Is this the competitor to the Citation Mustang? :)

It's one of several, although I believe the Mustang was announced after development of the Eclipse had started, and the Eclipse (if the current price point holds true) will come in at about half the Mustang's cost. I believe of all the VLJ's (Very Light Jets) on the table, the Eclipse is the only one at this advanced stage of testing.Now that the second prototype is flying, I will probably upgrade my FSDS Eclipse to better capture the shape and size of the engines. There's quite a few new shots and a video of the second prototype. -John
