Main trade-off	Very fast and fuel-efficient for a training twin, but specifications remain preliminary and the aircraft is not yet an established used-market product.	The training-market standard for multi-engine time, but acquisition cost and two-engine reserves make personal ownership hard to justify.	Extremely efficient for a twin and ideal for training, but payload and single-engine climb are modest.
