Bjets Order Release News Release Press Contact: Andrew Broom +1.316.676.8674 [email protected] www.hawkerbeechcraft.com Hawker Beechcraft Corporation Receives Order for 20 Hawker Aircraft from Emerging Fractional and Block Charter Company SINGAPORE (Feb. 19, 2008) - Hawker Beechcraft Corporation (HBC), the world’s leading business, special-mission and trainer aircraft manufacturer, announces an order from BJETS for 20 new Hawker business jets (11 Hawker 900XP and nine 850XP jets), with options for an additional 10 aircraft. The total value of the order with options is in excess of $450 million. The aircraft will serve throughout India and Southeast Asia. BJETS is a private company that provides innovative business aviation services to corporations and high net-worth individuals in Asia. Offering their services in India and Southeast Asia, the new company is based in Mumbai, India and Singapore, with a flight operations center based in the new Hyderabad International Airport in India, and focuses on fractional, block charter and aircraft management services. Operations in India are scheduled to begin by the end of the first quarter 2008. BJETS was founded by entrepreneur Bala Ramamoothry and the Tata Group, one of India’s largest and most respected business conglomerates. Mark Baier, a well known and highly experienced leader in the business aircraft industry, will lead BJETS as CEO. “BJETS represents the entrepreneurial spirit that is prevalent in India and Southeast Asia, and we are excited that they will utilize our Hawker aircraft for their new service,” said Jim Schuster, Hawker Beechcraft Corporation chairman and CEO. “With the increase in general aviation activity in the region and their experienced team, BJETS is a pioneer in introducing fractional ownership in the region and is well positioned to become a leading service provider of private jet travel.” - More - BJETS Hawker Order – Page 2 The growing Indian economy, which is now the third largest in Asia behind China and Japan, has created a dramatic increase in general aviation activity and travel needs throughout the region. In 2007 India grew to become the third largest market for HBC products behind the United States and Brazil. HBC is committed to growing its brand in the region through world class, in-country sales and support partnerships. Hawker aircraft are supported in the region by InterGlobe, who will be holding a ribbon cutting ceremony on Thursday, February 28th to open their new Hawker Beechcraft Authorized Service Center in Delhi. The Government of India Minister for Commerce and Industry, Kamal Nath and Minister for Aviation, Praful Patel will be participating in this important event. “The Hawker 900XP and 850XP are the latest evolution of the best selling midsize jet of all time,” said Mark Baier, chief executive officer, BJETS. “Their industry leading performance and exceptional reliability is legendary and we want only the best for our customers. In addition, Hawker Beechcraft’s global network of authorized service centers will ensure our customers receive the service and support they deserve.” As a result of the double digit Asian market growth in 2007, Hawker Beechcraft has also strengthened their international presence across the region and opened a Divisional headquarters in Singapore with outlying offices in Australia, China, Middle East and Africa. The combination of increasing global wealth, a weak U.S. dollar and the realization by global leaders that private jets are key assets to their success, has helped Hawker Beechcraft grow its percentage of international business to approximately 60 percent. The Hawker 800-series is the world’s best-selling mid-size business jet of all time and the Hawker 900XP is part of a strategically planned sequence of upgrades for the Hawker fleet of airplanes. The Hawker 900XP offers improvements in range, hot and high altitude takeoff performance and reduced cost of operations. The maximum range (NBAA IFR reserves) with four passengers for the Hawker 850XP is 2,642 and 2,818 for the 900XP. At high speed cruise, the Hawker 850XP has a 2,142 nautical mile range and the 900XP has a 2,338 nautical mile range. The Hawker 850XP and 900XP share the same cabin size and the largest cross section in their class. The Hawker 900XP will be on display at the Singapore Air Show, February 19-22.

Abstract: Recently, the new Green Deal policy initiative was presented by the European Union. The EU aims to achieve a sustainable future and be the first climate-neutral continent by 2050. It targets all of the continent’s industries, meaning aviation must contribute to these changes as well. By employing a systems engineering approach, this high-level task can be split into different levels to get from the vision to the relevant system or product itself. Part of this iterative process involves the aircraft requirements, which make the goals more achievable on the system level and allow validation of whether the designed systems fulfill these requirements. Within this work, the top-level aircraft requirements (TLARs) for a hybrid-electric regional aircraft for up to 50 passengers are presented. Apart from performance requirements, other requirements, like environmental ones, Citation: Eisenhut, D.; Moebs, N.; are also included.

  • Government and British Civil Aerospace 1945-64.Pdf
    Journal of Aeronautical History Paper No. 2018/04 Government and British Civil Aerospace 1945-64 Professor Keith Hayward Preface This paper is something of a trip down an academic memory lane. My first book, published in the early 1980s, carried a similar title, albeit with a longer time span. While it had the irreplaceable benefit of some first hand memories of the period, the official record was closed. A later history of the UK aircraft industry did refer in part to such material dating from the 1940s, but access to the ‘secret’ historical material of the 1950s and beyond was still blocked by the then “Thirty Year” rule. By the time the restrictions were relaxed to a “Twenty Year” rule or even more by the liberality offered by “Freedom of Information” legislation, I had moved on to the more pressing demands of analysing the world aerospace industry for the SBAC. 1 My years at the Royal Aeronautical Society afforded a bit more scope. Discovery of an archive on the formation of the British Aircraft Corporation, and published by the Royal Aeronautical Society’s Journal of Aeronautical History 2, stimulated a hankering to open more musty files on the 1950s. This led to a series of articles published in the Aviation Historian. However much this satisfied an initial hankering to look back to a critical period in UK aerospace, there were gaps to be filled in the narrative and the analysis. With the encouragement of the Editorial Board of the Journal of Aeronautical History, I have endeavoured to provide a more coherent overview of government policy towards the civil sector.
