The model offers combination of transcontinental reach, high speed (up to Mach 0.90), and excellent field performance (takeoff/landing capabilities), while carrying a large cabin. Simply Jet would highlight its capability to connect distant city pairs non-stop with flexibility, comfort, and reliability.
