Guest Editor’s VIEWPOINT Jeffrey Lowe

Asia-Pacific Market Outlook: Glass Half Empty or Half Full?

C

hina, for many years, has been the engine of growth for the Asia-Pacific business jet fleet, particularly if you consider Greater China. But 2018 was a challenging year for the PRC with, among other things, a trade war with the US kicking off in March/April and overall poor macro-economic results.

Consequently, all of us involved in this Business Aviation trade ended up feeling — as the year went on — that the inflow of business jets into China we’d seen in the past, which we had all come to expect and rely on, had now become an outflow.

Well, the data never lies, and we were all correct. As we suspected, the business jet fleet in Mainland China in 2018 contracted 2%, which — when you think about it — is an astonishing result. Mainland China led all the Asia-Pacific countries in 2017, adding a net 31 airc raft to make it the highest growth in the region (10%). 2018 saw Mainland China lose a net six aircraft – so there was a swing of 37 aircraft (10%) 2017 to 2018.

All I can add at this point is thank goodness for Southeast Asia, which replaced Mainland China as the engine of growth for 2018.

And that leads to a completely different predicament for OEMs. Gulfstream has always been heavily reliant on the Grea ter China market, so as Greater China goes so does Gulfstream.

Not too surprisingly, therefore, Gulfstream’s net growth for 2018 was just a single aircraft (less than 1%).

Bombardier, on the other hand, which has always had a better fleet distribution throughout the Asia-Pacific region, was the big winner, adding a net 19 aircraft (6%) for the best growth of 2018.

What About 2019 so Far?

Worries about the US/China trade dispute persist, with Q2 2019 growth in China subsequently the weakest in 27 years. Exports from China fell in August to their lowest level for 2019 which had a knock-on effect of severely impacting manufacturing in Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.

As they say, when China sneezes, the rest of the Asia-Pacific region catches a cold. And just to pile on the misery, the Yuan has lost over 7% of its value since April. And this all comes when globally the market for business jets has cooled too, particularly in the US. 4 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

The business jet market has normalized in the US after a buying spree at Year-End 2018 due to tax savings. In addition, year-on-year US flight operations have increased just 0.3% to date. There’s even talk of a recession, while inventory levels of pre-owned aircraft are increasing q uarter to quarter (+6.8% in Q2).

Demand and need are down, while the risk and supply are up.

That’s not a great mix for our industry. Consequently in 2019 so far, we’re seeing fewer transactions. The global market is down 10.7%.

In the Asia-Pacific region specifically, business confidence is down, and pessimism is on the rise (+6-7%) since the beginning of the year. This translates into a higher percentage of sellers and a higher percentage of “I’m not sure” when it comes to purchase intentions.

Consequently, the outflow is higher than the inflow presently but worse than 2018, and the business jet fleet in Asia-Pacific will ultimately shrink in 2019, driven primarily by net deductions to the Mainland China and Hong Kong fleets.

Glass Half Empty or Half Full?

Procurement of new jets may have slowed, but the region is now just experiencing an adjustment – some would say a welcome market correction which reflects the overheated growth of a few years back. The market’s maturing, evolving and adapting which has seen some players fade away, but the key players remain strong.

Moreover, several evolving and innovative business models are popping up. Disruption is also beginning to impact the industry, and technology will play a key role in Asian markets as they mature. So, what we are experiencing now is all healthy, and Asia is entrepreneurial and adaptive by nature, boding well for Business Aviation’s future.

MARKET INDICATORS

Business Aviation Market Overview With NBAA-BACE behind us, the focus becomes getting as much business done as possible before the end of the year. Rollie Vincent assesses the state of the market entering the final months of 2019… he lights have been turned off, the carpets and underlay have been rolled up, and the elaborate exhibition booths and associated infrastructure have been disassembled. Expense reports and newlyreceived business cards duly filed, travellers to last month’s 2019 NBAA-BACE extravaganza in Las Vegas, Nevada have returned to their real jobs once again, fully focused on closing out the remaining business that can still be done in the time remaining before the clock strikes midnight on December 31.

Talk of ‘bifurcated markets’ - all the rage in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis when sales of Large Cabin business jets continued to climb while Mid-size and smaller jet transactions turned markedly down – filled the halls of the Las Vegas Convention Center and Henderson Executive Airport static. This time, however, the market bifurcation was the diverging fortunes of those engaged in new aircraft deals versus those in the pre-owned segment.

T

New Aircraft Market

Aircraft manufacturers and their key suppliers are the proverbial 800lb gorillas at trade shows like NBAA-BACE, EBACE, Paris Air Show, and Farnborough in particular. With exhibit booths, static display chalets, aircraft demonstrators and dozens – if not 18 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

hundreds of on-site staff, they are the envy of almost anyone in the hall with even the vaguest of understandings of a “marketing events” budget.

In 2019, OEMs across most business aircraft segments have been enjoying solid sales success, with Year-over-Year (YoY) increases in net new aircraft orders driving up firm order backlogs.

Through H1 2019, we estimate that US$-denominated backlogs at the five largest business aircraft OEMs [Bombardier, Dassault, Embraer, Gulfstream and Textron] were up about 7% YoY, and by perhaps 10% YoY through August, based on strong Falcon orders in July and August. (Clearly, not everyone in France was sipping fine rosé by the seashore this summer).

Product launches – always a highlight at trade show gatherings – were a key feature of NBAA-BACE 2019, with the launch of highly anticipated aircraft that bracket the market. Two of the most notable are the new top-of-the-line Gulfstream G700 and the re-engined Pilatus PC-12 with single power lever controls.

Both of these derivative aircraft build on the impressive track record of their bloodlines, with the dual advantages of lower investment costs and quicker ROI/speed to market for the manufacturers, their investors, and other key stakeholders. www.AVBUYER.com

and request one-off flight permits in the NAS post-2019. One can only surmise that the expression “How’s that working for you?” will take on new meaning in the New Year.

The FAA and other regulators cannot be faulted for anything except maybe giving too much notice of the impending ADS-B Out changes. Deadlines, especially if they are perceived to be real and looming from the get-go, have a lovely way of focusing the mind and the pocketbook on what needs to get done.

Ongoing Turbulence

Pre-Owned Aircraft Market

While all that glittered in Las Vegas may have indeed looked golden for the OEMs, the pre-owned business aircraft market has certainly enjoyed better days. Retail pre-owned business jet sales and leases were down 19% in volume from January through September 1 this year compared to the same period last year, with the for-sale inventory on the increase once again, reaching 9.6% (or ~2,150 jets) as we went to press, according to JETNET. Inventory appears to have bottomed out about the same time that the industry gathered about a year ago for NBAABACE 2018 in Orlando, Florida, when just less than 9% of the in-service fleet was listed for sale.

ADS-B is Nearly Here…

With a hard deadline of December 31, 2019 looming for aircraft to be US-operationally compliant with the ADS-B Out mandate, thousands of aircraft owners and operators, and thousands of business aircraft will have less to celebrate as the New Year’s bell drops in New York’s Time Square.

Duncan Aviation, one of the world’s premier independent MRO providers, recently estimated that about 5,500 USregistered business jets and turboprops would not make the deadline, representing a remarkable 25% of the combined inservice fleet of almost 22,000 aircraft.

In-compliance charter operators and under-employed ferry pilots (a very rare species) are sure to be in strong demand in the months and even years to come as owners/operators grapple with the real-world headaches of trying to skirt the rules www.AVBUYER.com

Speaking of priorities, business aircraft customers and their Business Aviation product and service providers certainly have no shortage of turbulence to deal with today and in the year to come, from the seemingly never ending cauldrons of political power.

It has already been three years since “Brexit” and “Trump” became the topic of near-daily world news headlines, a time when the sentiment of business aircraft owners and operators fell to a low point that has not been matched since JETNET iQ surveys were launched in late 2010.

Business aircraft customer sentiment started to rebound steadily, beginning in late 2016, and had been on a general increase since that low point, peaking again about a year ago at NBAA-BACE 2018. With economic uncertainty and international trade tensions on the rise, however, the mood of business aircraft owners and operators around the world has deteriorated with concerns building of the possibility of recession in key national economies where Business Aviation is prominent.

In Summary

Business aircraft OEMs have been bolstered by a nice uptick of orders for their newest models, all of which were under the bright lights of big city Las Vegas. Less conspicuous are orders for so-called legacy models that made up the majority of the 50-or-so turbine-powered in-production models on display at NBAA-BACE 2019.

While the southern Nevada skies were bright all week, the wise are monitoring their radars and remaining diligent about the evolving state of the Business Aviation market.

According to WingX, there were 80,113 Business Aviation departures in Europe in September 2019 – up slightly on August 2019, but down 2% compared to September 2018.

Three quarters of the way through 2019, overall market activity is down by 2%...

There was some growth in flight activity during September in France, but that was offset by some big YoY drops in departures from Germany and Spain. YTD, activity has been flat in France, the top market, and has declined the most in Germany.

Small and Mid-Size Jet activity slipped 3% in September, with sizeable declines in Germany and Austria. Some growth was recorded in the UK for business jet activity, while in France the growth came from turboprop activity. Overall Large Jet activity was down 1% this month.

Flights within Europe were down YoY during September 2019 by 2%. In contrast, flights from Europe to North America increased by 9% YoY and are up 3% YTD. And departures from Europe to Asia-Pacific have been down 11% so far in 2019.

“September’s flight activity shows the continuation in steady erosion in Business Aviation demand compared to 2018,” Richard Koe, managing director of WingX says. “Across the fleet, the pattern is uneven, with Small and Mid-size Jet activity taking a battering, especially from the largest markets in Western and Central Europe.

“This drop-off appears to align with the manufacturing slump in the Eurozone. There are still some bright spots in the flight activity analysis, not least Farnborough’s continued stellar growth as its ownership passes to new hands.”

2019: Bumper Year in New Jet Deliveries?

After AvBuyer went to press with the Q2 2019 GAMA shipment analysis, new and significant numbers were issued by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association, as outlined by Mike Potts…

The new numbers published by GAMA relating to its Q2 2019 shipment report indicate we are headed for a bumper year in jet deliveries. If the trends continue, jet totals could reach 750 units or more for the first time since 2010.

That’s because GAMA released an amendment to its report, filling in missing shipment numbers from Dassault. With the addition of Dassault’s numbers it becomes clear that the jet market is growing faster this year than it has during any year in the past decade.

Dassault reported 17 deliveries for H1 2019, an increase on the 15 it shipped a year prior. The addition of those 17 units reveals that jet deliveries are up 18.5% over H1 2018, at 333 units versus 281.

The last time jet deliveries exceeded 333 in the first six months of a year was in 2010 when the mid-year total was 355 and the year-end total reached 763 (a number not achieved since). The best mid-year total this decade was in 2014 when 318 new jets were shipped. That year ended with a total of 722 jet deliveries, the strongest in this decade. That will be surpassed in 2019 if the pace continues…

Could Uncertainty Extend BizAv’s Lost Decade?

Sentiment for the business jet market has taken a step back from June “as perceived economic risks impact a market that benefits from certainty and stability,” Citi Research reported, based on its quarterly business jet broker panel…

From a broker’s perspective, Citi said, “It was always going to be tough to repeat a strong 2018…but summer 2019 was slower than normal.” The financial firm also warned that pre-owned business jet supply and demand imbalances could re-emerge.

Last year, Citi brokers were having trouble finding aircraft for buyers, but now “the pendulum appears to be swinging the other way, with the used market again offering attractive value versus new”.

This could result in OEMs needing to cut prices to make sales, it noted.

“So it’s still tough to get confident about the business jet market through the second half [of 2019] even as we’re approaching the end of what we’ve called the ‘lost decade’,” Citi said. “Economic/trade concerns could tease it out a bit longer.”

Pilot Shortage Could Affect Bizjet Sales As many as 2,500 new Business Aviation pilots will be needed in the UK, and 98,000 globally over the next 19 years, business aircraft broker Colibri Aircraft projects...

Pilots shortages are creating operational challenges for owners and even risking the sale of some business jet types, Colibri elaborates. Therefore, the company is advising against clients hiring only one full-time pilot and relying on contract crew to fill the right seat.

Business Aviation pilots are exiting the sector in growing numbers to fly for airlines. They’re attracted by more predictable schedules, Colibri adds, noting that the commercial aviation sector’s focus on recruiting Business Aviation pilots will only intensify as the world’s passenger and freight aircraft fleet is expected to more than double between now and 2038.

“The Business Aviation sector is struggling to compete with the airlines in recruiting pilots,” said Oliver Stone, managing director, Colibri Aircraft. “This means commercial airlines are not only recruiting existing Business Aviation

pilots, but are also getting the pick of newly qualified pilots.

“This issue is increasingly impacting the sale of some private jets, and we expect it to continue.”

Decoding What’s Next From Cagey BizJet OEMs… What would be the logical next move for the major manufacturers in the business jet manufacturing market?

Writing WITHOUT the benefit of hindsight of October’s NBAA-BACE, here’s what Brian Foley projected…

Gulfstream Aerospace

It’s logical to think that General Dynamics’ Gulfstream division would be motivated to build a successor to its aging G650ER flagship for two compelling reasons.

From an aircraft capability standpoint, Gulfstream hasn’t historically allowed any competitor’s product to have a meaningful edge for long. But Bombardier’s brand new Global 7500 does exactly that, outshining the maximum distance the G650ER flies.

More importantly, because it’s a generation older, manufacturing techniques for the G650ER are more inefficient and antiquated compared to Gulfstream’s latest G500 and G600 models, which take fewer labor hours and parts to build. By ditching the old G650ER and replacing it with a longerranged derivative of the new G600, the company would improve margins while optimizing commonality with G500/G600 parts and tooling.

Embraer

Any near-term new product announcement would be a surprise since Embraer just announced an improvement last year with its Praetor line, a branding and performance update to its previous Legacy 450 and 500.

This, coupled with the dust still settling from Embraer’s sale of a majority stake in its commercial airliner division to Boeing, would seemingly keep any business jet announcements at bay for now.

Bombardier Aerospace

In dodging financial ruin, Bombardier announced its exit from a number of its business lines, but doubled-down in rail transportation and Business Aviation, suggesting the bizjet announcement pipeline should become more active going forward.

34 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

The top-of-the-line Global division has already received a makeover with the Global 5000 and 6000 becoming the 5500 and 6500, and the all-new Global 7500 just starting deliveries.

Bombardier’s middle-sized aircraft, the Challenger 350 and Challenger 650, are both overdue for other than incremental improvements. When jet buyers can’t distinguish brand new aircraft from used, there’s less incentive to pay the premium for new. With a heritage going back to the 1970s, the Challenger 650 is arguably most due for a makeover.

An even bolder move for Bombardier would be to announce an all-new Challenger replacement, and not just another incremental engine and avionics tweak that would only bore the market and limit sales.

The future of Bombardier’s smallcabin Learjet division is a question mark, with its last all-new Learjet 85 development project being cancelled and the remaining tired product line delivering just four units during H1 2019.

HondaJet

One might reason that HondaJet’s recent 82,000sq.ft. facility expansion telegraphs a new announcement.

Manufacturers need to have a family of aircraft to have a meaningful market presence, and step-up products for their existing customers.

When exploring the company’s

online job board, the call is out for engineers with expertise in wing, fuselage and systems design; all indicative of an active in-house skunkworks. Thus, either an all-new product or acquisition of an existing program such as Bombardier’s Learjet division are conceivable.

Dassault Falcon

After cancelling the brand-new Falcon 5X program and subsequently launching the Falcon 6X replacement, it’s a fair bet that any new products will be derived from the 6X wing and fuselage, eventually replacing the older generation Falcon 900 and Falcon 2000 series.

As with Gulfstream, having designs based on a modern airframe lowers labor time, parts cost and provides tooling commonality.

Textron Aviation

Textron Aviation's Cessna has its hands full with three all-new, simultaneous development programs: the recently certified Citation Longitude business jet, SkyCourier package delivery plane and Denali single-engine turboprop.

If there were to be pending new announcements it could be enhancements to the decade-old Citation CJ4 and XLS+ (call them the CJ4+ and XLS++).

Improving Conditions: Q3 Pre-Owned Helicopter Market Trends Aero Asset has released its Q3 2019 analysis of the used helicopter marketplace, revealing an improvement in the condition of the market…

According to the company, “a total 37% of pre-owned twin engine helicopter buyers were in this territory Q3, up from 31% in Q2”. Year to date (YTD), 85 twin turbine helicopters “closed to retail buyers” (across all weight classes) and twin engine supply for sale is down nearly 20% (to 230 aircraft).

Drawing on its proprietary intelligence and close knowledge of the market, Pre-owned Heli Market Trends reviews Q3 and YTD performance of twelve twin engine models in the light, medium and heavy categories, from Airbus Helicopters H135 to Sikorsky’s S92.

Airbus Leads Light Twin Market

The EC135/145 market continues to dominate re-sale activity, especially in the 2006 to 2014 year of manufacture segment. Much of the demand is driven

by US air ambulance appetite for Pratt & Whitney Canada powered SP-IFR machines. The report highlights six EC135 and seven EC145 deals pending at the end of Q3.

Light twin helicopter supply is down 17% year-over-year (YoY) and so is trading volume equating to a stable absorption rate.

Leonardo AW109 markets suffered a substantial drop in Grand & GrandNew pre-owned transaction activity. In contrast with YTD sales volume, though, Q3 is clearly an anomaly. The Power model retail sales volume remains stable.

Lower pricing triggered increased demand for the Bell 429, with three retail trades in Q3. However, a total of four retail trades YTD means the Bell 429 absorption rate remains higher than competing markets.

AW139 Dominates Medium Twin Market

The Leonardo AW139 leads the preowned medium twin market, with five retail sales in Q3 (and ten YTD). Supply continued its decrease YoY to 22 aircraft for sale at the end of Q3. This equates to an absorption rate of just 14 months.

Absorption rate has seen a significant drop YoY, which is good news for Leonardo, which recently delivered its 1,000th AW139.

The Bell 412 market remains soft with zero transactions in Q3 and only three YTD. Supply in the Airbus H155 market doubled in Q3 and absorption rate remains high with three years of supply at Q3 trade levels.

The sales volume in the Sikorsky S76C+/C++ market was flat in Q3.

Oversupply continues to hamper the C+ and the utility segments of this market.

Increased Activity in the Heavy Twin Market

The H225 saw one sale per quarter YTD. This consistent sales volume suggests a better market outlook. With sixteen units for sale however, absorption rate remains high at four years of supply at Q3 trade levels. Five deals are currently pending.

The S92 market saw its first preowned transaction in five years and supply in this market continued to decrease in Q3, down 50% YTD. page 42 MI www.aeroasset.com

The for sale fleet posted an improvement during both August and September, following a 12-month low figure in July. At 5.217, the Quality Rating remained ‘Very Good’ as Q3 closed, bettering the Q2 close of 5.196 on Asset Insight’s scale of -2.5 to 10.

At $1.358m, Maintenance Exposure (an aircraft’s accumulated/embedded maintenance expense) finished Q3 with a 12-month low (best) figure.

Maintenance Exposure to Ask Price (ETP) Ratio The ETP Ratio is a useful indicator of an aircraft’s marketability.

It’s computed by dividing the asset's Maintenance Exposure (the financial liability accrued with respect to future scheduled maintenance events) by its Ask Price.

‘Days on Market’ analysis has shown that when the ETP Ratio is greater than 40%, a listed aircraft’s time on the market increases, usually by more than 30%. During Q3 2019, assets whose ETP Ratio was 40% or more were listed for sale 76.2% longer (on average) than aircraft whose Ratio was below 40% (218 versus 385 Days on Market).

The September analytics also revealed that more than 56% of Asset Insight’s tracked models, and nearly 62% of its tracked fleet, posted an ETP Ratio greater than 40%.

As Q3 closed, the tracked fleet’s ETP Ratio improved to 64.9% compared to the 65.4% posted in June. However, this figure followed July’s 68.3% and August’s 66.8%. As was the case at the end of Q2: • Large Jets captured the top spot by posting a 12-month best ETP Ratio of 51.5%. page 44

Turboprops ceded the first place they held in August with a record high (worst) figure for the group of 58.4%.

Small Jets followed at 67.3%, reflecting a substantive improvement over the August figure and a notable reduction from June’s 68.8%.

As has generally been the case, Medium Jets came last at 74.2%, although that was an improvement over the 75.2% that closed out Q2.

mix moved this group’s Quality Rating further into the ‘Outstanding’ range for the second consecutive month, with the group posting a 12-month best Quality Rating, Maintenance Exposure figure, and ETP Ratio.

It is rare to see this level of alignment, especially going into what has traditionally been the highest trading period of the year.

With Ask Price below the 12-month average, buyers and sellers should have little trouble reaching agreement in Q4.

Market Summary Ongoing increases to the inventory fleet, even if that is not weighted toward newer models, along with continuing decreases to Ask Prices could make for an interesting final quarter to what’s been a year of lackluster transaction figures.

Medium Jets: The picture is not as stellar for Medium Jets, with the group’s Quality Rating dropping nearly 0.7% during September – although the figure still represented an improvement over Q2. Maintenance Exposure posted its third consecutive monthly increase, worsening 1.9% during Q3, while Ask Prices tumbled 2.9% in September.

Add to those troubling figures a 3.7% increase to the inventory fleet during September, and an ETP Ratio of 74.2% (although that

improved 0.6%, but Ask Price fell 5.5% to post a record low figure, while the group’s ETP Ratio posted a record high (worst) figure at 58.4%.

Add to that, this was the only group in September to post an inventory decrease (2.4%), and one can only state the obvious: the odds are against there being a better time for buyers to act…

Small Jets: This group’s asset quality improved for the first time in five months to just shy of the Q2 figure. Maintenance Exposure faired even better, improving 2.2% in September and 1.5% during Q3, and the group’s ETP Ratio improved to 67.3% versus MI www.assetinsight.com ❙ 68.8% that closed out Q2.

Ask Prices fell 3.8% during Q3, but September’s figure was actually 2.1% better than that posted in August. The primary Asset Quality Rating Key issue for sellers may well be the group’s inventory level, which increased 4.8% in September, is now up 19.6% for the year.

with the health of the used aircraft market. Questions about the used aircraft market recovery still linger.

Business jet fleet for sale percentages worldwide were up in September 2019, compared to September 2018 and represented 9.8% of the world’s fleet. However, the used jet marketplace may be transitioning soon from a traditional sellers’ market (sub-10%) to a ‘buyers’ market’ (over 10%). The total inventory for sale, worldwide, numbers 2,187 units.

Tariffs, trade wars, and global uncertainty are contributing to a weaker market in 2019 than in 2018.

Table D (above) shows the regional breakout for the Middle East GDP compared to the world total from 2019 for the next five years (projected by the Global Insight June 2019 report).

Note: The Middle East shows a weak GDP percentage growth in 2019, but is expected to gain in strength over the next five years.

From among the countries comprising the Middle East, there are currently 58 business jets (11.2%) of the Middle

East business jet fleet for sale. Cessna Citation and Hawker models account for 31% of the used business jet fleet currently for sale in the region (see Table E, below).

Middle Eastern Business Jet Fleet Summary

The Middle East region has proven highly resilient following the great recession. While 2019 has shown a very weak GDP growth and 2018 and 2019 business jet deliveries are low, this decline is due to falling business confidence in parts of the region and geopolitical tensions are all likely to be contributing factors.

It is hoped this decline will improve over the next five years. If this proves to be the case, it will be a good sign for Business Aviation.

Further growth is expected to coincide with the region’s economic expansion. We will continue to monitor the Middle East region’s business aircraft activity in future articles. ❙ More information from www.jetnet.com

Market Snapshot: Middle East Pre-Owned Sales Scene What does it take to do business in the Middle East aircraft sales marketplace? And which areas of the market are doing better than others? Dave Higdon spoke with JetHQ’s Garett Jerde to find out… hen Garett Jerde founded JetHQ in Dubai back in 2012, the Middle East’s business aircraft market was contending with a slowdown and a surplus of inventory. Today, almost eight years later, Jerde's JetHQ has carved out a niche in international transactions of business aircraft.

The company expanded its representation to include a new home-base in the US, while adding satellite offices across the globe. The company boasts offices in Kansas City, Missouri; Tampa, Florida; White Plains, New York; Wichita, Kansas; London, UK; Johannesburg, South Africa; Bangalore, India; and Zug, Switzerland (in addition to its presence in Dubai).

But the core of the company's philosophy

remains unchanged, heeding Jerde's founding philosophy; a belief that trust is the most important part of any transaction. Trust – in a region, including the Middle East, is earned and it takes time to build.

Consider that navigating the airspace of the Middle East can require myriad permits and route deviations to adhere to each nation's rules for accessing its airspace, and where landing at some nations' airports of entry requires a stop elsewhere.

But how does the complexity of the Middle East play out in transactions in used business jets? “I was in Dubai last month,” Jerde comments. “You don't feel any different. It makes buyers nervous, but in terms of traveling there and doing business it's still safe and the business is good. Still, it can www.AVBUYER.com

give buyers outside the region some nervous moments.

“I've been fortunate in my career to get to travel the whole world,” Jerde says. “Learn about the culture and you'll find good people all over the world.” As for doing business specifically in the Middle East, Jerde notes, “I find it very simple to get airplanes in and out once you learn the landscape.”

The key, he advises, is to be mindful of – and knowledgeable about – the country you're visiting.

“Most from the Western world can travel in and out (of the Middle East) easily...except Saudi Arabia, where you have to be very respectful of the country's traditions and social morals.”

Mining Middle Eastern Business Opportunities

JetHQ manages to mine new opportunities amid the challenges. “There are still people making money,” Jerde observes. “But right now, it's a selling market.

“It's not a good market for Light Jets. The range is too short for the distances involved.” Move up the scale, however, and the prospects improve.

“Most of the market in the Middle East is for Super Mid-size Jets and larger,” he says.

“We have Globals for sale; we sold a Hawker earlier this year. It's really just all about the upper end [of the market].”

Within those boundaries business has been better – but it's still viable. “Regarding the market over 2018 and 2019, the great buys are few and far 56 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

between,” Jerde reports, noting that the market has been down, even as JetHQ continues to sell between 30 and 40 aircraft annually.

“It's just finding the right broker with the contacts to get the right airplanes,” he explained.

“But you've got to have somebody on the ground to help you find that.

“Personal connections can really help customers register or de-register the aircraft and smooth the path for getting them out of the country. With the time difference and not understanding the local customs, it can be really difficult when working outside the region.

“You really have to have someone there.” And that's ultimately Jerde's philosophy for establishing JetHQ's many international offices…

Despite the comparatively flat market today, observers can expect to continue seeing JetHQ mining the Middle East for opportunities to connect a seller with a buyer elsewhere in the world. ❙ More information from https://jethq.com/

BUYING & SELLING AIRCRAFT With a focused approach on global excellence and creativity, Andre Fodor has managed flight operations for the U.N. and Flight Options as well as being a senior demonstration pilot and instructor for Embraer Aircraft. He is the Aviation Director for his current employer.

How to Buy a Jet Without Regret What are some of the considerations when shortlisting the next aircraft to buy? Why is it important to focus on needs, versus wants?

Johnsonville aviation director Andre Fodor provides some useful insights… y friend was emphatic as we discussed his new job flying an older jet model: “This aircraft never breaks,” he enthused. “Everything starts without glitches, and we dispatch every time!”

This was music to my ears, just as it should be to any other flight department manager or director of maintenance whose sleep is disrupted by reliability issues, maintenance hiccups, deferrals, delays and canceled flights.

In fact, the conversation made me rethink the process for selecting an aircraft to add to the flight department; particularly what should be considered in the analysis leading to a final purchase recommendation to our principals?

There’s merit in looking at how the airlines maintain high levels of dispatch. Scheduled airliners are ultimately revenue-generating machines. They’re not ‘babied’, stored in hangars, or washed after every flight. And they’re not maintained by one mechanic

M

with specific serial number knowledge and expertise.

Nevertheless, the scheduled airlines generally keep their aircraft flying, meeting most of their schedule demands.

The OEMs build airliners with reliability in mind.

Cockpits are relatively sparse compared to modern corporate jets and the focus is on what is needed to get the job done with operational robustness. Airline operators will always opt for reliability over style, ensuring commonality of operations, avionics, parts and training across the fleet.

What’s Necessary in Your Next Jet?

While I’m not advocating a ‘bog-standard’ approach to selecting a business jet, there should certainly be questions asked as to which equipment is really necessary, and which would fall into the ‘nice to have’ category.

Corporate cockpits tend to boast the latest in avionics, with high-definition color screens and www.AVBUYER.com

sophisticated interfaces which are aesthetically beautiful and fun to use. In the cabin, the latest options for entertainment combine a vast network of data, video and audio that raise the experience of flying private to new levels. But could all of this come at a cost to reliability?

Business jet systems are so complex that one electron hiccup may cause all to malfunction. Some modern technology has not matured sufficiently to guarantee long-term reliability. To compound the problem, there’s a growing shortage of technical expertise within the industry. Many of Business Aviation’s technicians have had to become network specialists, for example.

Sourcing the experts to maintain the complex systems on business aircraft remains a challenge, and this should be a consideration when considering the next aircraft purchase. What technology do you really need to successfully fly the mission, and what is its track record on the market? www.AVBUYER.com

Safeguarding Against Reliability Issues

As with all technology, product maturity plays an important role in helping complex systems remain reliable. As a rule-of-thumb, it takes eight months for a new aircraft to mature through all the glitches that invariably plague it as it enters service. Some airplanes have greater maturation issues, and even aircraft of one serial number will behave differently to the next. If you’re buying an airplane that is still in production, it’s worth selecting a representative to audit the critical phases of assembly and manufacture.

Older business jets face their own reliability challenges, and when you’re considering buying a jet that is no longer under manufacturer warranty, you should consider aircraft that are already enrolled on an hourly maintenance cost program.

Be aware that all things are not created equal, though. Whether a manufacturer warranty or an hourly maintenance cost program, there will be

BUYING & SELLING AIRCRAFT

“Will the airframe fulfill your load needs now and for the next five years? Growing out of an airplane too soon can create financial losses.” different levels of coverage. For example, some will cover corrosion while others may offer no protection in that regard. Although two may seem similar, warranties or hourly maintenance cost programs require careful attention and negotiation prior to a purchase.

You could also check whether there’s an OEMowned or authorized service center near to your operation, assuring that you’re not geographically isolated from maintenance expertise, technical support and training for your next aircraft when it’s needed.

And when deciding on a specific aircraft make/model to purchase, keep in mind that there are several current production models designed for similar mission needs. It’s worth considering the in-operation fleet size, because being one of a large fleet can bring advantages, such as more expertise through a larger network of service providers, and more affordable and plentiful parts.

However, you may find there’s more demand for maintenance and inspection slots, and training, forcing you to plan further ahead if you

want to keep the aircraft flying on your schedule.

Alternatively, purchasing a lesser known (new) aircraft make/model could give you deferential treatment from the OEM as a ‘brand ambassador’, rendering better terms and longer warranty agreements.

Closing Thoughts on Buying a Jet

As you choose your next aircraft, consider current and future growth in your corporation. Will the airframe fulfill your load needs now and for the next five years? Growing out of an airplane too soon can create financial losses. Besides missing the depreciation advantages, you’ll waste any investment in training, tooling and aircraft induction.

All of this makes it vital to research your next jet, getting beyond your wants and focusing on your needs. Read the supporting information and product specifications and be sure to make an educated decision based on real-life data and experiences. This will yield the best available choice, value and reliability that everyone within the corporation can be happy with. T

Aircraft Operating Costs: How Should you Measure Them?

Where are some of the common mistakes made when comparing the operating cost of one business aircraft against another? How can data be used to give a true apples-to-apples comparison? David Wyndham discusses… hen comparing business aircraft operating costs, data from multiple sources is likely to provide inconsistent results. Your first consideration should be the quality of the data and where it is from.

A quality supplier of cost data should explain exactly where and how their costs were calculated.

W

For helicopters, flying with external loads or in a high-cycle operation will significantly affect the costs. Likewise, high-frequency utility operatio ns are going to see very different costs compared to a low-utilization VIP operation. The cost of special equipment also needs to be accounted for.

To be fully understood, all costing assumptions must be stated and fully explained.

•

Operating Costs: Which Key Terms Need to be Defined?

• •

Good cost data should clarify whether you are looking at the operating costs for a new aircraft or a used model; I t should detail how many years the costs are projected (for example, a five-year budget will differ significantly from a 10-year budget); You also need to establish if the costs only cover scheduled maintenance during the projected period, or whether they accrue for other maintenance and unscheduled maintenance.

How Does Utilization Affect Operating Cost?

Many aircraft have calendar-based maintenance requirements. If an inspection is due every six months, the aircraft will have a different average hourly cost at 250 annual hours versus 500 annual hours. The trip profile will also further impact cost, as will varying fuel consumption for long or short trips. www.AVBUYER.com

Fuel cost will clearly be different for a long trip versus a short trip but what is the assumed cost of that fuel? It will create confusion if you attempt to directly compare fuel costs for Business Jet A flying a 600-mile trip at $4.50 per gallon versus Business Jet B flying a 1,200-mile trip at $5 per gallon.

There are many other terms that need to be defined beyond fuel cost. For example, are the salary costs based on two senior captains, or one senior captain and a first officer? Is the hangar-cost based on a major metropo litan area?

Maintenance costs can take days to analyse in detail. In general, you need to define the period for which the costs are assumed and clarify if they accrue for maintenance outside this period.

Are the engines accruing for only the overhaul, or are they on a guaranteed hourly maintenance program with full coverage for all engine

“There is not a single set of correct assumptions and methodology to apply when comparing aircraft costs. ” maintenance, including unscheduled events? It’s important to have a clearly defined explanation of what maintenance is assumed to be included and for how long.

You should also clarify if the costs cover fuel and maintenance costs only, or additional items too. When trying to determine the total costs to own and operate an aircraft, more data is always better.

What is the Cost per Nautical Mile?

In aviation, we have a habit of always talking in terms of flight hours. However, if the aircraft is used to transport persons from one location to another, the aircraft's job is to fly a given distance.

Airplanes that fly point to point should be compared on a cost-per-mile basis.

Let's compare a King Air 350i and a Citation CJ4. Using the default Conklin & de Decker variable cost per hour, the King Air 350i variable cost is $1,312 per hour and the CJ4 shows $1,708 per hour. There you have it, the jet costs almost $400 per hour more to operate! But what's missing here?

It’s the cost per nautical mile. If the King Air averages 281 nautical miles each hour, the cost per mile is $4.67. If the CJ4 averages 409 nautical miles each hour, the cost per mile is $4.18. What initially may look like one airplane having 30% 64 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

higher variable costs per hour really has a 1.5% per mile lower variable cost.

There is not a single set of correct assumptions and methodology to apply when comparing aircraft costs. The director of maintenance will be concerned with seeing the details of the maintenance budget. The CFO, although requiring accurate maintenance costs, will need to know the tax implications of the deal and depreciation predictions but is not likely to need all the maintenance line items. The finance representative will need a full set of costs to know that the buyer or lessee can afford to operate the aircraft, not just make the payments.

In Summary: Consider the Source

The supplier of the cost data needs to not only accurately represent the costs but also explain them and answer your questions.

Costs are not a commodity where cheaper is always better. An aircraft that has been well maintained and has up-to-date avionics and a guaranteed maintenance program will cost more to acquire than the same model with a sketchy past, poor records, and engines that are approaching a major check. In the end, it’s true to say that you get what you pay for! www.conklindd.com T www.AVBUYER.com

Gulfstream G500

Making its service entry in 2018, the G500 replaces the G450 in Gulfstream’s product line. According to Gulfstream, the G500 has a top speed of 0.925 Mach and is powered by a pair of Pratt & Whitney Canada PW814GA engines, each producing 15,144lbst.

The new jet can reach a maximum altitude of 51,000 feet and becomes the first non-military aircraft to be equipped with active side-stick control technology.

Bombardier Global 5000

The Global 5000 aircraft made its entry into service in 2005 but traces its roots to the Global Express which was the second Ultra-Long-Range & Large-Cabin business jet to be produced. The Global 5000 offers operators the advantage of a comparably short take-off and landing performance.

Dassault Falcon 7X

Dassault’s Falcon 7X has been in service since 2007, and became the first fully fly-by-wire business jet, giving pilots greater control by limiting the pitch of the aircraft. It’s equipped with the same Honeywell Primus EPIC EASy avionics used on the Falcon 900EX and 2000EX. Everything can be monitored and adjusted by the LCD displays, eliminating circuit breakers and panels and increasing the reliability of the Falcon 7X. Meanwhile, a completely new wing design helped ensure the long range offered by this jet. www.AVBUYER.com

A potential operator should focus on payload capability as a key factor when selecting the right aircraft for their need.

Table A (left) shows the Bombardier Global 5000’s Available Payload with Maximum Fuel (2,930lbs) to be slightly greater than the 2,900lbs offered by the Gulfstream G500. The Dassault Falcon 7X has the lowest Available Payload with Maximum Fuel (1,660lbs).

Cabin Cross-Section Comparison

Chart A (left) depicts the cabin crosssections of the Gulfstream G500, Bombardier Global 5000 and Dassault Falcon 7X. As shown, all three jets have the same cabin height (6.2ft) but with different cabin width. The G500 has the smallest cabin width (7.6ft) compared to the Global 5000 (7.9ft) and Falcon 7X (7.7ft).

Not depicted on the chart, the G500 has greater cabin length (41.5ft) compared to the Global 5000 (40.7ft) and the Falcon 7X (39.1ft). Overall, the Bombardier Global 5000 provides the greater the cabin volume at 1,889cu.ft. compared to the Gulfstream G500 (1,715cu.ft.) and Falcon 7X (1,506cu.ft.).

Moreover, the Bombardier Global 5000 provides a generous 195cu.ft. internal baggage space. By comparison, the Gulfstream G500 offers 175cu.ft. and the Falcon 7X 140cu.ft. internal luggage room.

Range Comparison

As depicted in Chart B (left) using Dallas, Texas, as the origin point, the Falcon 7X shows more range coverage (5,760nm) than either the Global 5000 (5,475nm) or the Gulfstream G500 (5,292nm), carrying four passengers.

Note: For business jets, ‘Four Pax Range’ represents the maximum IFR range of the aircraft at long range cruise. NBAA IFR fuel reserve calculation is for a 200nm alternate. This range does not include winds aloft or any other weather-related obstacles.

Powerplant Details

Two PW814GA engines power the Gulfstream G500 each offering 15,144lbst, and using 363 gallons per hour (gph). The Global 5000, meanwhile, is powered by two Rolls-Royce BR710-A2-20 engines, each offering 14,750lbst and burning 455gph. The Falcon 7X uses three PW307A engines, each offering 6,402lbst and burning 323gph.

Total Variable Cost Comparison

Chart C – Variable Cost Comparison Gulfstream G500

The ‘Total Variable Cost’, sourced from AirPower Software Group, see Chart C (left), is defined as the estimated cost of fuel expense, airframe system parts and labor, engine and APU reserves, and avionics protection programs.

These costs do not represent a direct source into every flight department and their trip support expenses. The methodology employed by AirPo wer to arrive at its cost values are most applicable as budgetary planning estimates only. Thus, for comparative purposes the costs presented are the relative differences, not the actual differences, as these may vary from flight department to flight department.

The Falcon 7X has the lowest variable cost ($2,901/hr) compared to the Global 5000 ($3,197/hr) and Gulfstream G500 ($3,423/hr). The Falcon 7X varia ble cost is 10.2% and 18% lower compared to the Global 5000 and Gulfstream G500, respectively.

Note: All platforms are in production so variable cost is lower due to warranty offsets.

Aircraft that are owned and operated by businesses are often depreciable for income tax purposes under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS). Under MACRS, taxpayers can use accelerated depreciation of assets by taking a greater percentage of the deductions during the first few years of the applicable recovery period.

In certain cases, aircraft may not qualify under the MACRS system and must be depreciated under the less favorable Alternative Depreciation System (ADS) where depreciation is based on a straightline method, meaning that equal deductions are taken during each year of the applicable recovery period. In most cases, recovery periods under ADS are longer than recovery periods available under MACRS. There are a variety of factors that taxpayers must consider in determining if an aircraft may be depreciated, and if so, the correct depreciation method and recovery period that should b e utilized. For example, aircraft used in charter service (i.e. Part 135) are normally depreciated under MACRS over a seven-year recovery period, or under ADS using a twelve-year recovery period.

Aircraft used for qualified business purposes, such as Part 91 business use flights, are generally depreciated under MACRS over a period of five years or by using ADS with a six-year recovery period.

There are cert ain uses of the aircraft, such as non-business flights, that may have an impact on the allowable depreciation deduction available in any given year.

The US enacted the 2017 Tax Cuts & Jobs Act into law on December 22, 2017.

Under the new Act, taxpayers may be able to deduct up to 100 percent of the cost of a new or pre-owned aircraft purchased after September 27, 2017 and placed in service before January 1, 2023.

This 100% expensing provision is a huge bonus for aircraft owners and operators.

After December 31, 2022 the Act decreases the percentage available each year by 20% to depreciate qualified business jets until December 31, 2026.

Future Residual Value Retention

How well will the values hold for each model? According to Asset Insight, the value of a Bombardier Global 5000 will decline from 54% to 30.4% over the next five years, and the Dassault Falcon 7X value will deteriorate from 51% to 33% over the same timeframe.

Details for the Gulfstream G500 are not discussed because the model ha s not been in operation for five years and there is not enough data to support an informed forecast.

$10.760 $43.040

As of September 2019, two Gulfstream G500 business jets were available on the used aircraft market with one displaying an asking price of $48.995m and the other inviting offers. By comparison, 24 Global 5000s were for sale. Seven showed asking prices ranging between $13.499m and $23.9m. Of seventeen Falcon 7Xs for sale, five showed an asking price ranging from $18.495m to $31.250m.

While each serial number is unique, the Airframe Total Time (AFTT) and age/condition of an aircraft will cause great variation in the price of a specific aircraft – even between two aircraft from the same year of manufacture. The sale price must be negotiated between the seller and buyer.

Chart G - Productivity Comparison

Productivity Comparisons

1. Four Passenger Range (nm) with available fuel; 2. The long-range cruise speed flown to achieve that range; 3. The cabin volume available for passengers and amenities.

Others may choose different parameters, but serious business aircraft buyers are usually impressed with price, range, speed and cabin size.

A 2019-model new Gulfstream G500 can be purchased at a lower price (~$47m) than a 2019-model Global G5000 (~$50m) or 2019model Falcon 7X (~$54m). However, it comes with the highest hourly variable operating costs. In its favor the G500 has a higher longrange cruise speed (488kts) compared to the rest of the field. Another key feature is the Symmetry Cockpit, introduced in 2018 when the G500 entered servi ce.

The Global 5000 offers the largest cabin volume (1,889cu.ft.) and highest ‘Available Payload with Maximum Fuel’ at 2,930lbs.

However, it entered service in 2005 and has older avionics technology installed.

Having, entered service in 2007 the Falcon 7X exhibits the highest new purchase price, but also the lowest hourly variable operating cost. It also provides the longest range (5,760nm) compared to the other study aircraft.

The points in Chart G (right) are centered on the Gulfstream G500, Bombardier Global 5000 and Dassault Falcon 7X. For added measure, we include the new Gulfstream G600, too. Pricing used in the vertical axis is as published in the Vref Pricing Guide for a 2019 model.

The productivity index requires further discussion in that the factors used can be s omewhat arbitrary. Productivity can be defined (and it is here) as the multiple of three factors:

In Summary

Within the preceding paragraphs we have touched upon several of the attributes that business jet operators value. There are other qualities such as airport performance, terminal area performance and time to climb that might factor in a buying decision, however.

Operators should weigh up their mission requirements precisely when picking which option is the best for them. Is the longest range the most important criteria? Or is speed or cabin comfort a winning factor?

Ultimately, there’s plenty for a prospective buyer to consider when deciding which aircraft is better suited to them. T

VALUES - LIGHT JETS

AVBUYER.com

Business Aircraft Values: Light Jets Where performance and value are dominant factors for a mission need, remember this: there’s nothing lightweight about the value and flexibility of the Entry-Level & Light Jets. s business jets increase in size from Entry-Level & Light jets to the low end of the Large Cabin models, six to eight seats generally remains the standard configuration across size-category lines. And while cabins increase in volume generally (enabling more productive workspace for those traveling longer distances), full-fuel payload doesn’t seem to grow proportionally in most cases.

As jets get bigger and heavier their runway needs increase, with no appreciable gain in how many people or equipment can fly – and thus we touch upon the key advantages of the Entry-Level & Light jet category - the value and flexibility offered to those who typically fly shorter legs.

Fully-fuelled, an Entry-Level or Light jet can often barely carry the typical passenger load of three persons, unless one or two of them doubles as a crew member. Nevertheless, with the average mission length below 750 miles and the nominal maximum-range of Light jets around 1,200 miles, the crew enjoys the option of flying lighter and saving fuel. Fueling for the mission with NBAA reserves allows larger cabin loads, making three or four - plus crew - possible.

The time difference between Entry-Level & Light jets and Large jets to fly a typical 75 0nm mission is small (about 10 to 12 minutes, overall) and is not a large time-saving for costs that may be considerably higher for the larger aircraft. Further, beyond these speed-range-payload operational basics, the Light jet crew will have the option of far

more airports, often closer, more convenient and less expensive than what’s needed for the Medium and Large jets. Thus, it’s hard to escape the hea vyweight value of the Entry-Level & Light jet.

So what exactly is a Light jet? Today we consider a jet “light” when its MTOW falls between 10,000 and 20,000 pounds. About a decade ago the Light segment represented the bottom rung of the business jet ladder. That was before the Entry-Level Jets entered the market, differentiated by weights below almost everything ever built at less than 10,000 pounds.

Entry-Level & Light Jet Price Guide The following Entry-Level & Light Jets Retail Price Guide represents current average values published in The Aircraft Bluebook – Price Digest. The study spans a twenty year period, from 2000 through Fall 2019, and covers 34 models. Values reported are in US$m, with each reporting point representing the current average retail value published in the Bluebook by its correspondi ng calendar year. For example, the Cessna Citation CJ2+ average value reported in the Fall 2019 edition of Bluebook shows $3.4 million for a 2009 model, $3.2 million for a 2008 model and so forth.

Note: We have included 34 aircraft models in the following Light Jets average price guide, and for additional assistance, Conklin & de Decker’s Performance and Specifications data for these models can be referred to, beginning on page 82.

Aircraft Performance & Specifications Light Jets

T

he AvBuyer Magazine Guide to Aircraft Performance and Technical Specification Data is updated by Conklin & de Decker on a regular basis. The Guide is much more comprehensive and informative, providing more aircraft types and models and including variable cost numbers for all models.

This month’s category of aircraft - Light Jets – appears opposite, to be followed by Turboprops next month.

Please note that this data should be used as a guide only, and not as the basis on which buying decisions are taken. The data presents aircraft aged below 20 years of age only, but Conklin & de Decker provides details of older airplanes too.

If there are any other ways in which we can improve the content or presentation of this information, please let us know.

Tel: +44 (0) 208 255 4000; Email: editorial@avbuyer.com © 2019 Conklin & de Decker Associates, Inc., P.O. Box 1142, Orleans, Massachusetts, 02653, Tel. 508-255-5975, www.conklindd.com

Description of Cost Elements

The following describes the content of each cost element used in The Aircraft Cost Evaluator.

There are no sales taxes included in these costs.

SPECIFICATIONS - GENERAL

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 interior volume, with headliner in place, without chairs or other furnishings.

•

Maximum Payload is the maximum zero fuel weight minus the basic operating weight.

Performance Range: • Ferry Range - is the maximum IFR range of the aircraft with the maximum fuel on board and no passenger seats occupied. This uses the NBAA IFR alternate fuel reserve calculation for a 200 N.Mi. alternate. This is used for jet and turboprop aircraft.

Seats Executive: 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.).

Cruise Speed: (Knots True Air Speed - KTAS) Max Cruise Speed - is the maximum cruise speed at maximum continuous power. This may also be commonly referred to as High Speed Cruise.

Weights: • Maximum Take-Off Weight is specified during aircraft certification.

Engines: The number of engines, manufacturer and model are shown.

Middle East Trip Support: Is it Worthwhile?

It’s well known that flying internationally brings its own trip planning challenges. But what are the common difficulties faced within the Middle East, and how does professional trip support help?

George Kinj of Fly Aviation speaks to AvBuyer’s Matt Harris… ccording to WingX Advance, during the first seven months of 2019, flying activity from Europe into the Middle East was up 1.5% Year-over-Year compared to the same period in 2018. There was a total 838 departures from Europe into the Middle East between January and July 2019.

Flights between Larnaca International Airport, Cyprus and Ben Gurion Airport, Israel accounted for 135 flights in the period, while the next busiest route between Europe and the Middle East was between Vnukovo (Moscow) and Al Maktoum International Airport, Dubai.

In terms of model types, Bombardier and Gulfstream jets were the busiest (although activity was ultimately down for these platforms), while Embraer model activity was up.

“While it greatly varies on the season and market growth in different regions, we have recently seen an influx of trip support requests coming from China,” George Kinj, founder, Fly Aviation, observes. “We’ve also seen a steady increase in requests from India, with the CIS countries also prominent, followed by European and North American flights.

“Trip support in the Middle East has become more of a necessity to operate in the region and www.AVBUYER.com

Fly Aviation Group consists of Fly Aviation Worldwide Trip Support, Fly Charters, Fly Concierge and Fly Global Dispatch Center.

we’ve seen significant growth in demand for our services each year as a result,” he adds.

Spending the past three decades in the aviation services industry, Kinj has made it his mission to bring more transparency having observed several ‘grey’ areas within the sector. In 2008 he established Fly Aviation.

“The company was built on the ideals of transparency, straight forward information and custo mer centricity,” he explains. “It’s important to provide service that doesn’t make aircraft operators jump through hoops and hurdles to get from Point A to Point B.” These core values have apparently struck a chord with operators, and more than a decade later Fly Aviation is one of the most trusted aviation service providers within the Middle East.

Why Use Trip Support in the Middle East?

But why is it important for international operators travelling into the Middle East to use an aviation service provider at all? Fundamentally, Kinj notes, international operators can find it challenging to navigate the whole process of flying into the Middle East.

“This is because of the different processes they’re not accustomed to – such as additional paperwork, pre-formatted applications and security requirements,” he explains. “And occasionally the need arises for a local entity in a particular Middle Eastern country to vouch for the passengers.

“There’s a certain level of diplomacy involved www.AVBUYER.com

when flying into the Middle East and having the right connections that speak the local dialect, and knowing the ins and out of the country helps enormously, particularly when faced with circumstances that could compromise your flig ht and schedule.”

International operators are often caught off guard on how hard it is to get a hold of a civil aviation office in the Middle East, Kinj remarks. “Apart from a few exceptional civil aviation offices, most are difficult to reach, can be unresponsive, and may not detail what is missing from a permission application that would prevent it from going through.

“Over the years, we’ve received coun tless short notice requests from operators who submitted applications weeks in advance but received no response, regardless of how many follow-ups they attempted.

“Knowing the right person in that office, and the relationship built over the years is often what is required to get your permission application, move forward and get it approved.”

Are all Trip Support Providers Made Equal?

Of course, growing demand for trip support in the region brings an increase in competition within the sector. But are all trip support providers made equal?

If not, what should an operator be careful of when selecting the best trip support provider to meet their Middle East travel needs?

“With the increased competition and newcomers popping up, sales on trip support charges and fees have spread like wildfire, and most trip supp ort companies – even the largest players - have dropped their charges and fees,” Kinj notes.

“While many foreign aircraft operators have taken advantage, there can be a failure to recognize that the trade-off for cheaper trip support is a compromise in the service quality, a lack of professional or experienced staff, and ultimately delayed flights.

“It’s essential for an international operator seeking trip support within the region to ask lots of questions regarding what they’re getting for their money.”

How Developed are Middle East Airports?

Operators need to consider the cost-savings a wellconnected trip support company can provide beyond the service charge. “Usually, an international aircraft operator will not have the same leverage on a Middle Eastern airport that a well-connected trip support provider does, due to the sheer amount of

“But be warned. Middle Eastern civil aviation offices in recent years have been more focussed on security and there are now a lot more requirements before a flight is granted permission.” flights a trip support provider brings to a Middle Eastern airport.

“As an example,” Kinj explains, “we coordinate well over one hundred flights per year and have established discounted handling rates, the most fuel-efficient routes and have sourced the most costeffective suppliers in the area.”

Offering the example of an FBO handling invoice Kinj once saw that was billed directly to a foreign aircraft o perator, he notes, “Compared to another that was billed to us for the same aircraft type and flight, our invoice included a 10% discount which we were able to pass on to our customer.”

Speaking of Middle East handling facilities, though it seemed there were several ambitious airport development projects for Business Aviation just a few years ago, the market has cooled since then. Have the development proj ects been similarly impacted?

“The infrastructure development boom for aviation in the Middle East still has a lot of fire in its core,” Kinj assures. “That’s why most of the region’s aviation infrastructure is seen as being major hubs, and crucial arteries for global trade and transportation. “But it did need to slow down a little to find the right balance between commercial growth and sustainability,” he adds.

Beyond the main hubs in the Middle East, great strides have been made to provide technological advancements in infrastructure, connectivity, comfort and security for both aircraft and passengers at most airports in the region. “Foreign aircraft operators can expect the same level or perhaps even better service at these airports.

“But there are still airports that are lacking and will be a challenge if you are a foreign aircraft operator,” he warns, highlighting another reason for operators 88 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

to invest in the services of an established trip support provider.

“Before flying into less established airports it would be best to get a reliable link at that airport for your flight who can: 1) make sure the airport has the essential equipment you might need on the ground; 2) ensure fuel is available; and 3) ma ke sure clearances have been applied for, and granted, well in advance of your flight,” Kinj offers.

How Could Middle East Flying Get Easier?

Ultimately, Kinj suggests, international operators will be delighted to see the region’s new airport facilities that go toe-to-toe with the world’s best. And despite what’s broadcast in many sections of the mainstream media, the people are among the most welcoming you could meet. That stems from the Middle East’s rich culture and heritage of brotherhood and comradery.

“But be warned,” Kinj says, “Middle Eastern civil aviation offices in recent years have been more focussed on security and there are now a lot more requirements before a flight is granted permission.

This can be overwhelming and is a frequent cause of delays for most flights into the region.

Looking to t he solution, he adds, “It’s promising that there are technological movements in the Middle East to have full automation for granting permissions and clearances, making it easier to fly here,” Kinj reveals. “Automation is on its way, but it is mostly in its infancy.

“This technological movement has been widely accepted in Middle Eastern aviation, but it’s being implemented cautiously while concerns over com promised security and national risk are addressed.”

How to Plan for a Trouble-Free Cabin Connectivity Upgrade What are the steps to take, and facts to know that will ensure your next jet cabin connectivity upgrade goes smoothly, without surprises? Dave Higdon speaks with industry expert Brian Wilson… few years ago, your company's business aircraft received an upgrade to provide the passengers with inflight connectivity. The system provided modest connectivity speeds, in-flight Wi-Fi for a small number of users, and possibly limited and expensive streaming capabilities.

The executives were wowed, their traveling companions awed and the flight crew happy to have another tool to use in their virtual flight bags.

That was then. Today, the current system's limitations constrain the passengers from enjoying the full benefits available from such systems. The current connectivity solution didn't go bad. It simply got surpassed by the unrelenting, never-ending advance of technology.

What was once a state-of-the-art system is now showing its age and technological shortcomings, such as narrow bandwidth, slow connectivity and limited connection capacity.

When new, the people traveling on the company airplane used the system sparingly, chastened by warnings of high access charges

A

and the penalizing expense of overages. Now those regular users are lobbying the flight department to bring the cabin connectivity up to speed and capable of keeping up with evolving demand.

In response, the Director of Maintenance consults with the regular users to develop a clear picture of their cabin connectivity wants and needs. Next, he contacts experts in the field – both those who supplied the current system, and those offering alternative connectivity solutions.

If some of what those experts tell you sounds familiar, that shouldn’t come as a surprise. The processes involved in understanding the options for a first system closely parallel the process of understanding the upgrade issues.

Jet Connectivity: Knowledge and Understanding are Key

Making an upgrade as trouble free as possible hinges on most of the same points that help make an original installation trouble-free. Today there are many more options than there were a few years ago, making the selection process much more complex. www.AVBUYER.com

w

Connectivity.qxp_Finance 22/10/2019 10:44 Page 2

AVBUYER.com

Helping whittle down the selection, you should consider where you predominantly fly. Do many flights take place over the sea, or on land? If so, on which continent? If your flights are mixed over-ground or overwater, you’ll need to consider a hybrid system.

Even if the aircraft size allows for use of a satellite-based system, a hybrid system with a ground-based-connectivity option can save on connection costs over land.

If, however, overwater international ops aren't in the equation, a system like the ground-based network of SmarkSky Networks and Gogo AVANCE L5 can more than deliver at lower costs to install, own and use.

Gogo Business Aviation's Brian Wilson noted that aircraft adaptability may allow the installation of bigger, better and faster – but at what cost for better access, more bandwidth and added streaming fees.

The goal is ultimately to keep surprises to a minimum, if not wholly absent from the process. But it’s beyond the technological www.AVBUYER.com

specifications that the surprises can occur.

The consensus among in-flight connectivity experts is that it’s in the contract’s fine print where the most-common, most-expensive and unhappy surprises are most-likely to emerge.

The best hope for avoiding problems begins by understanding the complexities of the contract and the hardware-installation challenges. Both can stymie an otherwise smooth, trouble-free process. Let’s start with the cabin.

Jet Connectivity Installation Interior Surprises

Wilson and many others approach the issue from the following perspective: “I've got a few ways to look at this,” he explains. “A trouble-free upgrade has to anticipate some surprises. To start, it's best to anticipate the surprises.”

Vendors provide all their prospects a quote for the project – the hardware, installation and approvals. “Quotes never include interior removal and replacement,”



AVBUYER MAGAZINE Vol 23 Issue 11

Connectivity.qxp_Finance 23/10/2019 09:44 Page 3

CONNECTIVITY

C

Streaming charges, whether by units of time or megabytes of data, are directly linked to how many people use the system – and how much they stream.

The more streaming that’s consumed, the higher the bill. And so far, there are no ‘unlimited plans’ for streaming.

Several company engineers note that if the old system limited streaming, the bills were never likely to surprise the accounts department.

“When everyone on board can stream, from when the door closes before takeoff to when it lands, the bills can be breathtaking,” one operator's avionics technician noted. “Usually the system offers a way to restrict streaming, whether the number of users or by limiting use overall. That's the best way to control the bills.”

Jet Connectivity: Hard Numbers for Software Updates

Wilson adds, “at least a majority of the time they don’t.

“We'll put the upgrade in, but in the fine print the quote notes that interior removal and replacement is not included. We do that because there's such a wide variety of interiors.”

Wilson says that today so many interiors are unique, making it almost impossible to estimate the removal challenges until the installation crew is in the aircraft.

Damage risks, for example, loom large. “If the interior removal results in a scratch on an interior panel, a side panel or piece of wood-finished trim, there's no way to anticipate that damage – or the costs of repairing or replacing the damaged article.”

Removal and replacement adds to the wear-and-tear for the items handled – and the installation work can add wear to carpeting and upholstery. Typically, the interior removal and re-installation involves nothing more than labor since no parts are planned for replacement.

But it’s best to be prepared for the unexpected.

Jet Connectivity Service Surprises

When one of the reasons for the upgrade includes better, increased streaming, another surprise looms when the service invoices arrive. Wilson offered, “People are installing our Gogo AVANCE L5 system which has the capability to stream entertainment. We urge clients to use our on board Gogo Vision service for movies and TV shows. This helps them control their service costs.”

92 Vol 23 Issue 11 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

When the new system needs to interface with existing equipment a software update may be required. That need may not have been apparent when the quote was being developed or may have only been released since the connectivity upgrade process began.

It’s best to be prepared for the potential costs of software updates, which may run into five figures, Wilson observed, along with additional cost for the labor time involved in overseeing loading the software and checking that it functions properly once installed.

It’s best to keep an open mind (and wallet) for this contingency.

Jet Connectivity: Location can be Expensive

In terms of the hardware, “The placement of an antenna can prompt a deviation from the certification standard for the airplane and require FAA approval,” Wilson adds. “Deviations to the certification standards are routine – I've never done an installation without several deviations from the STC allowing installation.

“But that leaves you needing a deviation approval (a designated engineering representative) to draw up the deviation request, new sheet-metal work, and the FAA's approval.”

These all cost and are seldom simple and easy. “Be prepared to deal with several and you won't be surprised,” he advises.

Closing Thoughts…

Ultimately, the system you choose for your upgrade needs to match what the passengers want to do; how they’re planning to use it.

The best approach is to get quotes for several levels of service, several levels of bandwidth use, and the variable numbers of hours used to get a broad view of how much use will cost.

“And make sure you know the true data costs because users almost always underestimate the cost of that streaming,” Wilson concludes. “If you walk through those steps, I assure you you'll walk out with a satisfactory system.” ❙ www.AVBUYER.com

Five Proven Value-Added Used Jet Upgrades Are you wondering how to enhance the value of your business aircraft? Jeremy Cox provides insight on the best upgrades you could focus on. What do they do, and why/how do they uphold the value of the aircraft they’re installed on? ver the past 20 years, mandated upgrades have predominantly involved changes to the avionics package on used business jets. Certainly, there have been several modifications required on airframes and engines by the issuance of an Airworthiness Directive, but these are rare.

What do I mean by the term ‘mandated upgrade’? This is any upgrade required by law to operate a specific class of aircraft (weight and number of seats), and can vary based on region of the world. You will likely recognize the following examples:

AVIONICS SYSTEM UPGRADES

•

Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) If you owned an aircraft that the above mandates applied to, you in effect had to apply the upgrades – even if you didn’t fly it internationally. That’s because not doing so made your aircraft less desirable for resale, and ultimately your aircraft’s value was reduced by at least the cost of the upgrade. In reality – however – the loss in value was often more because of the lack of utility and readiness.

What are the Top Five Business Aircraft Upgrades?

As a fleet matures over time, upgrades are developed and made available to increase the utility and/or efficiency of your aircraft. Some nonmandated upgrades are debatable as to the true benefits they offer, while others become ‘iconic’ for the make and model of your aircraft.

These quickly become expected add-ons that buyers, leasing and finance companies rely on being installed for them to proceed with a future sales transaction. With that in mind, the following are what I consider to be the ‘top five’ upgrades that are expected to be incorporated on today’s business aircraft.

Winglets

Savings in the cost of fuel can be made by installing winglets. However, the savings are recuperated over a fairly long period of time. The more immediate benefit is the visual impact. Few upgrades are as obvious as the installation of winglets. Over time, aircraft that have not been upgraded have started to stand out more than those that have them.

Winglets tend to be the first thing buyers see, both in an adver tisement exterior image and then upon their initial viewing of the aircraft.

If you operate an aircraft that doesn’t have winglets, but the majority of the fleet does, you will lose more than the cost of the upgrade through a reduced sale price that is agreed for your aircraft.

Avionics System Upgrades

The EFIS/integrated avionics system upgrade has not quite reached the stage where the marketplace expects it to have been carried out, but I believe the day is rapidly approaching. Generally speaking, the following retrofits are likely to be an expectation among buyers of pre-owned jets and turboprops in the future: Garmin G1000/G3000 for FAR Part 23 aircraft (i.e.

Twin Commander, King Air and Citation series jets, and more); • Garmin G5000 for FAR Part 25 aircraft like the Beechjet, Hawker 400XP, Citation 56 0, 750, and others; • Primus Epic, Elite, EASy and Planeview on their •

respective platforms on Gulfstreams, Falcons and Citations; and Proline Fusion for a multitude of different aircraft (Vision on the Globals) will eventually drive the used market buyers to expect this upgrade to have been incorporated before they buy.

If the avionics system is not installed on your aircraft before you sell, then you’ll again lose more than the cost of the upgrade, in the reduced sale price agreed for your aircraft.

High-Speed Connectivity/Wi-Fi

“How can you call it a business aircraft if it doesn’t have the internet and Wi-Fi?” This stands as one of the truest statements made this decade. The day has come where all prospective business jet and turboprop buyers expect an aircraft to be equipped with internet/Wi-Fi. Fortunately, data rates have gone up while data use has gone down. Especially for dual systems that incorporate both ground and satellite download/uplink transmissions.

While I may begin to sound like a broken record, it is a fact that you will lose more than the cost of the upgrade, in the reduced sale price agreed for your aircraft, if it doesn’t offer Wi-Fi/high-speed connectivity.

96 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

Enhanced Vision Systems

Synthetic vision is definitely an enhancement to situational awareness, but the fact remains that it doesn’t depict a true picture of what is ahead of you in the ‘real world’. Enhanced Flight Vision Systems (EFVS), which utilize hybrid infrared cameras, do provide a real-world view to the flight crew.

That means if there’s a runway incursion taking place ahead while you are landing in poor visibility, you will see it on your screen in real time, as opposed to a virtual-software generated image and no incursion traffic.

Surprisingly, EFVS is relatively inexpensive – even if it is integrated to display on a cockpit Primary Flight Display or Multi-Function Display. It becomes an expensive upgrade if it will feed an image to a Head-Up Display (HUD). If you already have a HUD, that’s fine, but the upgrade cost will go up dramatically if you don’t.

The bottom line is to ask what safety is worth to you – especially if you ever operate in and out of mountainous regions at night or IFR?

LED Lighting

The last of our ‘top five’ value-added upgrades are Light Emitting Diode (LED) lamps.

lamps. Since STC/PMA approved LED lamps have become available, position light failures are practically unheard of now.

Landing and taxi lights are also available, but they are ‘out-shone’ by High Intensity Discharge (HID) – which is another ‘must have’ upgrade. The power of illumination by technology is truly amazing as you can see here: • Incandescent Lamp typical light output 15,000 to 20,000 Candela • LED output typically ranges between 65,000 to 150,000 Candela • HID Lamp light output is above 1,000,000 Candela Meanwhile, the lighting you have installed in your cabin will add much to cabin comfort for its occupants, setting mood and providing minimal stress to passengers during a flight. Moreover, it can set the right ambiance when a prospective buyer is being shown around the aircraft.

In Summary…

Over the preceding paragraphs we’ve highlighted five popular value-enhancing upgrades for your business aircraft. They’re popular because they apply to a wide variety of aircraft types. Because of this, the cost of an upgrade is likely to vary widely, too, depending on the aircraft it’s being installed on. Nevertheless, the added value will invariably be worth it.

We conclude with the table below, offering a very rough guide to the value-added range, along with the range of aircraft each upgrade applies to. T

The real difference will be felt when versions of drone satcom systems are provided as suitable for transport aircraft. This is where the pressure to miniaturize without too much compromise will come into play. It doesn’t make sense to invest in a satellite system that costs the same price as the drone, so anticipate the inevitable price benefit being passed on too.

New satc om players have emerged. Companies such as Israel’s Getsat will cause the major avionics vendors to rethink, not just revise, their systems.

Getsat has an array of nano, micro and milli Ka- or Ku-band products to feast on.

and service providers will continue to embrace the three satcom frequency bands available to them, in ascending frequency range order: o L-band at 1 to 2GHz o Ku-band at 12-18GHz o Ka-band at 26.5-40GHz Generally, the higher the frequency, the more data throughput is possible. Nevertheless, where the rubber meets the road, the reality is different.

Focusing on capacity, the quality of overall service becomes more important and providers are learning to combine different technology, hardware and thirdparty service software to attain the sweet spot of reliable connectivity.

In the near-term, business jets will more closely mirror office and home-like performance. The expectation of seamless professional web operations, day and night, is key to those seated in the cabin. The greater satcom bandwidth will also n eed to accommodate live aircraft performance data as it downloads to update maintenance programs and flight department aircraft status tracking.

This is in addition to the already mature flightpath tracking, in use by many flight operations today.

However, with the introduction of ADS-B (and ADSC, and Spaced Based ADS-B), the way flight tracking is accomplished could change.

In the longer term satcom systems will remain connected across the globe handling large amounts of data, and so it is likely the focus will shift to how we can push the processing of data off the aircraft www.AVBUYER.com

and into ‘the Cloud’. In the medium term, manufacturers will strive to meet customer expectations, including the trouble-free installation of satcoms, the intuitive set up of the aircraft, and system performance as advertised.

Un fortunately, while much improved, the latter challenge still exists with MROs and patient aircraft owners today.

Space-Based ADS-B

As December 31, 2019 approaches significant attention is being given to ADS-B Out. But the ‘Out’ part is only half the story.

Few business jets have ADS-B In or are even provisioned to receive it. As is common (and understandable) in the industry, a typical operator will request to “only upgrade with what is necessary to meet the compliance requirements for my specific aircraft”. ADS-B In requires additional equipment or modifications to display other aircraft and their ‘intention’ data. Above all, it is optional.

Space-Based ADS-B (SBA) may present a different situation for operators. For the foreseeable future, there will not be a mandate, particularly if you have ADS-C (Contr act) using satcom today. You will be able to use your existing ADS-B active system and then subscribe to a third-party service provider to receive and share available global SBA data.

Of course, as has been promoted to sell ADS-B in the first place, this technology will be offering more services soon, enabling greater throughput at busy airports, tracking aircraft in remote regions, providing better enrou te surveillance, spacing and coverage,

beyond that of existing radar. With SBA, these capabilities will further extend to oceanic and remote continental flight paths.

ACAS Xu

Traffic Collision & Avoidance (TCAS) version II, with software version 7.1, is the latest iteration of the business jet and turboprop ‘aircraft to aircraft’ avoidance system. Moving into the near future, these systems will leverage improvements from the efforts being conducted by RTCA, NASA and others, centered on Detect and Avoid (DAA).

The goal is to establish a DAA ‘well-clear’ (DWC) suitable for remote-piloted aircraft, and later autonomous aircraft. For sure, a very robust surveillance resulting in a deterministic algorithm will be required.

Manned, remote and unmanned aircraft will need to monitor each other’s heading, altitude, climb rate, and airspeed at a minimum f or corrective and warning alerts, with guidance to maintain DWC. This, in turn, will later shape the ‘spherical’ aircraft, with a virtual buffer of airspace around the physical craft that helps to prevent unwanted penetration.

Future TCAS will be ACAS-X, and Xu for larger unmanned air vehicles. Think of near-future TCAS advancement as providing more avoidance choices to the pilot of a manned aircraft or remote pilot of unmanned. This will be possible by including more predictability into the decision algorithm, borne out of intelligent data.

The data used is statistical and weighted by dynamic threat level. Because data processing will become faster and use a wider bandwidth, ACAS-X (and Xu) systems will respond rapidly with updated 4D navigation guidance. Lastly, ACAS will monitor 102 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

more of its own-aircraft systems, including Advanced GPS and Space-Based ADS-B. Different to the long-term, this is where everything will be autonomous, providing plenty of redundancy via built-in provisions, countering failure at any level.

GPS L1/L2 and L5 (GPS III)

GPS uses two L- band frequencies for navigation with the L2 frequency newer than L1. The L2 allows GPS operation through various obstacles and because there are two frequencies involved, provides for more accurate positioning.

GPS L5 is due to be added in the 2021-2023 timeframe and its contributary benefit for aviation will be significant: L5 is to be used for safety-of-life in aircraft. However, for aviation, the real improvement is the introduction of GPS III before 2025, using the L5 frequency and new versions of L1 and L2, as L1C and L2C. GPS III will be deployed across 10 new satellites, to be supplemented later by another 22 GPS IIIF satellites, both under a Lockheed Martin program.

Position accuracy can be anticipated to be between 1-3m. Importantly, it will also be interoperable with other global GPS networks, improving navigation performance even further.

While all this is underway, the unmanned aviation community is embracing Real Time Kinetic (RTK) GPS that requires a local base station, dramatically improving the GPS L1 position accuracy. This works well for local operations and could be useful for the emerging eVTOL world.

Elements of RTK should find their way into future aircraft where there are familiar enroute flight paths, followed or preceded by repeated precision 3D

landings in confined spaces.

GPS is the cornerstone to so much of what we expect the future of navigation and surveillance to be. However, redundancy considerations and tamper-proofing guarantees will be foremost in the minds of regulators and manufacturers alike.

Inertial Management

The orientation of an aircraft with respect to the Earth’s surface has been a standard feature of all aircraft since the birth of aviation. Business jets have experienced an evolution of gyros throughout their total life. Today we use laser reference gyros and smaller compact packaging, leading to less SWaP(C) – size, weight and power (plus cost).

The demand for better SWaP(C) is even greater with drones and eVTOLs, while the precision of such devices is also critical, due to the way drones and eVTOL operate.

Because GPS and Inertial Positioning (Management) are both contributing to the aircraft’s combined orientated position, we are now seeing elaborate micro-devices accomplishing attitude, heading, global position and more, all in the same package.

These will later be embedded in flight management systems. Of course, in the very long term, inertial management will be limited to onboard micro sensors, having moved all processing into a cloud-based avionics processor.

Advanced Flight Path Vector (APV)

It has taken forever for business jets to embrace head-up displays (HUD). As a result, the term ‘flight path vector’ is foreign to many pilots. The flight path vector adds dynamic attitude as a reference 104 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

to the flight director cue. This has been crucial to HUD operations, where pilots — in some instances — can take the aircraft to a Category III decision height using instruments before taking over manual control.

APV will introduce this now useful HUD tool to most flight decks, with or without the new helmet displays. It will dramatically improve the flight phase of ‘continue the descent to flare and touch down’, where multi-spectral sensors now aid pilots during poor visibility.

The addition of synthetic vision and millimeter wave to the spectral sensor package will truly be a game changer for aircrews. In the distant future, these evolving capabilities will enable fully autonomous operations.

Advanced Air Data & Flight Control

The climate is beyond our control, so we will always need to sense air density, pressure and other atmospheric parameters. How we integrate, process and use this data is in human hands…

Expect to see the combined air data flight computer in an aircraft soon. Flight computers will become predictive, anticipating an aircraft’s next move. Because there will be an increasing demand for 3D operations, coupled with 4D navigation, the ability of the flight control system to perform will be crucial in so many ways. 4D operations will ensure automated arrivals at sequential waypoints, at specific points in time.

The APV associated with take-off and landing will later apply to each leg of the flight, automatically adjusting the aircraft attitude, speed, heading, roll, pitch and yaw rate to ensure 4D navigation requirements are met.

Real-Time Remote Operations

With high density airspace operations, where spacing demands and the simultaneous accommodation of all the different types of aircraft will be a challenge, real-time remote operations will become essential.

There are two key elements to these operations. One is real time and the other is remote. Remote can suggest many interpretations of off-board control, but it starts with current features of air traffic control such as FANS and Data Comm Departure Clearance that are in a sense remote.

Unfortunately, human reaction time will not suffice in the long term and we are beginning to see changes that circumvent human steps in the process. Instructions are shifting to remote commands and responses, leading to virtual realtime operations.

Essentially, real-time is a dream, but we can get closer to it and therefore permit much greater throughput with greater predictability and reliability, not subject to human fallibility.

Encryption & Cyber Protection

The further we move from manned operations, the more decisions will be made electronically, and the more vulnerability will exist. In concert with the rapid changes taking place in aviation there has to be corresponding security.

Security is not to be confused with failure mitigation, achieved by adding multiple similar systems for redundancy protection. It is not about quality or reliability. Security is only one link in the safety chain. Security is about protecting data and the continued operation of active systems on aircraft, as well as for air traffic control.

Unfortunately, as we all know, the more intelligent the protection devised, the more hackers and those with ill intent will rise to the challenge.

If encryption and cyber protection can keep up 106 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

with technology’s evolution, it will not delay progress. But this is unlikely. We can expect to see other changes in our aircraft systems within the near future. Changes will reduce the ability to hack, shut down or interfere.

Duplicate electronic clouds operating in different ways, at different frequencies, can be a long-term mitigation, but expect to see increased sophistication of what we have available in the not too distant future.

What to Expect…

The near-term evolution of avionics will see a continuation of the familiar with the addition of security certification and interoperability between technologies. By improving cyber security and integrating various sensors, industry will accommodate the concerns of regulators and enable virtual real-time operations.

Through improved capability and performance, industry will meet the demands of operators and national airspace alike. By reducing SWaP(C), business aircraft technologies will migrate into drones and e-VTOL, while game-changing Commercial off the Shelf (COTS) technology, now in drones, will mature and achieve their certification path into business aircraft.

Multi-spectral sensors, enhanced by adding millimeter wave and synthetic vision, will begin to incorporate LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) as another aid to navigation.

Above all, we’re seeing a gradual morphing of avionic technologies into Communication and Navigation/Surveillance (as one), and cabins that increasingly mimic our home entertainment or office environments.

All of this, along with live performance tracking, will extend to a global deployment of fully monitored and connected piloted aircraft.

Remote pilots and autonomous operations are inevitable, if far into the future, but we do need to work through the challenges today. ❙ www.AVBUYER.com

he flight data recorder (FDR) – more commonly known as the ‘black box’ – records the critical health data and flight characteristics of the aircraft. The information it collects can be played back for analysis providing details of how the aircraft has performed in flight.

“When the first flight data recorders were installed, they recorded minimal but essential flight information such as airspeed, altitude , heading, aircraft attitude, landing gear position, flap position and acceleration,” explains Robert Randall, director, Strategic Business Development, Universal Avionics. “Today’s newly installed FDRs can record over 1,000 parameters.”

A defining feature of the FDR is its colour, he notes.

“The recorder is required by rule to be painted bright orange or bright yellow, making it easier to locate in the u nfortunate event of a post-crash or incident investigation. An underwater locator beacon (ULB) is also installed that helps to locate the box in the event of a crash into a body of water.

“The original FDRs recorded on a metal foil, then tape much like a cassette or eight track tape. Today’s recorders utilize digital recording technology which allows a very high volume of data to be recorded,” he adds.

The data that’s captured from the FDR can be easily downloaded and utilized for troubleshooting the health of the aircraft, and can also be used to play back the entire flight profile of the aircraft and determine exactly when an event happened and how the aircraft responded to the event either naturally or from pilot input.

There’s lots that FDRs can do to enhance safety in Business Aviation. “The FDR is th e survivable ‘Black Box’ whose primary role is to record flight data on commercial aircraft for incident analysis,” reiterates Mark Shoemaker, senior director, Leasing Companies and Business Aviation, Teledyne.

“Those aircraft operators with an FDR can manually retrieve flight data for analysis and flight data monitoring (FDM). This analysis and monitoring of flight data can be done for individual flights or can be aggregated from multiple flights, looking for adverse aircraft conditions that could affect flight safety and provide animation of flights for improved operations.”

T

Modern FDRs: More Than Just ‘What Happened’

“Historically, the parameters captured by FDRs from avionics and mechanical systems were used by accident investigators to answer ‘what happened’ in the event of an incident or accident. They reported on subsystem failure. The data leading up to - and at the time of the www.AVBUYER.com

incident - helps determine the root cause,” says Darshan Gandhi, business development manager, L3 Harris.

“As the avionics and data on-board the aircraft has grown in sophistication and data collection, so has the capacity of the FDRs. The FDRs collect thousands of data points that can be used to improve flight operations a nd pilot training.

“Additionally, analysing cross-fleet data is being used to develop learning algorithms for predictive maintenance, which can reduce AOGs, reduce maintenance costs and improve flight safety.”

Indeed, the information recorded by FDRs may be used by aircraft manufacturers or maintenance providers to make design changes or to predict necessary repairs, preventing a potentially catastrophic incident from occurring.

“In some cases, flight instructors can use the information to help guide or critique a pilot’s flying abilities based on the flight characteristics recorded”, explains Randall.

FDRs: What Drives the Need to Retrofit?

Flight Data Recorders can be retrofitted in many aircraft.

“An operator would need to retrofit an older aircraft with a new FDR when regulations call for this to be done,” says Chris Christianson, Avionics Technical Representative, Duncan Aviation.

“The decision is primarily driven by a regulatory requirement or safety,” Shoemaker adds. “A desire to gain operational efficiency and reliability can also be deciding factors.”

The driving factors for the retrofit on older business jets or turboprops are mandates and step changes in technology. “Today, mandates require near ly all aircraft transporting the public to be equipped with both a flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder (CVR),” explains Gandhi.

“The magnetic tape recorders are no-longer supported as the industry has moved to solid-state recorders with more stringent environmental requirements for crash survivability.

“If the aircraft is an older one and was not delivered with an FDR, most likely an operator w ill not install an FDR unless mandated to do so by the authorities. It can be an expensive upgrade dependent upon the required parameters that need to be recorded as specified in the certification paperwork or the approved STC package,” says Randall.

So what is most advisable solution for operators of older aircraft requiring an upgrade? And what are some of the considerations for those needing to make an upgrade? Discover more next month in the concluding part to this article. ❙ AVBUYER MAGAZINE Vol 23 Issue 11 2019

Gulfstream Raises the Bar With New G700 Flagship

Gulfstream Aerospace introduced a new flagship to its fleet on the eve of NBAA-BACE. The Gulfstream G700 will blend ultra-long-range, speed and performance with flight-deck innovation and cutting-edge cabin creation, says the OEM. ll-new, high-thrust Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines have been selected to power the G700 and, along with newly designed Gulfstream winglets, ensure the aircraft achieves high performance capabilities with its larger cabin. The G700 will offer 7,500nm range at Mach 0.85 or 6,400nm at Mach 0.90.

“The Gulfstream G700 takes the very best elements from our most innovative products and unites them with cutting-edge advances to create an all-new, advanced-technology aircraft that redefines safety, comfort and range at speed,” said Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream, as a video of the aircraft taxiing under its own power at Gulfstream headquarters in Savannah was played.

A full-scale mockup of the G700 was on show at the event.

“Gulfstream has a long tradition of listening to our customers, and the G700 cabin is the evolution of that collaboration,” Burns explained.

Cabin Design: Global Travel in Mind According to Gulfstream, the aircraft boasts the tallest, widest and longest cabin in the industry. The cabin offers up to five living areas. It includes an extra-large ‘ultragalley’ with a passenger lounge or crew compartment; a six-place dining or conference room; and a master suite with shower.

The aircraft also offers a range of cabin amenities, including a highly advanced circadian lighting system. The Gulfstreamdeveloped technology recreates sunrise and sunset through thousands of white and amber LEDs, helping ease the cabin occupants into new time zones and greatly reducing the physical impact of traveling halfway around the world non-stop.

Program Maturity Gulfstream has already accomplished nearly 14,000hrs of lab testing, and has successfully completed ground vibration testing, engine runs, loads calibration and all structural testing required for first flight.

The G700 flight-test fleet will incorporate five traditional test aircraft and one fully outfitted production test aircraft.

Manufacturing for all test aircraft is well underway. Gulfstream anticipates G700 customer deliveries in 2022.

112 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

Cockpit Design: Touchscreen Technology For the pilots, the G700 features the Symmetry Flight Deck and other new safety advancements. Along with active-control sidesticks and the industry’s most extensive use of touch-screen technology, the flight deck also comes standard with Predictive Landing Performance System, providing pilots with advanced warning of potential runway excursions so they can adjust approaches or go around.

The G700 Symmetry Flight Deck also comes standard with Gulfstream’s Enhanced Flight Vision System and Synthetic Vision on dual head-up displays.

Bombardier Global 7500 Jet Flies Farther…Again!

Bombardier’s Global 7500 has flown a mission in excess of 8,000nm, successfully connecting Sydney and Detroit non-stop, representing the longest city-pair route in Business Aviation to be flown by a purpose-built busines jet…

W

ith low tailwinds averaging approximately 20kts, the Global 7500 aircraft smoothly completed the journey from Sydney, Australia to Detroit, Michigan in October.

Point-to-point distance between the two cities is 8,225nm, eclipsing the 7,990nm distance between Singapore and Tucson, that the plane previously flew.

Global 6500 Enters Service…

Meanwhile, Bombardier has also celebrated the entry-into-service of the latest addition to its Global family; the Global 6500 jet, an achievement that comes on the heels of Transport Canada certification of both the Global 5500 and Global 6500 in September. EASA Certification followed in mid-October.

“We’re celebrating a significant milestone with the entry-into-service of this exceptional aircraft,” said David Coleal, president, Bombardier Aviation.

116 Vol 23 Issue 11 2019 AVBUYER MAGAZINE

“We’re proud of the work our team and our suppliers have done to deliver a technologically advanced aircraft that exceeds our customers’ expectations in terms of unparalleled comfort, superior performance and an incomparable smooth ride.”

The Global 6500 provides a range of 6,600nm, with a top speed of Mach 0.90.

It can connect New York to Dubai, and Hong Kong to London.

Cirrus Aircraft recently announced its TRAC Series, a purpose-built configuration of the best-selling SR line of aircraft, developed specifically for flight training institutions. The TRAC Series is crafted with reliability, durability and economy in mind and is being offered at a price point considerably less than a SR20, SR22 or SR22T. www.cirrusaircraft.com

American Kodiak August.qxp_Layout 1 18/07/2019 16:31 Page 1

The Kodiak 100 One Plane That Can Do It All www.AmericanKodiak.com An American Department of Wildlife and Fisheries chose the Kodiak 100 because it is easy to work on, easy to fly, and safe with great flight handling. For the complete story, visit our website at www.americankodiak.com/blog

RUGGED

One of their specialties is duck and geese surveys – taking estimates of the duck and geese population from the air. They need an aircraft that the flight crew could safely maneuver in tight spaces with tough landing gear and rugged tundra tires for all their field landing missions.

RELIABLE

Safety was a top concern. The Kodiak 100 can deliver their entire team – biologists, observers, flight crew and equipment – safely to remote locations involving variable takeoffs and landings, weather conditions and lengths of flight. The Kodiak 100’s unmatched STOL performance, sturdy landing gear, advanced avionics and turbine power reliability (750HP) make it all possible.

VERSATILE

The cargo pod allows the department to manage passenger and cargo capacity that optimizes use of space in the Kodiak 100.

They can carry 2 or 3 biologists, observers and flight crew with comfort. The large opening in the back even allows them to easily relocate whooping cranes as necessary.

Cessna Citation Longitude Receives FAA Type Certification Textron Aviation announced Type Certification was received from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for its Super-Mid-size Cessna Citation Longitude, paving the way for customer deliveries…

H

ailing a ‘new era,’ Ron Draper, president and CEO, Textron Aviation exclaimed, “The Longitude revolution starts now.” FAA Type Certification follows the most robust flight, structural and component qualification testing completed on a Citation to date, he added.

The experimental and demo fleet completed close to 6,000 hours of flight time. In addition to 11,000 test points during the certification process, the Longitude also completed a 31,000nm world tour, demonstrating the aircraft’s long-range performance capability and reliability in a variety of environments.

Textron says the Citation Longitude is designed around the pilot experience, passenger comfort and overall performance, delivering an aircraft that lives up to its designation as the flagship

of the Citation family of business jets.

With seating for up to 12 passengers, including an optional crew jump seat, the Longitude features a stand-up, six-foot tall flat-floor cabin, and achieves an improved transcontinental range of 3,500nm and full fuel payload of 1,600lbs. The longestrange Citation delivers a maximum cruise speed of 483ktas.

PRODUCTS & SERVICES 10 Billion Gallons of Jet Fuel Saved, 105 Million Tons of Carbon Dioxide Eliminated Aviation Partners, Inc. (API), the world leader in advanced winglet technology announced that its unique Blended Winglet and Split Scimitar Winglet technologies have saved the world’s commercial and business jet operators more than 10 billion gallons of jet fuel, resulting in a corresponding global reduction of over 105 million tons of CO2 emissions. According to U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics for 2018, 10 billion gallons of jet fuel would operate API’s “Hometown Partner” – Alaska Airlines’ entire fleet of aircraft for nearly 14 years. Or, provide fuel for the roughly 450,000 cars in the city of Seattle for 34 years.

Blended Winglets have now been installed on almost 9,000 aircraft, including the Dassault Falcon 900/2000/50 series, Hawker 800 series, Gulfstream II and Boeing BBJ business jets; and the Boeing 737-300/-500/-700/- 800/-900/-900ER, 757-200/-

300 and 767-300ER/F airliners. Split Scimitar Winglets are now flying on over 1,200 aircraft including the Boeing 737-700/-800/900/-900ER and BBJ. “Although we continue to be very proud of our position as the leader in fuel and emission saving Winglet technology, our tenacity for developing new technology for commercial aerospace is greater than ever,” said Joe Clark, founder and chief executive officer of API, founder and chairman of APB, and founder and chairman of APiJET. “We are extremely excited about our recent progress with APiJET, which is focused on providing real-time aircraft data driven analytics, proving to our customers once again that we never stop looking for ways to boost aircraft operational efficiency.”

In the mid-1920s up to 40% of the world commercial air traffic was operated by Junkers aircraft.

Today the first all-metal airplane in the world is being manufactured in a small series as a certified aircraft by skilled craftsmen in complete compliance with the original design details. The metal work, cockpit and cabin fittings are crafted with meticulous precision, and a love of detail drives the entire design and manufacturing process.

This is an unrivalled opportunity to own an almost unique airplane that has played a significant role in shaping aviation’s rich heritage.
