I'm disappointed by this jet, $45m (introductory price) for something that's not as fast as the G650, not as good looking as the 7x, i saw in the PowerPoint presentation it uses "airline standard engines" which are Safran Snecma Silvercrest turbofans.
They say it has a bigger cross section but who will notice, 1 inch more head room and 2 inches more shoulder room over a G650?
Which airline uses those engines?
The flight deck looks good with an FBW side stick controller, an HUD for both seats but what i'm finding interesting is the ability for the seats to recline by 160 degrees, are we going to have pilots sleeping on the flight deck in mid flight? It has rather complex wings which look like a scaled down rip off the 787 wings.
It could be a good bird, but I don't see it.
