Printed in Canada November/December 2016 5 COLUMN IN THE JUMPSEAT The business jet industry is stumbling again. It never fully recovered from the devastating post-2008 meltdown, and is now being hit by another downturn. While the damage this time appears to be focused on the large cabin segment, small and medium jet demand is still weak. Deliveries of these workhorse aircraft fell 57 per cent by value in 2008- 2010, and output last year was still 45 per cent lower than the 2008 market peak. Clearly, it’s time to ask whether there are too many players in this segment. In particular, it may be time for Learjet to end its life as a new aircraft producer. First, there are two successful players in this segment. Cessna and Embraer actually succeeded in modestly growing their output and market share in 2015. Meanwhile, WILL A turboprop manufacturer Pilatus looks set to successfully enter the light jet business, with the PC-24. But Learjet is floundering badly. Last year’s cancellation of the Lear 85 program effectively LEARJET destroyed all hope of a new model. Just six Model 70/75s were delivered in the first half of this year, compared with an average of just over 30 per year in 2013-2015. SALE CHANGE The Model 70/75 upgrade was a very modest improvement to the 40/45, which have been built for almost 20 years. That’s not a terribly long time, but these models still use Honeywell’s aging TFE731 turbofan. ANYTHING? Gulfstream’s decision to terminate the G150 in September ended one of the last applications for this engine, leaving just a token number of Falcon 900s. Honeywell BY Richard AboulaFia might like to move on, too. Meanwhile, Bombardier could use the money from a Learjet sale. The company has had serious financial problems while trying to bring the C Series jetliner family to market, and its current business jet priority is the Global 7000/8000 development program. Meanwhile, Gulfstream’s G150 termination shows that having a mid-sized jet is no great advantage for a large cabin manufacturer, a point underlined by Dassault’s lack of interest in returning to the mid-cabin market it abandoned decades ago. Indeed, if it kept Learjet alive, Bombardier would be the odd man out among the high-end brands. However, it is difficult to imagine who would buy Learjet for its new build programs. Conceivably, China could be interested, but there’s little point in buying relatively old intellectual property, and China’s aviation industry has shown little interest in actually purchasing a Western prime. They purchased Cirrus, but they balked at the opportunity to buy Hawker Beechcraft, which had several newer products than Learjet’s line. Textron/Cessna, of course, is a possible acquirer, and the company says it would be interested in Learjet “at the right price.” But this would be a repeat of the Hawker Beechcraft acquisition experience, with the unit’s legacy jet programs immediately closed down.

  • 1; Just After Midnight on May 31 2013, an Air Ambulance Helicopter Crashed Shortly After Take-Off from the Airport at Moosonee Ontario on James Bay
    ONTARIO COURT OF JUSTICE Central West Region Brampton Ontario BETWEEN: HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN -and- 7506406 CANADA INC. (ORNGE) REASONS FOR JUDGMENT Duncan J. 1; Just after midnight on May 31 2013, an air ambulance helicopter crashed shortly after take-off from the airport at Moosonee Ontario on James Bay. Tragically, the two pilots, Captain Don Filliter and First Officer Jacques Dupuy and two paramedics, Dustin Dagenais and Chris Snowball, were killed. 2. The helicopter was operated by Omge air ambulance service. Omge is a non­ profit company contracted to the Ontario Ministry of Health to provide air ambulance service, both fixed wing (airplane) and rotor-wing (helicopter), in the province. The defendant numbered company is a federal corporation owned by Omge that operates the rotor-wing division. 3. The defendant corporation was originally charged in an information sworn May 29 2014 with 17 counts under the Canada Labour Code. Many of these counts were withdrawn at the start of the trial and others were withdrawn or amended during the trial. An earlier ruling in this case details the circumstances surrounding those events: see 2017 ONCJ726. 2 4. At the end of the evidence the defendant stood charged with six remaining counts, all contrary to sections 124 and 148 of the Canada Labour Code, of failure to ensure employee safety in three particularized ways. Later, in written and oral submissions, the Crown furthered narrowed the case by seeking convictions on only 3 counts: • Count 3: that on or about May 31 2013, 7 5 06406 Canada Inc failed to ensure employee safety, contrary to section 124 of the Canada Labour Code Part II, by failing to provide pilots with a means to enable them to maintain visual reference while operating at night, thereby committing an offence contrary to section 148(1) of the Canada Labour Code Part II.

  • An Open Letter to the Prime Minister of Canada and All Premiers
    An Open Letter to the Prime Minister of Canada and all Premiers As a society, we have faced a threat like no other, COVID-19. And we are still dealing with it. Under the leadership of our governments, we agreed to implement tough decisions to protect our health and safety. We shut down our schools, our businesses, and our borders. We all made sacrifices and continue to adapt to this new reality. Now, it seems, we are getting through the worst of it. As we re-open, we are learning to live with the virus, not hide from it or from each other. And, just like we are re-opening the front doors of our homes and businesses, we need to re-open the doors of our provinces, territories – and our country. The Canadian travel, tourism and hospitality sector employs 1.8 million people and contributes $102 billion to our economy. It relies on the summer season to survive. As Canadians, we wait all year to travel during the summer. We need the summer. Like you, we believe personal safety is critical. However, many of the travel restrictions currently in place are simply too broad or unnecessary. Limitations on inter-provincial travel that restrict Canadians from freely exploring our country, should be removed. Canadians should be free to travel across Canada. We also need a more targeted approach to international travel. The mandatory 14-day quarantine and complete closure of our country to all visitors from abroad is no longer necessary and is out of step with other countries across the globe.
