Where it fits well
- 150 kt cruise supports credible cross-country touring.
- 480 nm advertised range creates a practical planning radius of about 322 nm with 4 occupants.
- 853 kg realistic payload proxy and 14 seats define the usable cabin mission.

The ownership trade-off
A highly advanced, quiet and efficient medium twin, but acquisition, support programmes and mission configuration require institutional budgets.
Cost picture at different usage
- 40 hours/year: about €602k per year ( €15050 per flight hour all-in)
- 80 hours/year: about €754k per year ( €9425 per flight hour all-in)
- 120 hours/year: about €906k per year ( €7550 per flight hour all-in)
- 180 hours/year: about €1.13m per year ( €6300 per flight hour all-in)
Older examples add calendar-driven maintenance: a 2011-built airframe is estimated at €767k per year at 80 hours. Condition, engine time remaining and avionics matter more than the year itself — price the aircraft in front of you, not the model.
Limitations to price honestly
- A highly advanced, quiet and efficient medium twin, but acquisition, support programmes and mission configuration require institutional budgets.
- €450k fixed annual planning base before flying a single hour.
- Component life and mission-specific landing permissions dominate real-world utility.
Recommended missions
- Family and small-group touring with a weight-and-balance check for every trip.
- Short and medium regional trips, accepting fuel stops when conditions require.
- Recreational, training or personal travel where operating efficiency is more important than airline-like speed.
