Raytheon Premier Jets - Opinions?

[Bandit60]

Last year I was talking to a pilot that was flying the Premier and he was telling me that this airplane is not a good airplane for a owner operator. He said there are alot of "gotcha's" on this airplane. If something goes wrong with the airplane the computers wont let you start the airplane. The problem is that some of these so-called problems are pilot induced and only a mechanic knows how to reset them. It so happens that the pilot telling me this was a mechanic.

I dont know if this is true but it is what he was telling me

A UK based Premier, s/n RB-79, N200PR ran off runway yesterday at Blackbushe EGLK where RWY length is 1342 x 46m (4400'x 150')

The a/c flew from Farnborough and was single-flown.

Funny you said this, I too have seen a Premier run off a runway. Windham Connecticut a guy smashed right through the localizer on the opposite side of the field when he landed with a stiff tailwind. Runway 4200x100
