The Eclipse 500 is a very light jet (VLJ) produced by Eclipse Aerospace (formerly Eclipse Aviation). A compact, six-seat twin-engine jet, it is designed for personal and business travel and makes an excellent air-taxi at a competitive price. It offers a range of around 1,125 nautical miles and a top speed of around 375 knots, with advanced avionics and navigation systems. Known for its small footprint, low operating cost and efficiency, it still delivers a comfortable cabin experience.
