Default Eclipse 500 delivering

FIRST CUSTOMER ECLIPSE 500 DELIVERED
Eclipse delivered its first customer aircraft December
31, at its headquarters in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Ramping
up to fulfill the backlog of more than 2,500 aircraft, the
company already has 37 additional aircraft on its production
line in various stages of assembly. Seven of these aircraft
have completed final assembly and are being prepared for
delivery.

The first customer Eclipse 500 was delivered to
co-owners David Crowe, a private owner, and Jet-Alliance, a
shared jet ownership company in Westlake Village,
California. While Crowe plans use his time with the jet
primarily for recreation, Jet-Alliance will be using it to
serve the needs of their growing list of co-ownership
clients. For more information visit www.eclipseaviation.com.
