For customers looking for a cost-effective option to get from A to B, we often recommend a turboprop option. In comparison, we also often offer a faster jet option, and the Eclipse 550 is particularly well suited as the price is often comparable to much slower turboprops.
What is the required taxiway length for take-off and landing of the Eclipse 550?
The taxiway length required for take-off and landing on the Eclipse 550 depends on several factors, including baggage and passenger weight, environmental conditions such as temperature and altitude, and other operating parameters.
The Eclipse 550 not only impresses with its sleek and attractive design, but also with impressive performance figures that make it an attractive option for business travellers and private aircraft owners alike. Similar to its predecessor (Eclipse 500), the Eclipse 550 requires a take-off distance of only 700-800 metres. Landing performance is equally impressive, with a required landing distance of 850-950 metres. This feature makes the Eclipse 550 particularly versatile and enables landings at airports with limited infrastructure. It is also important to consider whether the aircraft is operated commercially or privately, as this strongly influences the required standards.
What is the current market-price for the Eclipse 550?
The purchase price for a used Eclipse 550 can vary depending on factors such as the age of the aircraft, total flight hours and overall condition. Research in 2024 shows that models from 2015 and 2016 are available for as little as €1.5 million to €2 million.
