Passed an Eclipse jet yesterday

by "Mike" <nospam@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jun 29, 2008 at 08:14 PM

Flying opposite direction, of course.

I was flying on the Dallas side of the metroplex not too far from KADS. 
The 
TRACON called out the traffic and the plane was so small and moving so
fast 
it was impossible to see until we were quite close.  We passed about 1
mile 
or less off each other's right wing, level with us.  I wish they would
paint 
them with brighter colors.

I guess they have about 200 of them flying according to the Eclipse web 
site.  Thiis makes the second time I've seen one flying around the Dallas 
area.  It seems like I read somewhere the fractional and air taxi
operations 
are buying up most of the initial orders.
