firstly - the engine problems were before the flight test - i thikn they had a problem getting a good start 100% of the time - needed adjusting for the high altitude start environment i guess.
secondly - the engines ared a new design only ground run so far - until first flight.....but now going on williams sabreliner for further evaluation
finally - first flight parameters were no flaps (hence long ground run on take off), and gear locked down (hence climb performance etc)
Eclipse think they are on schedule and its all going fine - good luck to them!
