Hello, I am here to find who may have interest in either investing in the company, make an initial purchase at a discount, or would simply be interested in the concept in general.

Highlights of what we would be developing:

-6 passenger composite airframe, pressurized 6.5 psi, slightly larger inside than a PA46
-1000 lb useful full of fuel
-Airstair for easy entry and exit (no squeezing in a small pilot door)
-FAR 23 flight characteristics
-PT6 powered airframe with a multitude of engine options from small to medium form engines
-Cruise speeds of 285-325 ktas (based on choice of engine)
-roughly 7.7 nm/gal with a 1300-1600 nm range
-fits inside most T-hangars (~31 ft long and ~35 ft wing span, roughly)
-Kit to be able to be built for around $1m including build assist (could be built for under $1m depending on choice of engine)
-Allow customer choice and personalization by allowing freedom to chose engine/avionics etc of their choosing, whether you buy from us or not (like a homebuilt is supposed to be)

The gentleman I am working with has extensive experience designing and building this very type of airplane. I can give more information to anyone interested in the project. We have gone over the project at some length and know that the pricing can be done.

Again, we are looking for investors as well as people that would be interested in the kit for purchase once it is developed.

Thank you
