I hope that thing glides well because I would hate to have an engine failure on a single engine aircraft.

Great looking little plane. What does one cost?

I saw a mock-up of this plane's cabin once. I'm a broad shouldered man and it was very cramped for me. The glass cockpit looked good, though. Would love to have one.

A single engine VLJ makes perfect sense. I think the failure rate among piston engine singles is higher than the failure rate among business jets.
Honda announced that they will build the HF120, so there will be a nice turbofan engine to power VLJs.
