It's not the latest model or the fastest, but it's still a winner on several important counts.

“Since the global COVID-19 pandemic began, more people have been looking to private aviation as a means of traveling while limiting the spread of the virus,” said Thrive CEO Curtis Edenfield. “The delivery of these new aircraft will help us support increased demand and provide our clients with the well-being and peace of mind they seek for their families and businesses.”

Thrive Aviation is based at Henderson (Nevada) Executive Airport and has a 21,000-square-foot hangar at McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas.
