Eclipse 500
Perhaps it would be more helpful to tell the OP why not to get an Eclipse and why to get a King Air instead.
I am no expert on either but there is plenty of info on the Eclipse (and even more on the KA) available all over the web. The latest Eclipse versions seem to have ironed out many of the problems of the earlier ones However, you would really need to do your homework before getting one (or not). On the VLJ side of things I think I would prefer a Phenom 100. Much nicer cabin and the support from a big manufacturer. You can get a nice used one for two million if that's within your budget.

yea I am real
It's a funny situation I am thinking about grass strip but two days ago city goverment signed agreement to build Rw 1350 meters, so that I am thinking about jet now I used to have C501 It takes a lot of fuel and inspections cost too much ,so Eclipse probably will be ok.
Sylwia,
Please!!!...an Eclipse!!! for your location !!!
Please accept some reality in your situation.
1) Buy something that works for the money available
2) Has available, local engineering experience, and parts.
3) Has a crew pool of experienced pilots.
Kind regards.

If you are thinking of buying the Eclipse you either have;
a very short memory,
not been involved in aviation for long,
don't understand how to compare performance data,
not considered the competitors
looked only at purchase price, and
need to get your head examined!

mirovinchi,
The same fellow also started at least one other thread asking about other aircraft and received detailed answers.
Do a search on his name.
However, your information is good, so well done.

Hi sylwia137 rather than coming up with strange aircraft all the time we might be in a better position to help if you:
- let us know your budget
- your flight profile (where and how often)
- Use: private or commercial
