Excel-Jet Story in Pilot Mag

GroundedOne  2010-01-05 23:56:12

Quoted from Pilot Mag Dec 2009

"Despite a crash in 2006 and a general aviation and business community that has left very light jets for dead, the prototype Sport Jet has flown once again and the company, Excel Jet Ltd., is reworking the next generation."

I was not aware that the Sport-Jet has flown again!?!?!? I know sensationalism is part of journalism to sell magazines, but this is irresponsibility..how does a quote like this make it into a magazine...Correct me if I am wrong, but from what I have seen/read all Bornhofen has is a fuselage....Since when do mock-ups fly?

It is this over-hyped B.S. that doomed the VLJ market in the first place...C'mon Pilot Mag..a little responsibility Please!!! SMH!!!(shaking my head!)
