Middle East Business Aviation Middle East Business Aviation Conference is bizav master class by Charles Alcock The first Middle East Business Aviation Conference (MEBA) is to be held in Dubai on November 19, on the eve of the Dubai Air Show (November 20 to 24). The event is a response to rising levels of interest in business aircraft from a widening prospective client base throughout the region. According to Royal Jet, the Abu Dhabi- based executive charter operator acting as host, the conference will present various options for aircraft use (such as full and fractional ownership, management and charter) and answer frequently asked questions about this mode of transportation. In this respect it will be a sort of business aviation master class, with contributions from aircraft manufacturers, finance companies, operators, completions specialists, lawyers and existing customers. The static display at this year’s Dubai Air Show will provide plenty of opportunities for visitors to check out the newest offerings in business aviation. Former NBAA president Jack Olcott is putting together the MEBA agenda and acting According to Balkar, business people and aircraft data specialist Airclaims tell as conference chairman.

  • Business Opportunities in Aircraft Cabin Conversion and Refurbishing
    Business Opportunities in Aircraft Cabin Conversion and Refurbishing Mihaela F. Niţă1 and Dieter Scholz2 Hamburg University of Applied Sciences, Berliner Tor 9, 20099 Hamburg, Germany This paper identifies several meaningful business opportunity cases in the area of aircraft cabin conversion and refurbishing and predicts the market volume and the world distribution for each of them: 1.) international cabins, 2.) domestic cabins, 3.) aircraft on operating lease, 4.) freighter conversions and 5.) VIP completions. This implies the determination of cabin modification/conversion scenarios, along with their duration and frequency. Factors driving the cabin conversion and refurbishing are identified. Several aircraft databases, containing the current world feet as well as the forecasted fleet for the next years, are analyzed. The results are obtained by creating a program able to read and analyze the gathered data. It is shown that about 38000 cabin redesigns will be undertaken within the next 20 years. About 2500 conversions from jetliners into freighters and 25000 cabin modifications at VIP standards will emerge on the market. The North American and European markets will keep providing good business opportunities in this area. The Asian market, however, is growing fast, and its very strong influence on demand puts it in the front rank for the next 20 years.

Besides giving the airplanes a distinctive appear- ance, the winglets create more efficient flight characteristics in cruise and during takeoff and climbout, which translate into additional range with the same fuel and payload.

The winglets increase the spread of the vortices along the TE, creating more lift at the wingtips (figs. 2 and 3). The result is a reduction in induced drag (fig. 4). The maximum benefit of the induced drag reduction depends on the spanwise lift distribution on the wing. Theoretically, for a planar wing, induced drag is opti- mized with an elliptical lift distribution that minimizes the change in vorticity along the span. For the same amount of structural material, nonplanar wingtip 737-800 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS devices can achieve a similar induced drag benefit as a planar span increase; however, new Boeing airplane designs Passengers focus on minimizing induced drag with 3-class configuration Not applicable The 737-800 commercial airplane wingspan influenced by additional 2-class configuration 162 is one of four 737s introduced BBJ TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS The Boeing Business Jet design benefits. 1-class configuration 189 in the late 1990s for short- to (BBJ) was launched in 1996 On derivative airplanes, performance Cargo 1,555 ft3 (44 m3) medium-range commercial air- Passengers Not applicable as a joint venture between can be improved by using wingtip Boeing and General Electric.

Its economic success depends on performance, low maintenance costs and high passenger appeal and design plays a vital role in summing up all these factors. Conceptual design is the first step to design of an aircraft. In this paper a business jet aircraft is designed to carry 8 passengers and to cover a range of 2000 NM with maximum Mach No of 0.7 and with maximum ceiling of 29,000 ft. The conceptual design consisted of initial sizing, aerodynamics and performance analysis. Through trade studies and comparison with other business jet aircrafts a final model of the aircraft was built to achieve the requirements. Key Words: Business jet, Conceptual design, Initial Sizing, Aerodynamics, Aircraft performance, Trade study. 1. Introduction Airplane design is an art with scientifically approach. It requires both the intellectual engineering and ngiseD ygolDchceT cDogne sensible assumptions.
