On what basis do you feel it is "surprisingly competitive"? Are there fuel consumption or operating cost figures available? The aircraft has been talked about for four years or more; if it is based on the MA600, "competitive" is not an adjective I would use, and if it is a new design, it is still perhaps 3-4 years from entry into service. I wouldn't label it a "game changer" just yet!
