VLJs The new doctor killer?

Let's just hope that the Government do not ground them after a streak of accidents like they did the Malibu. They investigate it and they were all pilot error the plane fly just fine!

They are cheap enough. My answer is yes they will be the next Dr. Killa
 
I believe the Cirrus is already taking this title from the V tail. I'm sure VLJ's will find their own niche at killing under qualified pilots also. Hopefully these companies have great lawyers.
 
i helped certify 2 of the vljs (before i left) and i still talk to the company i used to work for who is working each one of them. no i'm not gonna supply a link and i'm certainly not gonna tell you who i worked for or what i did for confidentiality reasons. if you don't want to listen thats fine. if anyone is seriously considering buying one or flying one as a pilot for an air taxi please get your affairs in order, and when it crashes on you (i fully expect a 50/50 share of equipment malfunctions as well as pilot errors) please steer away from the rest of us on the way down.

i was deeply disappointed with both aircraft i saw, and i'm pretty sure there will be a number of them balled up on fire over the next year.

i expect these to be worse than the cirrus 20/22 and i expect a giant mess of dead rich morons who fly on the weekends.

with that said, if you are a lawyer or grave digger or work for a charity (who these rich folks seem to leave most of their money to in the event of their death) you'll be applauding because you'll have lots of work.

Wow, cold as ice man. Can you at least expand on what systems you expect to malfunction on each aircraft without disclosing the manufacturer?
