Toyota toyed with aircraft for a while as well.  The corporate jet market is not something easily broken into.  Citation has a firm hold on the light jet market.  What I always think is funny is that everyone still calls any business jet a Lear.  Any more Lear is yesterday's news, and doesn't measure up to citation.  They even shut the production line down for a bit last year.

Hey Borta, what is the light jet that has raised wingtips and when it first rolled out, it could fly from N.Y. to Moscow without refueling? I can't remember the name or manufacturer, but I remember they were BIG bucks...
