ONE Aviation's Eclipse 550 will now come with a comprehensive five-year aircraft warranty and a five-year Eclipse Advantage maintenance programme as standard. The Eclipse Advantage programme covers the cost of all scheduled maintenance inspections on an Eclipse Jet for the first five years or 1,000 flight hours. “The Eclipse 550 is already the highest, fastest, most technologically advanced, low-cost jet currently on the market,” states ceo Alan Klapmeier.

“To further distinguish the 550, we created the Eclipse Advantage programme to remove any uncertainty or fear about the actual cost to own and operate a new Eclipse. It simplifies aircraft ownership and provides clarity, convenience and peace of mind for our customers.

“With the reliability of the 550 now being established, we felt that the time was right to increase company support, and make the costs of aircraft ownership more transparent and predictable. Eclipse Advantage does just that, by covering all scheduled inspections for the first five years. This scheme, combined with a full five-year warranty on parts and labour, clearly communicates to our customers that ONE Aviation stands behind its products.”

ONE Aviation has also announced an SE (Special Edition) factory renewed version of the Eclipse 500, to replace the Total Eclipse series. Substantially upgraded to include features that are present on the 550, it comes with a three-year warranty and maintenance programme.
