ONE Aviation told employees last week that some will lose their jobs as the company phases out production of the Eclipse EA550 light jet and makes room for the new EA700 Project Canada aircraft still under development. ONE Aviation successfully completed the first flight of the proof-of-concept wing for the EA700 last month.
