Twins in an Ever-Changing Business Aviation World, Turboprops
Textron is betting big 16 with the Cessna Denali that turboprops have a solid future. Twins Dornier Seastar After several years of uncer- tainty, the centerline push-pull, all-composite amphibian twin appears back on track after the Dornier family formed a new joint venture (Dornier Seawings) to manufacture the aircraft with China’s Wuxi Industrial Development Group and the Wuxi Communications Industry Group. It then struck a deal in February this year for component airframe parts for the first 10 aircraft to be manu- factured at Diamond Aircraft’s by Mark Huber plant in London, Ontario, and shipped to Dornier Seawings in 16 Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany, In an ever-changing business aviation world, turboprops for final assembly.

Sustainable Aviation Gasoline Alternatives
Hot Topics in GA 1 Running Head: HOT TOPICS IN GENERAL AVIATION Hot Topics in General Aviation: Sustainable Aviation Gasoline Alternatives By Marcellette Cloche Masters in Business Administration Thesis International School of Management in Paris, France March 12, 2010 Word Count: 35,886 Hot Topics in GA 2 Acknowledgements & Dedication A heartfelt thank you to the many members of the general aviation community including regulatory agencies, interest groups, manufacturers, experts, oil and fuel additive companies, and potential fuel formula holders. You were all accessible and extremely generous with your time and I would never have been able to draw any conclusions without your participation. This 30-year-old plus situation is a very complicated and likely expensive one for all stakeholders involved, and I have tried to present its many facets at a beginner pilot‘s level to be able to reach the novice: the future generation of pilots. The dynamics and risks at stake are not easily identifiable to the outsider, and even for those directly involved in the process, it seems possible that politics and competition to retain one‘s market positioning could have added to the complexity. That is to be expected on a free market and cannot be avoided. Regardless of why we are in the situation we are in, the fact remains that the leaded aviation gasoline that we have been using and available to us for decades and where high performance piston-powered spark-ignition engines have been designed to harness this fuel‘s potential is on the verge of extinction. Safety and reliability must not be compromised, yet speediness of approval in whichever format that certification comes about must take precedence. -

It is safe to say that this inau- gural event exceeded our best hopes, with an excellent turnout of delegates filling the Conference Hall to hear some tremendous and very thoughtful - and thought ROSA BELLANCA Commercial Director provoking - presentations that were genuinely future-orientated. I’ll let the report [email protected] tell the rest of the tale, but one of the most heartening things about the event was the way a number of senior executives from companies who hadn’t sponsored this inaugural event, came up to congratulate the organisers and to express their MAX RAJA Sales Manager intention of supporting the event in 2015.
