Looks like Honda is a little late in the game!

I wonder how much early positions on the Eclipse 500 are going to be selling for?

With over 2,500 orders/$100,000 deposits i'll bet those early positions are going to be worth a bundle.

The possibilities are tremendous -- how about an air ambulance service?

Wasn't this the Jet that was targeted to the sub $1 million price range?

The early positions are in at just under $1mil but with inflation I think that they are at about $1.2mil now.

That also includes complete flight training and nothing extra to buy for the panel.
