This might be too easy, I'm not sure. But I snapped this at Double Eagle about 2 weeks ago.

Yeah, I guess it was too easy. Good call, BB.
 
Looks like a Cherokee 180 by the looks of the cowling.


Oh, wait a minute. You meant the one on the taxi way.:D


Not the best of pictures on my computer but it does look like an Eclipse. Maybe the small Citation?
 
yeppers - its the Eclipse 500. Radio was dead, so was the airport, so I got the following on Unicom:

Me: Eclipse, you mind if I get a pic of that there experimental?
Them: Nothing we can do to stop ya
Me: Thanks

Snapped the pic. They waved after I took the pic. They were doing touch and goes, but decided to make that one full stop with a taxi back. I'm surprised they're still doing T&Gs after their recent gear up
 
Well I cheated. I took a tour of the facility where they are made about two or three years ago. A friend of mine was courted for financial support. He declined the support.
 
I parked their support plane at SnF last year. Yea me. lol Always fun to put an MU-2 in reverse....
