Piper PA-47 PiperJet

Piper Aircraft was one of the companies that tried to bring a single engine bizjet on the market. While the concept aircraft of the PiperJet - official designation PA-47-2400J - has flown, the development was stopped before any production aircraft (to be named Altaire) were built.

The windows look like those on the Piper Malibu.
