As technology capabilities continue to evolve, aircraft need to keep up with this modernization. Aircraft also need to adapt to new regulations and airspace infrastructure updates. In addition, old technology is slowly being replaced and, in some cases, is no longer supported. Examples of Avionics Upgrade Requirements: ` New Airspace Requirement Compliance: FANS 1/A, CPDLC,
ATN-B1/CPDLC, WAAS/LPV, TCAS II 7.1, ADS-B Out,…etc
` Enhanced Situational Awareness: Synthetic Vision System (SVS), Enhanced Vision System (EVS), Graphical Charts ` Obsolescence: CRT Display to LCD Display, Navigation system IRU, Avionics processing capabilities, FMS,…etc

Citation CJ M2 with Tamarack Active Winglets
Cessna Citation X with Winglet Technology Elliptical Winglets
Falcon 2000S with baseline Aviation Partners Blended Winglets
Winglets are advanced aerodynamics wing extensions, designed to significantly reduce wingtip vortex, resulting in less drag, lower fuel burn and superior climb and cruise characteristics. Aviation Partners blended winglets are a good example of innovation in business aviation that benefits to whole aviation industry. Introduced first, for the Gulfstream II in 1992, this patented technology was ultimately installed on over 70 percent of the GII fleet and is now flying on over 8,000 business and commercial aircraft. Winglet Technology and Cessna Aircraft Company collaborated to develop the world’s fastest winglet for the world’s fastest civilian aircraft with a top speed of 0.92 Mach. Winglet Technology worked closely with Cessna Aircraft Company to develop a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) permitting the installation of the Elliptical winglets on the Cessna Citation X business jet. Elliptical winglets become standard equipment on the Citation X+.
A Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) with Aviation Partners Split Scimitar Winglets
The active winglets from Tamarack combines three major elements to achieve new levels of aircraft performance, efficiency, and sustainability. A lightweight wing extension, a composite winglet and the autonomous ATLAS® load alleviation system.

T U R B I N E P OW E R E D HELICOPTER C AT E G O R I E S LIGHT MTOW < 7,000 lbs With their large mission versatility and efficiency, Light helicopters are the most popular helicopters in the civil market. The Light category is divided into two sub-categories: single and twin-engine. The primary differences between single and twin-engine helicopters lie in their power and speed capabilities. Twin-engine helicopters provide greater overall power and speed when compared to their single-engine counterparts. The engine redundancy is especially valuable when flying over water, densely populated areas, or inhospitable terrains.
INTERMEDIATE 7,000 lbs < MTOW < 10,000 lbs The Intermediate category combines light helicopter versatility with increased cabin size and range capabilities making them perfect for a large number of missions ranging from Emergency Medical Services to Search & Rescue and offshore operations.
MEDIUM & SUPER-MEDIUM 10,000 lbs < MTOW < 20,000 lbs Developed primarily to support the offshore oil and gas industry, the Medium and Super-Medium category helicopters have proven very popular in corporate transportation applications as their large and unobstructed cabins can embody the hallmarks of elegance, style, and sophistication. These helicopters can often be equipped with state-of-the-art telecommunications and entertainment systems, dedicated workspaces, and refreshment and stowage areas.
HEAVY 20,000 lbs < MTOW Designed primarily for the long-range offshore oil and gas market, Heavy helicopters are very popular in the VVIP market for government officials and head-of-state transportation.

THE MODIFIED A I R L I N E RS ( B I Z L I N E RS ) E C O SYST E M
MODIFIED AIRLINERS Bizliners are commercial airliners modified for a lower passenger count usage in business aviation missions. They are mainly used for government transportation including head-of-state (~45% of the market), private including corporate operations (~40%), and charter operations (~15%). Since most regional and narrow-body ranges are fuel limited at lower payload, OEMs or completion centers will certify Auxiliary Fuel Tanks (ACT) installation on these jets to increase their range capability. Boeing in collaboration with General Electric launched Boeing Business Jets in 1996 followed by Airbus who entered the market in 1997 with the launch of Airbus Corporate Jets business unit. Bizliners have a large number of benefits in comparison with purpose-built business jets, notably their large cabin and baggage capability but also some drawbacks in terms of performance, mission capabilities, and versatility.

COMPLETION CENTERS
Green BBJ enroute to outfitting
In contrast to purpose-built business jets that are delivered ready for operations straight from aircraft OEMs. Bizliners are delivered unpainted, with only a green primer application, hence known as ‘green’. (generally) not painted with only a green primer application. The interior is literally empty and requires design and outfitting at a completion center. Completion centers often offer customized interior design, engineering, and certification of the interior outfitting and additional modifications such as airstairs, connectivity, inflight entertainment systems, and even airborne protection systems for government and VVIP aircraft. Completion centers will also perform the interior installation and final certification. Completion centers also specialise in bizliners in-service maintenance and follow-on cabin retrofits.
INTERIOR DESIGN
A Boeing 787 at Greenpoint Technologies, a Safran Company, for interior completion
Bizliners offer the ultimate customization opportunity for having a jet crafted absolutely down to the last detail in accordance with customers’ needs. Interior designers will design the optimum cabin through a thorough understanding of client needs, cultural requirements, and expectations. Although most completion centers offer their internal design team, independent interior designers are often hired by customers or completion centers. These independent interior designers will not only bring their experience in aviation but also from other luxury markets such as yachts, luxury residences, and high-end hotel designs.
COMPLETION MANAGEMENT
London-based ALTEA offers bizliners completion management and VVIP interior design
Although the completion process may seem complex, customers can rely on completion managers who will work closely with the interior designer and completion center, to transition design intent into a cabin that is comfortable, functional, and reliable, and then oversee the entire outfitting process to ensure that client expectations, budget and quality standards are met.
