Note, they have talked about this since 1997. Since then, there has been no development. Their focus is on Sport Aircraft, not the twin. Not the first time a plane has been announced, a prototype created, and then disappeared.

Don't hold your breath. That company is very flaky. I started a CH601HDS from that company. What a joke aircraft that was. Hand written notes on the drawings, over stated performance numbers, etc, etc. So I built an RV instead!

I would expect to see one of the under $1mm jets first. Sometime around 2012 to 2018.
