THE AIRCRAFT

Meet Eclipse 550

The 550 continued the Eclipse 500 design under Eclipse Aerospace and later One Aviation. It retains the compact, low-wing, twin-engine configuration and six-seat cabin arrangement of that lineage. The real aircraft was certified for single-pilot operation. Simulator avionics and support generations are listed with the particular developer product.
