FOREWORD he world is a battlefield for trade and commerce and is being led by the best managed companies competing for market share. In the wake of global economic and financial uncertainties, runways have become the new main streets for cities and towns to get down to business and soar once more. In today’s ever-changing and innovative world, aviation provides a vital link to economic opportunities at home and abroad. The market rewards knowledge integration, relationships, organizational agility, information, and speed. While some companies have developed strategies to mitigate the adverse impacts of today’s commercial air transport environment, the use of Business Aviation as a multiplier adds to the flexibility and expands the sphere of influence of these companies.

T

With the Indian economy on the verge of recovery, a number of companies will consider to purchase business aircraft to expand their businesses. Most aircraft buyers tend to get confused when it comes to purchase of business aircraft, as it is a complicated decision. All aircraft are good in their own respect. The trick, however, is to go for the aircraft which best suits your needs.

This guide hopes to serve as a valuable resource and standard reference for options available in business aircraft. With careful evaluation of many choices available, you can take advantage of the amazing benefits these business planes can offer.

Over the decades, civil aviation has been a catalyst for commerce. Where it takes us from here, only our imagination knows. I hope this handbook can add to the momentum of a sector, which surely deserves greater attention.

PERFORMANCE AND SPECIFICATION DATA CABIN SPACE: Internal length, height and width (in feet) are based on a completed interior. On “cabin-class” aircraft, the length is measured from the cockpit divider to the aft pressure bulkhead (or aft cabin bulkhead if unpressurized). For small cabin aircraft, the distance is from the cockpit firewall to the aft bulkhead. Height and width are the maximum within that cabin space. Interior height is measured at the centre of the cross section.

SEATING CAPACITY:

Crew + Typical Executive Seating/Maximum Seating. For example, 2+8/19 indicates, that the aircraft requires two pilots, there are eights seats in the typical executive configuration and the aircraft is certified for up to 19 passenger seats. Seating configurations vary on each aircraft. These numbers may vary for different operations (Corporate, Commercial, EMS, etc.).

RANGE:

Max range for Jets and Turboprops, is the NBAA IFR max range shown as full fuel with an average passenger load. For helicopters and piston fixed-wing aircraft, the max range figure is the maximum possible range with thirty-minutes or less fuel reserve to reflect the fact that airports are not always required. Actual range will be affected by speed, weather, selected options and other factors.

MAXIMUM CRUISE SPEED: Max cruise speed is at maximum continuous power, this may also be commonly referred to as High Speed Cruise. Normal cruise speed is the recommended cruise speed established by the manufacturer. This speed may also be the same as maximum cruise speed. Long range cruise is the manufacturers recommended cruise speed for maximum range.

TAKEOFF AND LANDING DISTANCE: Take-off distance is shown at Sea Level, ISA, Maximum Take-off Weight MTOW (to clear 50 feet obstacle) on a dry, level, paved runway. Landing distance is show at Sea Level, ISA, MLW, to clear 50 feet obstacle with nil reverse on a dry, level, paved runway.

MAXIMUM ENDURANCE: The maximum amount of time that a helicopter can remain airborne on a given amount of fuel. This decreases with an increase in weight, increases with an increase in altitude, varying in different configurations.Winds have no effect on max endurance.

$

PRICE: Price estimates are a factor of several attributes, customizations, delivery lead times, and cost of mandatory and optional DGCA equipment. thus actual prices will vary to our published prices. Ongoing price to be sourced from the manufacturers.

BUSINESS JET CLASSIFICATION

T

here are many ways to categorize today’s business jet, including price, weight, cabin size and range, all of which are important. Speed might be considered too. Obviously, no one attribute will be most important to every buyer. Some will give priority to range, others price and still others will demand sleeping quarters or the ability to take off and land on relatively short runways.

So just what are the generally accepted categories into which all these business jets are expected to neatly slot?

A buyer needs to compare models, more likely group aircraft, as easy classification is becoming all but impossible with so much fragmentation in the field and a blurring of traditional lines.

We have adjusted the criteria to group business jets primarily by cabin volume, judging this attribute to be the most important in the Indian Context.

Size and comfort aren’t the only factors that go into the purchasing decision, but they are often near the top of the list and correlate well with other attributes such as price and range. A bit of judgment goes into everything we do.

The Categorisation of Jets has been done on the basis of cabin volume (range - <400; 400-800; 8001000; 1000-2500 and > 2500 cubic feet), from Very Light Jets to Ultra Large cabin business jets.

AgustaWestland

A

gustaWestland is a helicopter company owned by Italy’s Finmeccanica with its main industrial activities based in Italy, UK, Poland and USA. The company develops and manufactures helicopters and other rotorcraft (aircraft that use

rotor blades to provide lift throughout an entire flight) specially designed for military and commercial uses. In the VIP/corporate sector AgustaWestland claims around 70% market share for multi-engine helicopters, thanks to the well established success of its range of light twins (AW109 Power and Grand/GrandNew types) and latest products such as the proven AW139 and the new generation AW169.

Innovation at AgustaWestland is marked by the need to have an idea that works, and executing that idea, with a ‘focus to master the present and have a vision for the future’.

That present and future for AgustaWestland is currently manifested in a helicopter family that includes the AW169 (mtow 10,000 pounds/4.5 ton class), the AW139 (mtow 14,110/14,991 pounds/6.4-6.8 ton) and the AW189 (mtow about 18,298 pounds/8.3 ton).

The AW139 has been in production since 2004 (with more than 650 delivered as per early 2014), while the AW189 was EASA certified in early February 2014 (more than 130 sold including firm orders, options and framework contracts as per early 2014). The AW169 made its first flight in May 2012 and has accumulated over 600 flight hours as for March 2014, certification is expected by the end of 2014 with deliveries starting immediately afterwards (over 120 sold including firm orders, options and framework contracts as per early 2014).

AgustaWestland unveiled its ‘Project Zero’ tilt rotor technology incubator in early 2013, giving an insight into what advanced rotorcraft of the future may look like. The technology incubator was designed and built in less than 6 months and has already secretly flown several times in 2011 and 2012, demonstrating AgustaWestland’s advanced rotorcraft technology. It differs from the American tilt-rotor aircraft in the way the tilting is achieved. The Project Zero’s rotors are located within the wings’ surfaces, which gives the rotors a bit of ducted fans appearance, making the transition from vertical to horizontal easier-the ducting provides a bit of the lifting force. Most importantly, Project Zero is an all-electric tilt-rotor. From the pilot’s perspective, the cockpits are fully digital with a more-or-less common layout, are ergonomically designed, and have ‘exceptional visibility’ or more correctly, fields of view. The AW139 has Honeywell avionics, while the AW169 and AW189 have an AgustaWestland’s general avionics architecture leveraging Rockwell Collins’ contribution. AgustaWestland has selected the first two products of the Rockwell Collins new Helisure avionics family, Helicopter Synthetic Vision System (HSVS) and Helicopter Terrain Awareness and Warning System (HTAWS), for its AW149, AW189, AW101 and AW169 helicopters and will have Pro Line Fusion for the AW609 TiltRotor.

In August 2008, two pilots, Scott Kasprowicz and Steve Sheik broke the world speed record for flying around the world in a helicopter in an AgustaWestland Grand helicopter.

The flight took eleven days seven hours and two minutes, breaking the current record by nearly six days.

enowned for manufacturing some of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finest and most luxurious corporate aircraft, Airbus has produced one of the most modern and comprehensive corporate jet families on the planet. Airbus has always been keen on extending the range of intercontinental flights and making the VVIP corporate fliersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; experience both aesthetically

exciting and completely comfortable. Innovations such as the domed ceilings, proper corridors and the customized in-cabin boardrooms are some of the most prominent contributions Airbus has made to the corporate jet industry. The ACJs or Airbus Corporate Jets have combined comfort with professionalism and have made in-flight luxury a reality. The single-aisle Airbus ACJ318, ACJ319, ACJ320 and ACJ321 have cabins that are approximately twice as wide as the traditional high-end business jets. Airbus offers the wide-bodied ACJ330, ACJ340, ACJ350 and ACJ380 to customers that want to carry more passengers, in greater comfort and space, with nonstop to the world range. All ACJs feature exactly the same cockpits equipped with fly-by-wire controls and satellite navigation. The ACJ family is also certified for Category 3B autoland capability. In short, the ACJs are all about a melodic amalgamation of luxury, reliability and functionality. Take a look!

he EC135 l’Hélicoptère par Hermès redefines the art of travelling and is the result of joint vision from the House of Hermès and Airbus Helicopters, two market leaders in totally different business fields. It combines the excellence of Airbus Helicopters’ twin-engine EC135 with the savoir-faire of Hermès, which has accompanied discerning travellers

for more than 170 years. The French fashion house known best for its ultra-high-end leather handbags, shoes and accessories.

For that special buyer who demands nothing less than the ultimate in luxury and comfort aloft, designers at Hermès, rendered an interior space dominated by rich brown leather and featuring an attractive exterior paint scheme highlighted by classic Hermès orange accents. Striving for perfection, more than 150 design changes of the interior and the exterior of the helicopter make it a unique flying experience embedded in Hermès’ distinctive design signature.

But there’s more to this interior than good looks and high-end materials. The Hermès EC135 also uses fabrics and leathers that are intended to soften ambient noise and vibration.

In addition, consoles, drawers and cabinets have been recessed or placed entirely out of view, and a sliding glass partition separates the passenger area and cockpit, enhancing privacy while still allowing natural light to enter. Overhead air-conditioning ducts have been centre-aligned across the ceiling for a cleaner look, rendering immaculate presentation and elegance to this particular aircraft.

Sliding doors on the helicopter open to reveal an interior configuration that is pure, light-filled and unexpectedly spacious.

The landing gear has been redesigned to allow for easier and more elegant access to the cabin. This twin engine multi-mission helicopter can hold five passengers plus a pilot and luggage, with top speed of 254 kmph.

Helicopters on the EC225 include modular design of the mechanical assemblies, use of composite materials, state of the art avionics, including LCD Multi-Functions Displays, Vehicle Monitoring System and AFCS. Powered by two TurbomecaMakila 2A1 engines, the EC225’s main gear box and 5-blade rotor give this rotorcraft the ability to carry a variety of payloads, along with excellent range and fast cruise speeds.

Each engine provides 1,566kw of take-off power, representing an increase of 15 per cent power compared to the Makila 1A2 fitted on earlier versions of the AS332 Super Puma. The EC225’s fast cruise speed is 262-kmph and has a maximum range of 887-km.

One of the biggest changes is the five-bladed main rotor, instead of the Puma’s four. This enhances performance considerably. The blades are of composite materials having different shapes, particularly at the tips.

Super Puma’s cabin can be laid out in a business class arrangement or luxuriously furnished for VIP transportation.

BEECHCRAFT

he Beechcraft Corporation, earlier known as the Hawker Beechcraft Corporation, is headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, United States of America. Now a part of Textron Aviation, the company forged by a merger of Cessna and Beechcraft.

The first business jet from Beechcraft is the Model 17—the classic Beechcraft ‘Staggerwing’ and was

followed by Model 18 ‘Twin Beech.’ The most revolutionary light plane was the distinctive, V-tailed V-35 Bonanza. It was a fast, light, comfortable and an easy-to-fly four-seater that made personal transportation in light airplanes a reality.

However, the Baron, launched in 1961 turned out to be the real twin version of the Bonanza. Light, fast and manoeuvrable, the Baron was everything the Twin Bonanza wasn’t. This airplane was introduced when President Dwight Eisenhower was in office.

The introduction of the King Air brand in the early 1960s was the start of a dominant market presence for Beechcraft in the private twin turboprop market. The company introduced the Model 90 Beech King Air that went on to establish itself as the industry standard in corporate jet-props.

Today, Beechcraft designs, builds and supports aircrafts like the King Air turboprops and the pistonengine Baron and Bonanza business jets. The company has gone on to build more than 54,000 aircraft and more than 36,000 continue flying even today.

More King Air’s have been sold around the world than all of the competition put together. Beechcraft celebrated 50th anniversary of the first flight (January 20th, 1964) of its King Air.

he Beechcraft Bonanza G36 is a single-engine piston aircraft derived from the Bonanza A36 model.

The maiden flight of the Bonanza G36 took place in December 1945 and the aircraft entered service in 1947. Although the design is now more than 65 years old, the Bonanza somehow is still regarded

as a modern machine. The Beechcraft Bonanza holds a coveted spot in aviation history as the longest continually produced airplane of all time. More than 18,000 Bonanzas have been delivered to date, and the airplane regularly sells out its production.

With a cabin almost a third larger than its nearest competitor and advanced Garmin G1000ÂŽ avionics, the Bonanza G36 is a superior value for your money. The spacious and comfortable cabin can accommodate a pilot and five passengers with more leg room for all the occupants. In an effort to improve the visibility of both passengers and a pilot, the cabin of G36 is equipped with a large one-piece wraparound windshield and six very large side passenger windows.

The length and height of the cabin are 12.7 feet and 4.2 feet respectively. The width is 3.6 feet The cabin also comprises 3.6 x 2.62 feet double doors for the entry of passengers, a 3.05 x 2.98 feet single-piece forward door for passenger exit and two centre windows for multiple emergency exit. The Bonanza G36 is fitted with a retractable and rugged landing gear for aero-dynamic efficiency and high-operational airspeeds.

Inside there are comfortable leather-finished seats with adjustable lumbar support, LED ambiance lighting, and a stowable executive table. The new automatic climate control system maintains a comfortable environment with little need for attention from the pilot. Cool air is delivered to passengers via the newly designed overhead console, and a dual-zone heat feature allows passengers to control the cabin heat setting independently. And, with a comfortable 101 cubic feet of total space, the cabinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contoured sidewalls provide maximum cabin width. Powered by a 300 hp Continental IO-550-B engine with a Hartzell three-blade propeller, it has a maximum cruise speed of 176 knots, a maximum range of more than 860 nm, and a 18,500foot service ceiling.

Living Legend, the Beechcraft Bonanza deserves this title.

The story of the Hawker 400XPR is one of performance, efficiency, capability and value. The new Williams International Fj44-4A-32 engines bring a new level of power that, when combined with Genuine HawkerTM Winglets allows the Hawker 400XPR to climb directly to 45,000 feet in just 19 minutes. That’s 50 minutes faster than the closest competitor. With a range of 4000 km you can fly from New Delhi to Tashkent, Chennai to Bahrain, Mumbai to Bangkok.

The 400XPR engines fly higher, faster and more efficiently. They also reduce operating costs for the Hawker by providing a much longer time between overhauls.

The combination of advanced internal aerodynamics and FADEC fuel management produces extremely efficient combustion that deliver a 16% reduction in specific fuel consumption (SFC) on short range missions and over a 20% SFC reduction on long range trips. This same combustion efficiency greatly reduces the aircraft’s Carbon Emissions making the Hawker 400XPR one of the most environmentally responsible neighbours on any airport.

The new Global 8000 ultra-long range jet due to enter into service in 2017, is slated to fly a longer

range than any other business jet, making city pairs such as Sydney-Los Angeles, Hong Kong-New York and Mumbai-New York non-stop, carrying eight passengers.

Announced alongside its smaller sister, the Global 7000, both these new jets are derivatives of Bombardierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current flagship family. The Global 8000 will be the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farthest-range business jet with an incredible 7,900 nautical miles (14,631-km) range and will be capable of high-speed cruise ability of Mach 0.90.

This Jet will feature the most up-to-date version of the Bombardier Vision flight deck.

At its maximum altitude of 51,000 feet, the cabin pressure is, for instance, equivalent to that at St. Moritz in Switzerland. A low cabin altitude favours rest and a fresher arrival.

Its superior three-zone cabin will be offering a 50 feet 7 inch passenger compartment and will be able to fly 19 passengers in ultimate comfort. Twin GE engines will power the aircraft.

Inside the cabin, bigger new windows will bathe it in natural light and the seating will provide considerably improved viewing angles and viewing range. The three-zone cabin will boast, among other things, a quiet aft stateroom that will feature a master bedroom. The private en-suite amenities can also be furnished with a true stand-up shower according to the manufacturer*.

A special dining and conference grouping area will also be present where one can enjoy meals or use it for conferencing. It will indeed be luxury in the sky.

he history of Cessna Aviation began in June 1911, when Clyde Cessna, a farmer in Rago, Kansas, built a woodand-fabric airplane and became the first person to build

and fly an aircraft. The first of his new monoplane designs, the ‘Phantom’, flew on August 13, 1927. Following that, the company created a series of successful four and six-place monoplanes.

Based in Wichita, Kansas, the aviation capitol of the United States, Cessna Aircraft Company, a subsidiary of the US conglomerate Textron Inc. Cessna will now be under one business-Textron Aviation, (the company forged by a merger of Cessna and Beechcraft).

The world’s largest manufacturer of private aircraft, Cessna began its operations, building small propeller-driven aircraft for the private pilot market, eventually expanding into the manufacture of corporate jets. The company has since become the leading private jet manufacturer in the industry. Many pilots have earned their wings on the recreational Cessna 152 or 172, the mainstay of private flying schools throughout the world. Cessna has delivered more than 190,000 aircrafts, including 24,000

The company expanded its product range with the introduction of the Citation Mustang VLJ (in service since 2007) following with two new products, the M2 and the Citation Latitude in 2011 and the Citation Longitude in 2012.

Cessna has a philosophy of ‘adding 10 per cent’, offering 10 per cent extra size, 10 per cent extra speed, to its customers moving up through its product range.

he Citation CJ2+ introduces the C series with class. It is perfect for private owners or as optimal addition to any corporate fleet.

The CJ2+ is powered by two Williams FJ44-3A-24

turbofan engines, and can travel 1,613 nautical miles (2,987-km) at a cruise speed of 774-kmph i.e. fly between New Delhi and Bangkok or Leipzig to Marrakech nonstop. It can climb straight to its ceiling of 45,000 feet in just 28 minutes.

Its windshields are designed to meet bird resistance requirements and are equipped with anti-ice protection.

Like all of the Citation CJ series, the aircraft is certified for single pilot operation and is equipped with the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics suite. This advanced technology has a simple goal—give pilots the timely, specific information they need to get passengers to their destinations safely and on time.

With the addition of Full-Authority Digital Engine Controls (FADEC) in every CJ, engine control is simplified, reducing pilot work-load during the busiest phases of flight. It also ensures proper power output, engine synchronisation, and maximum fuel efficiency.

CJ2+ cabin space is three feet longer than its sibling, the CJ1+ and provides an extra passenger seat. The spacious 13 feet and 7 inches long cabin interior gives plenty of leg room to the eight passengers. Indirect, long-lasting LED lighting and ample natural light from large windows create an ambient bright cabin, adjustable to passenger satisfaction. Digitally controlled pressurisation and advanced sound proofing ensures passengers comfort and the cabin quiet. In its most popular configuration, the CJ2+ provides seating for seven—six seats that track fore, aft, and laterally, four of which recline up to 45 degrees—and the option of a sidefacing seat opposite a forward slim-line refreshment centre.

his single-pilot light weight jet is so intuitive that it has both pilots and passengers alike falling in love. The CJ3 is categorised as a

light business jet and is in its ninth year of service, recently rolling out its 400th production. Throughout its near decade of service, analysts have praised the single-pilot CJ3 for its fuel efficiency, low operating costs, and large payload capabilities, as per the manufacturer.

Flying non-stop from Bengaluru to Doha is a breeze, as this jet has a maximum cruise speed of 770kmph with a range of 1,875 nautical miles (3,472km).

There is a new wing design that maintains an uninterrupted flow of air across a greater portion of its surface, producing more lift with less drag, taking just 27 minutes to reach its service ceiling of 45,000 feet.

The CJ3 aircraft is powered by two Williams FJ44-3A engines, the engine air intakes are fitted with engine bleed air anti-icing system.

The most pilot-focussed flight deck in the air today is in the cockpit of the Citation CJ3. It is further enhanced by the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics suite. The cockpit features an integrated flight director/autopilot and EFIS system that puts many of the latest advances in jet avionics at the pilotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s command. CJ3 became the first aircraft to have a file server as part of the standard avionics and the first to use electronic charts.

The cabin has six club seats in a centre-aisle configuration. The CJ3 cabin is 23 inches longer than that of the CJ2, providing extra leg room for the passengers. Within reach of each passenger are seat-side power outlets, an optional Aircell Iridium satellite telephone and DVD entertainment system.

Adjustable in-cabin LED lighting supplements the natural light provided by 14 triple-paned windows.

There are three baggage holds in the nose, tailcone and in the cabin. The baggage compartment in the cabin is accessible in flight. Hailed as the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;best of the bestâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the light business jet category, it is quite a head-turner on the tarmac.

ake a flight from New Delhi to Frankfurt with a short stop in between if you so desire. Yet, the 2000S ensures that you are not stressed out worrying about its refuelling during this commute. The Falcon 2000S

is an ideal upgrade from the super mid-size cabin to the large-cabin jet. It can land with a nearly full fuel tank, which allows it to hop from city-to-city, picking up passengers en route and leaping across a continent. With a range of 6,205km, the Falcon 2000S offers spacious comfort and connectivity to 6 passengers on typical non-stop six-hour flights, which means that the Falcon 2000S can fly from Mumbai to Hong Kong without stopping or from New Delhi to Paris with only one stop. With its certified maximum operating altitude of 47,000 feet, it flies above congested air traffic and the fluctuating weather conditions. The maximum cruising speed of this super mid-size jet is Mach 0.84. Its innovative low-drag wing that includes leading-edge slats, double-slotted Fowler flaps, and high-Mach blended winglets, makes it ideal for short field capabilities and the jet can take-off and land at smaller airports.

A new generation twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW308C engines produce fewer emissions, as the aircraft features a new a Talon II combustor that cuts nitrous oxide emissions by 20 per cent, making it the greenest of the Dassault fleet.

A redesigned, streamlined cockpit and the next-generation EASy II digital avionics, which are built on the Honeywell Primus Epic system, are the other stand-out features of this business jet, and offers easy manoeuvring of the aircraft even in difficult situations, thus making it safer and more efficient.

The cabin interiors designed by BMW Group DesignWorksUSA, provides seating for 10 passengers. Dassault and BMW came up with three initial interior designs—Alpine, Sedona and Havana. Alpine contrasts white with dark stone tones, Sedona is a collection of ‘earthy beige’ colours and Havana uses warm browns. The cabin is replete with quality supple leathers for its seat, polished veneers and soft carpeting.

This airborne office is well-connected and together with its FalconCabin HD+ entertainment system, this jet efficiently optimises space and provides passengers the best of comfort high in the sky.

ly from Mumbai to Belfast, Mumbai to London, Shanghai to Moscow or Hong Kong to Sydney non-stop. Or, fly to the most demanding Trans-Pacific routes with only one stop. The Falcon 900LX makes the world seem just a grab away.

This tri engine, wide-body, long-range business jet is a popular choice for buyers looking for an ocean-hopping airplane with a big range—4,750 nautical miles (8,800km)—and all the latest safety features, with a certified ceiling of 51,000 feet. This Falcon climbs to 39,000 feet in just 20 minutes.

The tri-jet configuration of 900LX put the thrust closer to the centreline of the aircraft, which gives it the ability to lowering critical speeds and allows better short field performance. Thus the 900LX can be slower on approaches and remain safer than its twin-jet counterparts. This helps 900LX to access small airports at high altitudes also, and capable of such difficult high altitude landings even in hot weather.

At the heart of the Falcon 900LX are three fuel efficient Honeywell TFE731-60 which are derived from an engine family known to have logged more than 100 million hours of service, making the reliability quotient unquestionable. It is supposed to burn 35-40 per cent less fuel than other aircrafts in its class, due to its advanced light weight structures and blended winglets. With a maximum cruising speed of Mach 0.84, you can hop from Nanjing to Shanghai and then fly on, without refuelling to Mumbai. The award-winning EASy II flight deck improves situational awareness and reduces pilot workload.

The aircraft’s ability to take-off and land at smaller airports also gives it easy

access to challenging airports all over the world—Lhasa, Kunming, London City and St. Moritz, to name a few. It can land with nearly full fuel tanks and while flying and the aerodynamically clean wing with high-Mach blended winglets makes the 900LX so efficient that it consumes 50-60 per cent less fuel, thus leaving a smaller carbonfootprint. The cabin offers a quiet, comfortable and well-proportioned space. It stands

six feet two inches tall, with a cabin width of seven feet eight inches and a length of 33 feet 2 inches having a total cabin volume of 1,264 cubic feet. Its three lounge cabin gives you plenty of freedom to work unencumbered or just relax in your space. So, you can either enjoy a fine meal or work in your airborne office that is as well-connected and well-appointed as the one you’re used to in office. A space for you to lie down and the best connectivity options available onboard, makes the 900LX stand out from its competitors.

assault Aviation unveiled its biggest and most advanced Falcon jet— the Falcon 5X—at the NBAA recently. A new-generation business jet with a new flight control system, new aerodynamics and other advanced

technologies, being hailed as an industry breakthrough, offering the largest cabin cross section of any purpose-built business jet and fuel efficiency as much as 50 per cent better than competing aircraft. The Falcon 5X is expected to make its first flight in the first quarter of 2015 and to achieve certification before the end of 2016.

This jet has a cabin height of six feet six inches (1.98 m), an important consideration for passenger comfort on flights of 10 or 11 hours’ duration. The 16-passenger aircraft has a range of 5,200 nautical miles (9,630-km), connecting Los Angeles with London, Sao Paulo with Chicago, Johannesburg with Geneva or Paris with Beijing. Functionality and modern style blend in the cabin. The company conducted extensive research into new cabin technology and styling techniques that promises to enhance passengers’ sense of spaciousness and comfort. The Falcon 5X offers an unprecedented direct view of the sky overhead through its skylight ceiling window, and 28 large windows, improve the view with increased natural light, providing unbeatable luminosity.

In a wireless world, the 5X cabin will make you feel right at home. It includes options for viewing entertainment content and news on iPads, and streaming content from tablets to cabin monitors. The 5X will offer the latest generation of the popular FalconCabin HD+ cabin management system, including its Skybox media server with a vast iTunes video and music library. Its iPhone app even allows you to control lighting, volume level and entertainment options, right from the palm of your hand.

Dassault describes the Falcon 5X as an aircraft that will occupy a ‘sweet spot’ in terms of long-range global capability and operational flexibility, suitable for all sorts of short and long-range missions. It is equipped with significantly improved aerodynamics—notably an all-new wing—and a brand new Silvercrest engine from Snecma. The Silvercrest engine is 15 per cent more fuel efficient than other engines in its power class; Emissions are dramatically lower than current standards, and ‘the engine is remarkably quiet’.

Both aircraft and engines will have the industry’s most advanced real-time selfdiagnosis onboard maintenance system. These computerised monitoring systems report service issues immediately to ground-based service hubs, so maintenance teams can begin to respond while the aircraft is still in the air.

This Falcon is to soar above the rest.

flows along the coast of Florida. Based in Savannah, Georgia, United States of America, it has produced more than 2,000 aircrafts since it began

operation in the 1950s.

A leader in innovation, the company is the first to design and develop a means of reducing the sonic boom caused by an aircraft ‘breaking’ the sound barrier—the Quiet Spike.

In 2009, the company made business aviation history when it conducted two powered rollouts just one week apart. The Gulfstream G650 was followed by the G280 a week later.

To meet the diverse needs of today’s corporates, the company offers a comprehensive fleet of aircraft, comprising the wide-cabin, high-speed Gulfstream

G280

G150; the new large-cabin, mid-range Gulfstream G280; the large-cabin, long-range Gulfstream G450; the large-cabin, ultra-long-range Gulfstream G550, and the ultralarge-cabin, ultra-long range, G650.

Gulfstream claims to have the first all-glass cockpit in business aviation, being the first manufacturer to offer an Enhanced Vision System as a standard item on an aircraft, having designed the first cockpit with an integrated avionics suite featuring 14 inch (36 cm) liquid crystal displays in landscape format. The Gulfstream Enhanced Vision SystemTM has become the industry standard for all vision-enhancing systems and represents a major advance in aviation safety. Their latest high-tech feature is the Gulfstream designed and controlled cabin management system. The Gulfstream Cabin Management System works in conjunction with the Gulfstream Cabin Control app to provide seamless digital control of the aircraft cabin’s systems. Using an off-

the-shelf smart device such as an iPod touch® or iPhone®, passengers can adjust the lighting, temperature, audio/video, flight information (Cabin View) and attendant call for their specific seat on the jet.

Gulfstream was the first to introduce PlaneBook, a tablet computer preloaded with a complete reference library that includes the Airplane Flight Manual, Operating Manual, Pilot Checklist and the Quick Reference Handbook for that airplane model.

This paperless solution eliminates the need for pilots to carry aboard heavy and bulky manuals containing all of the critical flight information they need. Gulfstream has made all this information available in a handy, user-friendly computer tablet. The paperless cockpit solution reduces pilot workload and improves pilot efficiency—all at the touch of a button according to company sources.

ly non-stop from New Delhi to London in 9.2 hours! That’s the time frame a Gulfstream G450, with eight passengers on board and cruising at a speed of Mach 0.80 takes. The jet’s maximum range is 4,350 nautical miles (8,056-

km) enabling a non-stop flight from Beijing to New Delhi. The G450 was also the world’s first business jet to be powered by a bio-fuel.

A direct descendent of the Gulfstream IV or GIV-series aircraft, considered one of the best-selling (nearly 500 aircrafts were sold before it ceased to exist in 2002) business jets, G450 is a complete upgrade of that outstanding jet.

Its twin Rolls-Royce Tay Mk 611-8C engines provides excellent take-off performance, especially at high elevation airports. Its cockpit features an integrated and advanced avionics suite.

Typical outfitting for 12-16 passengers, the G450 with its full-sized forward or aft galley and a long cabin with a stand-up height of six feet and two inches and length of forty feet and four inches, is aimed at maximising comfort. Fitted with large cabin windows, the cabin can be configured to accommodate up to 16 passengers in up to three living areas.

Whatever configuration you choose, you are bound to appreciate the intrinsic benefits of Gulfstream engineering—a cabin filled with 100 per cent fresh air, pressurised to an altitude of 6,000 feet; at FL450 abundant sunlight streaming through its signature oval windows, and advanced sound-proofing that creates an ideal space for easy and audible conversation.

A host of entertainment options, availability of satellite communication, greater fuel efficiency and lower operating costs as compared to the previous GIV family of aircraft, makes G450 a preferred choice for those people on the go.

ahindra Aerospace is the aircraft and aerostructures manufacturing arm of the US$16.7 Bn Mahindra Group. Formed in 2008, the company has a unique partnership with the Bangalore-based National

Aerospace Laboratories to develop the CNM5 5-seat utility aircraft with shared design responsibilities. In 2010 Mahindra Aerospace completed the acquisition of two Australian aviation companies, Aerostaff Australia and GippsAero, to further its aerospace growth strategy.

With the CNM5 still in development, the utility aircraft portfolio of Mahindra Aerospace currently consists of the GA8 Airvan, a 8-place single-engined workhorse certified in Australia, Europe, the USA and several other countries.

More than 200 GA8 Airvan have been produced by GippsAero since certification in 2000, and the fleet operate in a variety of roles in over 35 countries in almost all parts of the world. New product developments are a key part of the growth strategy; thus GippsAero built the first CNM5 and achieved its first flight in 2011.

Eight months later the company achieved the first flight of the 10-seat GA10 utility turboprop, developed completely in-house and scheduled to enter the market later this year. Mahindra Aerospace is also evaluating the launch of the GA18, a twinturboprop utility aircraft derived from an existing certified platform.

In aerostructures the Aerostaff acquisition was followed by a decision to develop comprehensive airframe manufacturing facilities in India to be a manufacturing service provider to the globe. The resulting greenfield facility was inaugurated in 2013 - a 250,000 Sq ft aerostructures manufacturing facility with sheet metal, surface treatment and assembly capabilities, located near Bengaluru.

BUSINESS AIRCRAFT

ounded in 1939, Pilatus Aircraft Limited, the Company’s history as a manufacturer of new aircraft types began with the SB-2 Pelikan, built in 1940 and designed for use in mountain regions such as the Swiss Alps, rolling out its first aircraft in 1945. From that time until quite recently, the company was best known for its remarkable training aircraft, the P-2, P-3, PC-7 and PC-9. The P-2 and P-3, both of which were flown by the Swiss Air Force, brought Pilatus its first enduring

success. The P-3 was also used by Swissair, as it was known back then. The real breakthrough came in 1959 with the Pilatus Porter PC-6. An exceptionally rugged aircraft, the PC-6 is distinguished by its versatility and excellent STOL (Short Take-Off and Landings) credentials.

Pilatus is the only Swiss company to develop, produce and sell aircraft to customers around the world—from the legendary Pilatus Porter PC-6 to the best-selling PC-12, a single-engine turboprop, and the PC-21, the training system of the future. Pilatus is currently developing the PC-24—the world’s first ever business jet for use on short unmade runways.

Clockwork precision is a hallmark of the Pilatus factory, as it takes 70,251 rivets and 5,000 man-hours to fabricate a Pilatus PC-12 single-engine turboprop, and when each PC-12 rolls into the final assembly process, the precise time and date when the airplane will be finished is noted on a label attached to the fuselage. If the label, for example, for PC-12 serial number 1418, says May 22 at 1500, then that is precisely when that aircraft will be done.

Tucked into a small corner of a former military airfield in Stans, where 1,500 employees have already built about 1,200 PC-12s along with other model upgrades have been in production in various configurations for more than 50 years. Pilatus military trainers are flown by more than 30 air forces around the world.

The PC-12 NG has a spacious and comfortable 330 cubic feet pressurised cabin. The cabin is equipped with nine 360° tilt passenger seats, large windows, and a 0.61m×1.35m passenger door. Like the PC-12, three interior options are available–sixplace executive, nine-passenger airliner and fourpassenger/freight configurations.

With a cabin volume of 9.34 cubic metre and floor width of 1.30 metre, it has a headroom of 1.47 metre. The length and width of the cabin are 5.16m and 1.52m respectively.

The PC-12 NG has found popularity in a number of roles—executive transport, cargo, air ambulance, airline, and government special mission applications. With the ability to integrate this airplane into both your business and personal life, some people have come to call it the ultimate aerial SUV. Pilatus PC12 NG is equally at home flying from grass strips or operating from big city airports.

Malibu. Piper today has been shaped to a large extent by these two memorable programmes, says the company.

Piper Aircraft has been making aeroplanes since 1937. During its 75-year history it has produced 51 different types, and built almost 128,000 aeroplanes, including some of the greatest light aircraft ever made. These include the immortal J3 (19,888), the classic Super Cub (10,222) and the ubiquitous PA-28. In its various incarnations of Cherokee, Archer, Arrow, Dakota and Warrior, an astonishing 35,434 PA-28s have been built—and the type is still in production today.

While it has a proud legacy, Piper is as much about the future as the past and several different models (most of which are sold even before they’re completed) continue to roll off the busy production line every week. The current line-up includes the PA-28 Archer LX, Archer TX and Arrow; the PA-34 Seneca, PA-44 Seminole and the three different PA-46s in the ‘M-class’—the Meridian, Mirage and Matrix.

he Archer LX is a solid entry-level plane that comes fully IFR equipped, right from the Piper factory, making it well suited for training. At the same time, with its 128 ktas cruise speed, you’ll find the Archer LX fast

enough to fly most modest cross country trips you desire, making it an aircraft you can enjoy well beyond your first take-offs.

The cabin is quite spacious and well-lit, with a flat floor. The front seats offer a respectable amount of adjustment and inertia reel seatbelts. Open the right entry door and you’re confronted with more leather than a rock star’s closet.

Interiors have been progressively improved to the point that they truly are nearly automotive in nature. The soft, leather-covered seats in the Archer LX are incredibly comfortable. Front and rear cabin occupants have a tall backrest, and the pilot and co-pilot seats also have arch support, manually inflatable with a small hand pump under each seat.

There is ample elbowroom in the front and back and sufficient legroom in the back, as long as the pilot or copilot doesn’t have unusually long legs.

This aircraft is still in production some 52 years after its first flew, more than 37,000 had been sold. These simple facts say more about how successful the series has been.

By any measure, the Archer LX is a plush airplane, with equipment and features commensurate with its price tag.

he Piper Matrix is a depressurised version of the Mirage, with the same engine and similar performance specifications. The depressurisation

allows for lower operating costs while still maintaining a very comfortable

cabin which typically seats from four to eight passengers.

As a 4-place aircraft, the cabin-class Matrix offers travellers luxurious space to stretch out. The cabin includes a very nice air stair door entrance, a central aisle in the cabin, and comfy, leather club-seating. Passengers will find access to

individual reading lights and air vents, a power supply for a laptop and a builtin work station which folds seamlessly into the side panel. If travellers require only three passenger seats, some aircraft may accommodate a refreshment centre in place of one of the forward seats. The aircraft also offers both internal and external luggage space with room for about 100 lbs. behind the rear seats, and 100

lbs. in the nose baggage compartment.

The airframe and the engine of the Piper Matrix are the same as that of the Mirage. The 350 hp dual turbocharged Lycoming TIO-540-AE2A engine gives the aircraft a full fuel range of 1,345 nautical miles at maximum operating altitude of 25,000 feet and a speed of 215 knots, or, perhaps more practically, at 12,000 feet, a cruise speed of 188 knots with a range of 831 nautical miles while carrying a payload of 800 pounds.

With the largest cabin in its class, not only is the Piper Matrix a more comfortable way to travel, it also offers no compromises concerning performance and capability. The Matrix will impress everyone, especially pilots and passengers that normally flies 4-place airplanes. This aircraft is the next levelâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a luxurious level.

s Piper Aircraft commemorated its 75th anniversary last year, the company had another event to celebrateâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the 500th delivery of its popular turboprop Piper Meridian.

The Piper Meridian began life as a high performance, turboprop-powered

version of the Piper Malibu Mirage. It is a powerful but comfortable aircraft for short range flights and typically seats six to eight passengers.

The Meridian is simple to fly, relatively inexpensive to maintain and for a turbine, gets good fuel economy. At 27,000 feet, you can see true airspeed of about 262 knots while burning 37 gallons per hour. Overall, the cabin offers 120 cubic feet of space and measures 3.9 feet high, 4.2 feet wide and 12.2 feet long including the cockpit and the 20 cubic feet of baggage stowage behind the rear passenger seats that holds 100 pounds. (You have to fold the seats forward to access it.) The Meridian does not have an external baggage hold. Aircraft entry is via a 3.8-foot-high, 2-foot-wide main cabin door aft of the left wing. There is no

SINGLE ENGINE TURBOPROP

room for a lavatory or galley, but the average Meridian flight is usually under an hour so you really don’t need them. It’s a single-engine turboprop so despite the propeller, it is truly jet-powered and that really means business.

Powered by a Pratt & Whitney PT6 engine, the Piper Meridian cruises at 260 knots ( 482-km/h) and tops out at a range of 1,000 nm (1,885-km) as well as slow 75 kt (86 mph) landing speeds, and that responsiveness is a very nice complement to the Meridian’s short 2500 feet runway capability. It can easily take-off and land at small airports many of which have runways that are too short for even the smallest jets. The Piper Meridian can take-off and land on grass and dirt landing strips, opening up thousands of additional runways to Meridian flight operations.

This aircraft, the Piper Malibu Meridian, is well made and strikes a perfect balance of aerodynamic excellence and low noise and vibration level. Enjoy the good flying the Meridian can bring to you as a pilot or a passenger.

Range - 30 Min Res (NM) - Tanks Full is the maximum VFR range of the aircraft with the maximum fuel on board and no passenger seats occupied. This is used for all piston fixedwing aircraft and helicopters.

Balanced Field Length (BFL) BFL is the distance obtained by determining the decision speed (V1) at which the take-off distance and the accelerate-stop distance are equal (fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft only).

This is based on four passengers and maximum fuel on board (turbine aircraft). For singleengine and all piston fixed-wing aircraft, this distance represents the take-off field length at Maximum Take-off Weight (MTOW). Please refer to Comparative Field Lengths - Jets and Turboprops at the end of this document for a more in- depth explanation. BFL is based on a Dry Level Runway, No Wind, NBAA IFR Reserves and 86 degrees F. Landing Runway Length The landing distance, as required by the regulations, is the distance needed to land and come to a complete stop from a point 50 feet above the threshold end of the runway. It includes the air distance required to travel from the 50 foot height to touchdown plus the stopping distance. (Maximum brakes, no thrust reversers) For FAR 91 operators (not for hire) there is no requirement for any additional safety margin. A different set of requirements exist for air carriers and commercial operators (FAR 121, FAR 91 subpart K and FAR 135). The required landing distance from the 50 foot height cannot exceed 60% of the actual runway length available. In all cases, the minimum airspeed allowed at the 50 foot height must be no less than 1.3 times the aircraft stall speed in the landing configuration. This speed is commonly called the aircraft’s VREF speed and will vary with landing weight.

Under FAR 121, FAR 91 Subpart K and 135 an optional runway (normally the planned divert airport runway) the aircraft can land on within 80% of the available runway length is required.

All landing distances are calculated assuming optimum landing conditions. No allowances are made for a variety of real world factors such as worn tires and brakes, non optimum runway conditions, one engine inoperative, etc. No allowances are made for thrust reversers.

A FAR 91 operator can legally land on a runway without requirement for any margin to be left over after stopping.

Conklin & de Decker shows the FAR 91, 121 and 135 Landing Field Lengths at sea level for all fixed wing turbine aircraft. Fixed wing piston aircraft show FAR 91 landing distance. The FAR 121 and 135 Landing Field Lengths are computed by multiplying the FAR 91 Landing Distance by 1.667.

Aircraft Landing configuration for all fixed wing turbine aircraft is four passengers and NBAA IFR Fuel Reserve for a 200 NM alternate on board.The landing distance is computed for fixed wing piston aircraft at maximum landing weight and NBAA IFR Fuel Reserves for a 100 NM alternate.

Rate of Climb (Ft/Min) The rate of climb, given in feet per minute, is for all engines operating, at MTOW in ISA conditions. One Engine Out rate of climb is for one engine inoperative rate of climb at MTOW, ISA. Climb rates assume landing gear and flaps are retracted, and any anti-ice systems are turned off.

Many significant variables affect the costs involved in owning and operating business aircraft. When data is collected from different sources, it is difficult to compare. For example, no two operators track costs in exactly the same way. Operator’s costs may represent different periods of time and some manufacturers may use different assumptions to build their estimates while others no longer publish theirs. The Aircraft Cost Evaluator addresses these inconsistencies by applying the same ground rules to each aircraft listed and tries to eliminate as many variables as possible. This provides a more comparative picture of the relative costs associated with operating similar aircraft types.

Our cost numbers are not optimized. Instead, it is our intention to give you costs that are conservative, representative and comparable under comparable conditions. No one should rely on a single report as a prediction for the costs they will eventually incur when owning or operating a particular aircraft type.

The Aircraft Cost Evaluator is not intended as a budgeting tool. We make no representation or warranty to the effect.

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

Cabin Dimensions Cabin Height, Width, and Length are based on a completed interior. On “cabin-class” aircraft, the length is measured from the cockpit divider to the aft pressure bulkhead (or aft cabin bulkhead if unpressurized). For small cabin aircraft, the distance is from the cockpit firewall to the aft bulkhead. Height and width are the maximum within that cabin space.

Cabin Volume is the passenger cabin (empty volume, cockpit divider/back of pilot seat to back-most point of rear seating) + front passenger area (if single pilot) = total cabin volume.

It is measured with headliner in place with no chairs or other furnishings.

Typical Crew/Pass Seating This is the typical crew and passenger seating commonly used on the aircraft. This is not the maximum certificated seats of the aircraft. These numbers may vary for different operations (Corporate, Commercial, EMS, etc.).

Weights Maximum Take-off Weight is specified during aircraft certification. It is the maximum weight of the aircraft at take off.

Basic Operating Weight is the empty weight, typically equipped, plus unusable fuel and liquids, flight crew @ 200 pounds each (see Typical Crew/Pass Seating) and their supplies.

The flight crew includes the pilot (s) along with the flight attendant and flight engineer if required.

Certified/IFR Certified The first is whether the aircraft is certified (or expected to be). New models in flight test are not certified. IFR Certified refers to whether the aircraft is certified for flight under IFR. Price Price - New (Typical) is the selling price of a typically equipped new aircraft. For current production aircraft this is the price of the current year’s model. For out of production aircraft, this refers to the selling price from the last year the model was produced. For aircraft not yet in production, it reflects the proposed price for an early delivery. This figure is in thousands of US Dollars. New aircraft prices do not reflect escalation factors for future delivery dates.

Price - Pre-owned Range is the low and high selling price of the aircraft. Fixed-wing aircraft are based on the latest available edition of The Aircraft Bluebook Price Digest and The Airliner Price Guide.

242

AIRCRAFT COST SUMMARY & PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS be commonly referred to as High Speed Cruise. Normal cruise speed is the recommended cruise speed established by the manufacturer. This speed may also be the same as Maximum Cruise Speed. Long Range Cruise is the manufacturer’s recommended cruise speed for maximum range.

Stall Speed (IAS) The stall speed in landing configuration, four passengers and NBAA IFR Fuel Reserves (turbine) or VSO (piston).

Ceiling Certified Ceiling is the maximum altitude a particular aircraft is certified to operate at.

(This does not mean the aircraft can reach this altitude at all weights) Service Ceiling (fixed-wing) is the highest altitude at which a 100 fpm rate of climb is possible at MTOW with all engines running. This is NOT the Certificated Ceiling that was established by a regulatory authority. Service OEI is the service ceiling with one engine inoperative.

Service Ceiling (Helicopter) - The lesser of the highest altitude at which a 100 fpm rate of climb is possible at MTOW with all engines running OR the maximum certificated altitude for operation of this helicopter.

Service OEI (Helicopter) - The service ceiling with one engine inoperative.

Hover IGE (Helicopter) - HIGE is a condition where the downwash of air from the main rotor is able to react with a hard surface (the ground), and give a useful reaction to the helicopter in the form of more lift force available with less engine power required. It is a condition of improved performance encountered when operating near (within 1/2 rotor diameter) the ground. HIGE is the ability to hover motionless within one blade diameter of the ground.

What is occurring is the air is impacting with the ground and causing a small build up of air pressure in the region below the rotor disk. The helicopter is then “floating” on a cushion of air. This means that less power is required to maintain a constant altitude hover. IGE conditions are usually found within heights about 0.5 to 1.0 times the diameter of the main rotor. So if a helicopter has a rotor diameter of 48ft, the IGE region will be about 24 - 48ft above the ground. The height will vary depending on the type of helicopter, the slope and nature of the ground, and any prevailing winds.

Hover OGE (Helicopter) - HOGE occurs when the helicopter rotor downwash is not affected by the proximity of the landing surface. In other words, OGE usually occurs when the helicopter is more than one-half of the rotor diameter above the ground.

HOGE performance is particularly important when the helicopter is being utilized for utility or EMS operations. The helicopter being used for an EMS mission needs the ability to hover land on a rooftop helipad or in a confined area, many times at a high altitude. A helicopter performing a utility mission with a sling load needs the capability to hover with that load while lowering it.

Comparative Field Lengths Jets and Turboprops

The Balanced Field Length (BFL) performance of aircraft can be very confusing. Most often the confusion arises from the basic differences in operating regulations governing the types of aircraft. There are two regulations that govern runway distance requirements for jets and turboprops. These regulations are FAR 23 (aircraft with a gross weight of 12,500 pounds and under) and FAR 25 (Air Transport Category aircraft with a gross weight over 12,500 pounds). These two regulations vary significantly. The more stringent rules of FAR 25 provide the passenger with greater safety margins than those used for FAR 23 private aircraft.

For example, FAR 23 makes no allowance for loss of power or an engine or propeller failure.

Additionally, the published distance requires no allowance for either being able to stop on the remaining runway or to continue the take-off on one engine after an engine failure.

By contrast, FAR 25 regulations intended for Air Transport Aircraft such as business jets and large turboprops assures their passengers and crew that in the unlikely event of a loss of engine power during take-off the aircraft can either:Stop within the remaining runway length Take-off and climb on the remaining good engine.

This distance is known as Balanced Field Length. BFL is the distance obtained by determining the decision speed (V1) at which the take-off distance and the accelerate-stop distance are equal. Decision speed is the point where the pilot decides to either continue with the takeoff or slam on the brakes and stop the aircraft.To illustrate how these regulations work let’s look at a typical situation involving a small turboprop (FAR 23) and a small business jet (FAR 25), both seating six passengers. We’ll assume maximum gross weight, sea level, International Standard Atmospheric (ISA) conditions and a dry, level, hard surface runway.

The small turboprop can legally take-off from a 2,600-ft runway operating under FAR 23. Although it has no requirement to consider an engine failure let’s assume an engine fails at its published rotation speed (Vr) of 94 knots. Rotation speed is the point when the aircraft starts to lift off the ground. Its distance to accelerate to Vr and stop is 3,400 ft, 800 ft longer than the take-off distance. If the take-off is continued after engine failure at Vr, then the runway required jumps to 4,750 ft, 82% longer than the take-off distance of 2,600 ft. Although 4,750 ft is the BFL for the turboprop it is not a legal requirement under Part 23 for runway length decision. The small business jet has a BFL of 4,500 ft runway in the same conditions, 250 ft shorter than the turboprop under the same contingencies and with the same margin of safety.

Although the small business jet could take-off or accelerate/stop like the turboprop from a shorter runway the pilot is not permitted to base the runway length decision on anything other than the BFL data while operating under FAR 25.
