Good going Morgan. I just cannot understand why he bought that airplane over a Embraer Phenom. From every account I have heard the Sino is a peice of garbage. Heck, even a HondaJet would have been a better option. Side note. I had the pleasure of flying next to Mr. Freeman in First Class once coming to NY from CLT on USAirways. Very kind man. Quite humble.

He definitely should have gone with the Phenom!

The Sino is something like a 460 knot airplane with over 2000nm range (I could be off but if memory serves it's pretty close to that)...and can maintain sea level cabin pressure up to FL410...he likes that because he's fresh as soon as he gets on the ground. There was an article in Business Jet Traveller I believe it was where he talked about the Sino. I must agree, it would make sense to get something with better support being that the Sino has been tossed around between various investors. Still a pretty neat airplane though.
