be interesting to see how all of these VLJs


First, it will be interesting to see if there will be " all of these".

John,

No. D-Jet's engine is buried in the lower aft fuselage.
Global Hawk and C-Jet engine are atop the fuselage between av-tail.


I see what you mean. The cabin shape reminds me of the D-Jet, as does
the general concept.

They are only going to be $1M each. Maybe if I start saving my lunch
money...

NASA offered me $15,000 to take down my web site. Take a look and see why.

It's nice. Looks like a cross between an F-117 and a Bonanza.

It looks to me like the thrust line from the engine would pitch the
nose down?

quasi-engineer mode off

Probably to counteract the tail-heavy configuration. Not that pitching the
nose _up_ is desirable in any aircraft's configuration... can you name
some that do this?

The jet exhaust exits parallel to the airframe centerline.

Has anyone else noticed that of all the other jets mentioned in the press
stories, the proposed Piper is not mentioned?
