I have not flown it yet, but have had the cockpit tour with the demonstrator pilot. It is well thought out and I would love to fly it as my works machine. Downside, the range figures quoted are all calculated at well below cruise speeds that we would use. Fuel burn is a little suprising once you crank up the speed. Pity, I would like one.....
