I agree, this is really sweet. But I have to play devil's advocate here.
What's to prevent a group of jihad psychos from taking off in one of these?
I think any Eclipse airline is still going to have to screen passengers. Worse yet there is no cabin door to block access to pilot seats.
Believe me I want the convenience as badly as anybody, and I certainly don't want my privacy invaded everytime I decide to fly. As a matter of fact, I've been thinking of getting a pilot license myself just to avoid the ordeal at airports. Wish I could afford one of these, or maybe take a partnership in one?

Hostage, you are there target market. One of there goals is to have let say 4 pilots co-buy one and sorta time-share it. At 200K apiece, it look like a steal compared to a brand new Cessna 172. You hit the nail on the head.
