Where it fits well
- 210 kt cruise supports credible cross-country touring.
- 940 nm advertised range creates a practical planning radius of about 677 nm with 2 occupants.
- 1917 kg realistic payload proxy and 2 seats define the usable cabin mission.

The ownership trade-off
Purpose-built cargo volume and simple loading are excellent, but airline-scale support and an unpressurized cabin make ownership highly specialized.
Cost picture at different usage
- 40 hours/year: about €378k per year ( €9450 per flight hour all-in)
- 80 hours/year: about €476k per year ( €5950 per flight hour all-in)
- 120 hours/year: about €574k per year ( €4783 per flight hour all-in)
- 180 hours/year: about €721k per year ( €4006 per flight hour all-in)
Older examples add calendar-driven maintenance: a 2011-built airframe is estimated at €509k 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
- Purpose-built cargo volume and simple loading are excellent, but airline-scale support and an unpressurized cabin make ownership highly specialized.
- €280k fixed annual planning base before flying a single hour.
- Approximate 1100 m take-off requirement must be checked against runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading.
Recommended missions
- Solo or two-person flying where low complexity matters more than cabin capacity.
- Short and medium regional trips, accepting fuel stops when conditions require.
- Time-sensitive business travel where dispatch reliability justifies the cost.
