Where it takes you
Coast-to-coast and longer continental trips non-stop, with eight to nine passengers.
What matters when choosing
- How long your typical trips are, and whether you need non-stop continental range.
- Cabin height and comfort on longer flights.
- For out-of-production types, parts and support availability.
What drives the cost
- Fuel and maintenance per flight hour
- Two-pilot crew costs
- Engine programme enrolment, which strongly affects older aircraft
- Hangar, insurance and training

Frequently asked
Midsize or super-midsize?
Super-midsize jets add range and cabin width. If your longest trips are under about 3,000 nm, a midsize jet may be enough.
Is an out-of-production aircraft a risk?
Not necessarily, but parts, support and resale need checking. EDAERO looks at these during the market assessment.
Can EDAERO crew a midsize jet?
Yes, EDAERO sources pilots and cabin crew.
