Buying Tips
- ✓ VLJs have lower operating costs than light jets — $800-$1,500/hr all-in — but engine programs (JSSI, MSP) are still essential to manage overhaul costs.
- ✓ Eclipse 500/550 has the lowest acquisition cost but limited service network — verify access to authorized service centers near your base.
- ✓ Cirrus Vision Jet SF50 includes CAPS whole-airplane parachute — a unique safety feature that also lowers insurance costs.
- ✓ Single-pilot certified means lower crew costs, but budget $20K-$30K for initial type rating training.

What is the cheapest jet I can buy?
The Eclipse 500 is the cheapest jet aircraft available, with used examples starting around $800K-$1.2M. The Cessna Citation 500/501 (older Citation I) can be found from $200K-$400K but has higher operating costs and dated avionics.
Can I fly a VLJ single-pilot?
