PRE-OWNED FALCON

A FALCON MAY LEAVE THE NEST, BUT IT NEVER LEAVES ITS FAMILY. No one knows a pre-owned Falcon better than Dassault. We designed and built it. And when the time comes to deliver it to a new owner, we prepare it with the same care and support it with the same commitment as any new Falcon.

Because every Falcon and every Falcon owner are family.

Welcome

Looking Ahead…

With Confidence

elcome to AvBuyer’s third decade of serving the informational needs of business aircraft owners and operators. Starting life as World Aircraft Sales Magazine in November 1996 and targeting the market for pre-owned jets and turboprops, this magazine has grown into relevance for the entire community of companies and entrepreneurs using Business Aviation to meet their travel requirements.

While twenty years is a relatively short period, much has happened since 1996. There have been impressive highs and troubling lows for Business Aviation, but on average progress has been - and continues to be - positive.

The health of our community is not measured solely by the number of new business aircraft sold each year…or, for that matter, the number of preowned aircraft available for sale. Rather, its sign of success is the number of active users of business aircraft over time. By that metric, our community is strong and growing.

Furthermore, there is no indication the number of users has peaked or is headed for a fall.

Commerce requires the timely, efficient and effective transportation that only business aircraft can provide, whether that aircraft was acquired new from its OEM, pre-owned from a user or broker, or chartered.

Business Aviation addresses travel needs that the Scheduled Airlines cannot serve—and do not want to serve. Airliners connect city pairs where traffic flow is huge. With its ability to operate on demand, when needed and as needed, Business Aviation provides service that cannot be met with the business model of scheduled air carriers.

Companies and entrepreneurs need both forms of mobility. In essence, Business Aviation and Scheduled Airlines are ‘partners’ in satisfying the travel needs of industry. Such will continue to be the case well beyond the next 20 years.

AvBuyer serves all active participants in Business Aviation, and we will continue to provide meaningful intelligence to that broad community for decades to come. Surveys show that the editorial content published in AvBuyer is read and respected at all phases of the ownership experience. Readers tell us that our articles enable them to stay current on all aspects of Business Aviation, regardless of when or how they became involved with business aircraft.

Just as Business Aviation has evolved from a

W

relatively misunderstood means of travel to become an ordinary travel option, AvBuyer has expanded its focus to be relevant to all participants in Business Aviation.

At AvBuyer, we believe Business Aviation provides unique value and will continue to offer benefits vital to the ebb and flow of commerce worldwide. We are proud to serve.

In This Issue

Join Dave Higdon as he reflects the key happenings within the Business Aviation community in the 20 years since AvBuyer was first published. In addition, you can gain insights into today’s market trends and analyses courtesy of Rollie Vincent’s monthly Market Indicators section and an interview with Par Avion’s Janine Iannarelli.

For the Flight Department, Ken Elliott takes a closer look at Performance Based Navigation, while we continue our series on International Business Aviation Operations, this month looking at Cuba. Flight Department Managers will find Mario Pierobon’s tips on improving the safety of the flight department and Jodie Brown’s discussion of Decision Making Methods useful. Aviation Director Andre Fodor meanwhile ponders the question of just how much technology is too much…

Advice is offered by LBAS’ Marek Rinke and OHS’ Dennis Neumann on how to get the most out of a cabin refurbishment project, while Mike Chase profiles the Cessna Citation M2 in this month’s Comparative Analysis. Light & Entry Level Jets are further featured in this month’s aircraft specifications and values sections.

Within the Boardroom section, Rani Singh asks Jet Exchange’s Ian Austin when chartering a jet is right for a jet owner, and David Wyndham unpacks the complex area of sourcing the best Business Aviation consultant. Jeremy Cox highlights the importance of USPAP in relation to aircraft appraisal and Chris Younger begins a series on importing a foreign-registered jet into the US. Completing a packed BACE2016 edition, Stuart Hope warns aircraft owners to ‘lend’ their wings to ‘friends’ only with their eyes wide open in terms of insurance risk, and Rod Simpson gives a historical profile of Dassault.

Do feel free to visit us at BACE2016 in Orlando (Booth #4817) And tell us how we can improve our service to you.

BIZAV INTELLIGENCE T MARKET INDICATORS

Business Aviation Market Summary An expression widely attributed to the Chinese is “may you live in interesting times”, notes Rolland Vincent, Editor, Market Indicators. Well, November 2016 will have no shortage of interesting moments, beginning with the BACE2016 convention in Orlando. xpected to attract some 27,000 participants, BACE2016 is easily the largest single gathering of Business Aviation leaders in the industry. This will be followed almost immediately by the US Presidential election on Tuesday, November 8, an election that could have profound impacts on the geo-political landscape and, by association, on Business Aviation.

Sprinkle in Brexit tensions, BRIC crumbling, oil price gyrations, migrant crises, commodity price and emerging market weaknesses, and all is far from well in the environment that Business Aviation operates within.

Results from the recently completed Q3 2016 JETNET iQ Survey, completed in September 2016 with more than 500 respondents from 63 countries, reflect a deterioration in market sentiment amongst owners and operators of fixed-wing turbinepowered business aircraft. Overall, about 40% of owners/operators are feeling optimistic about where the Business Aviation industry is in the current business cycle, led by respondents in North America (US & Canada), and Europe.

Market sentiment is weakest in Asia Pacific, Africa, Middle East and Russia (the so-called “Rest of World” region), where pessimists outnumber optimists by almost 3-to-1, a dramatic shift in just the last few quarters. US-based business aircraft salesmen

E

have found that they can, for the most part, keep their passports locked up in the safe for the time being as they focus on nearterm opportunities State-side.

Waning confidence among Large Jet owners/operators is one of the most significant changes that has been introduced into the market, especially in the last three quarters). Market sentiment amongst Large Jet owners/operators (defined as aircraft in the Challenger 605/Falcon 2000 families and larger) has sharply lowered since the beginning of 2016.

‘Robust’ Markets

The US and Europe, along with China and Mexico, appear to be the most robust aircraft sales markets today, although ‘robust’ may be quite a misnomer when viewed in comparison to sales achieved in these same geographies in recent years.

Lowered expectations for economic growth as measured by changes in real (inflation-adjusted) GDP have dampened aircraft buyer enthusiasm at the same time as owners have been sharply hit by rapidly declining aircraft residual values.

These have widened the gap that prospective buyers/sellers need to close to facilitate aircraft trades, where a good chunk of the currency has traditionally been locked in the value of the used (trade-in) aircraft. With residual values falling at rates of more than

10% per year across a variety of models, many current owners (as if they needed another reason) are not surprisingly sitting on the side-lines and continuing to operate (and often upgrade) their current aircraft.

While this should be relatively good news for Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) providers and other STC owners that offer product upgrade and enhancement services, the fact is that price competition is intense for the business that does materialize.

Although no one seems to like to mention the ‘D’ word, it seems very clear to us that the Business Aviation industry has collectively and inadvertently slipped into a pattern of deflationary pricing, an unsettling condition in which prices have yet to find a floor. The glut of new production and pre-owned inventory is an industry-wide phenomenon that is like a falling tide that lowers all boats.

Q3 2016 JETNET iQ Survey: Market Optimism (By Aircraft Category)

Getting to the Root

So, what is at the root of declining aircraft residual values in the first five years of aircraft ownership? Respondents to the Q3 2016 JETNET iQ Survey believe that a variety of factors are in play. Most importantly, they point to slowdowns in the economy and changes in fortune of individual businesses, which together are believed to account for about 25% of the decline.

Another 25% of the decline is perceived to be due to the plethora of aircraft models that are available ‘For Sale’, as well as OEM over-production and deep discounting policies to avoid whitetails (unsold finished goods inventory).

Other factors at play include aging and technologically-outdated aircraft, a glut of late-model pre-owned inventory (including highly-utilized former fractional aircraft), and price pressures to move unsold aircraft as the 180-day limit for like-kind exchanges nears.

Oversupplied markets, soft underlying macroeconomic fundamentals, geopolitical tensions in (who wudda thunk?) the United States and the United Kingdom… yes, these truly are “interesting times” for the Business Aviation industry.

With more to come. As the good captain often says, it is wise to keep your seatbelts fastened at all times when seated, and sometimes it appears even when you are standing!  MI www.rollandvincent.com Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

BIZAV INTELLIGENCE T MARKET INDICATORS

BizAv Activity Europe

Jetcraft 2nd Annual BizAv Forecast Ongoing challenges are expected in emerging markets, with continued North American dominance, according to Jetcraft’s second annual Business Aviation market forecast. Gulfstream is projected to top OEM revenues with Pratt & Whitney Canada taking top spot for engine OEMs… Jetcraft’s second annual Business Aviation market forecast calls for 7,879 unit deliveries representing $248bn in revenues (based on 2015 pricing) to be realized over the next 10 years. The impact of macroeconomic trends are also taken into account, such as the impact of a slowdown in wealth creation, the migration of ultra-high net worth individuals (UHNWIs) from emerging market economies and the fluctuation of oil prices upon Business Aviation throughout the coming decade.

Overall, this year’s predictions are lower than last year’s report in terms of deliveries and revenues. Yet, despite challenges, there are bright spots on the horizon led chiefly by continued growth of the North American market.

“Last year, we highlighted the unpredictability of our industry since 2008. The impact of global events during the past 12 months have certainly continued this trend,” said Jetcraft’s Chairman Jahid Fazal-Karim.

2021: A Peak Year

This year Jetcraft predicts a marked decrease of 10% in unit deliveries and 9% in revenues from last year. This is largely due to the continued waning influence of emerging market economies as consumers of Business Aviation.

The forecast sees a muted business cycle recovery peaking in 2021, with

delivery of 932 units representing $29.4bn in revenues, before beginning a three-year drop as part of a softer downturn. The projected downturn, however, will be less severe as compared to last year’s forecast.

Key Forecast Findings

• At 30.6%, Gulfstream will secure the highest revenue market share over the forecast period primarily as a result of extending its family of large aircraft.

• Cessna will regain market leadership in unit deliveries securing 24.4% of all new aircraft deliveries over the forecast horizon.

• Pratt & Whitney Canada will replace Rolls-Royce as the market share leader among engine OEMs. • Honeywell will be the dominant player among avionics OEMs securing a 45% revenue market share.

• As a new entrant, HondaJet will provide an incremental contribution to deliveries in the very light jet segment, as its delays in securing certification have led to customer back-up.

Effects of the Used Markets?

While used business aircraft inventory is lower than the historical average level of 13%, there is little evidence of an increase in residual values for 5-year old aircraft (a key benchmark due to the typical ownership period in North America). This has led to lags in purchasing and a slowing of the overall market.

Despite its predicted hurdles, the Jetcraft forecast remains optimistic toward the future of Business Aviation.

MI www.jetcraft.com/knowledge/

The latest WINGX Advance monthly BizAv monitor indicates there were 76,983 Business Aviation departures in Europe in September, representing a 1.4% Year-over-Year (YOY) growth in activity.

Specifically, growth was recorded in business jet activity with flights up 4% YOY, offsetting declines in turboprop and piston activity. The UK showed the most impressive growth with flights up 5%. On average there were 150 Business Aviation flights a day leaving the UK during September.

The busiest country in September was France, generating 19% of all European departures. Although the YOY trend in France was flat, the Year-to-Date (YTD) trend went up 3%, resulting in an additional 350 flights per month in 2016.

“September completed a positive Q3, adding to the growth in Q2 and offsetting the bad start to the year so that overall trend is now in line with 2015,” summarized Richard Koe, Managing Director, WINGX. “September was unusually strong, especially for business jet charters. The UK and Spain got a big share of the growth with the tourist season extended by the long, late summer.

“Specifically, VLJ charters played a big role in supporting this demand.

Aggregate activity was also boosted by new deliveries into super midsize fleets.”

On the downside, the major markets in decline this month were Germany and Switzerland. Flights within Germany were down -8%. Overall, flight activity within Western Europe was flat this month, as opposed to some growth coming in from Southern and Eastern Europe (although countries such as Turkey and Russia continued to decline).

Private Flying To Pick Up in 2017

Business Jet Traveler recently released results from its 2016 Readers’ Choice Survey, which indicated that 37% of those who fly privately expect to increase their time in the air in the next year and another 54% expect to fly at least as much.

Gulfstream Model Range Price Lowdown

G150

Within the Hagerty Q3 2016 Gulfstream Quarterly Market Update, James Hagerty notes there is so much utility value in the used business jet market that it should be attracting more first-time buyers and upgrade opportunities than ever before…

Like many other capital assets in the Great Recession, values of coveted business jets reverted to correction territory following an overheated used aircraft sales market. A used GV that sold for $45m in 2008 is today worth $12m. Today’s acquisition prices offer unprecedented utility-value for first-time and upgrade buyers. The increased utility is attracting the “smart-money” buyers who are engaging opportunities to take advantage of historically high returns from historically low prices.

Using its Gulfstream expertise, Hagerty Jet Group has applied its market research and analysis to demonstrate what aircraft are available to buyers with $6m, $12m and $18m budgets. Think of “What You Can Buy” in terms of price for achieving operational objectives and return-on-utility. (All prices assume fleet-average time aircraft with typical equipment and interiors and enrolment on engine programs.)

What Can I Buy for $6m?

2009-2010 Model G150 (Original Sale Price New - $12m): Offering a 2,900nm range, there have been 120 G150s built since 2007.

The interior can accommodate up to seven passengers, and the cabin has a dropped floor to offer 5.75 ft height. The G150’s value comes from its operating costs (Variable Operating Cost around $1,900 per hour.

The G150’s main competitors include the Lear 60XR and the Hawker 900XP which are no longer in production. Gulfstream announced in September that the last G150 has been ordered and will deliver mid-2017.

G200

GIV-SP 28

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

2008 Model G200 (Original Sale Price New - $19m): Built between 2000 and 2011 the G200 fleet comprises nearly 250 units. Offering a range of 3,200nm, its stand-up cabin (6.2ft) can accommodate 810 passengers comfortably. Although considerably shorter than traditional Gulfstreams the G200 fuselage is closely comparable in diameter to the larger models, but has a drop down floor and a baggage compartment accessed externally.

The Variable Operating Cost for the G200 is around $2,500 per hour. The key value in the G200 comes from its larger cabin and better range over the G150, but it has been criticized for its lack of short field performance.

2000 Model GIV-SP (Original Sale Price New - $30m): Built between 1986 and 2003, the GIV-SP has been one of Gulfstream’s most reliable and capable aircraft, offering a transatlantic range of 4,200nm. The three-zone cabin can accommodate up to 16 passengers with forward and aft galley configurations.

Variable Operating Costs are estimated at $3,900 per hour. The value in the GIV-SP is the cabin and performance capability of the aircraft, while the operating costs and maintenance are the hardest pills to swallow for most potential buyers coming out of smaller airplanes like Learjets or Citations. www.AVBUYER.com

Aircraft Index see Page 193

MarketIndicators Nov16.qxp_Layout 1 18/10/2016 13:01 Page 5

What Can I Buy for $12m?

2007 Model G450 (Original Sale Price New - $35m): The G450 is a current production aircraft that distinguishes itself from the previous GIV models with upgraded EASy avionics found in the G650 and G550. Gulfstream has delivered 350 of these aircraft since 2003. Lighter avionics and Digital Engine Controls increase the range to 4,400nm.

The three-zone cabin accommodates up to 16 passengers with forward and aft galley configuration options. Variable Operating Costs are similar to the older GIV-SP at $3,700 per hour. The G450 is a very capable aircraft with transatlantic range and comfort.

2002 Model GV (Original Sale Price New - $40m): There were nearly 200 GVs, built between 1997 and 2002, with a range of 6,500nm. The GV still boasts longer range than any of its competitors. The GV does everything a GIV-SP can do, but better. It flies farther, faster, higher and more efficiently. Variable Operating Costs are slightly higher on the GV at $4,200 per hour which is mostly attributable to costly engine maintenance.

The three-zone cabin in a GV can accommodate up to 18 passengers plus an optional crew rest area.

The GV presents a tremendous utility value in today’s market, particularly for its versatility and cabin. The GV does everything better than any other aircraft in the $12m and below category.

Furthermore, the GV has already taken most of its depreciation and prices are first to flatten in today’s market with less than 4% of the fleet ‘for sale’.

GV

What Can I Buy for $18m?

2003 Model G550 (Original Sale Price New - $44m): For the first time in history, G550 prices have dropped below $20m. A current production aircraft, a used G550 offers tremendous capability with current generation technology, and there are more than 550 aircraft in the fleet since deliveries began in 2003. The airframe and engines haven’t changed in 14 years apart from cabin interior improvements.

The G550 is equipped with the current generation EASy avionics which allows for easier integration of upcoming avionics requirements. Aerodynamic improvements and lighter avionics give the G550 an additional 250nm range over the GV, in turn lowering the Variable Operating Costs to $3,800 per hour.

G550

2011 Model G450 (Original Sale Price New - $35m): Since the G450 has lost nearly 50% of its value in less than 5 years, a lightly used G450 offers a lot of value for a buyer who wants a newer airframe but doesn’t want to pay new pricing. A used G450 costs even less than a new G280 which has considerably less range and cabin.

General Dynamics has noted low demand for the G450 and has subsequently reduced production and lowered pricing to attract buyers to this model.

US Market ‘Attractive’ for Finance

New research from Florida-based Global Jet Capital reveals 90% of Business Aviation professionals from around the world believe the US market is currently attractive for finance companies, with 59% saying it’s ‘very attractive’…

Just 4% of Business Aviation professionals globally describe the US market as ‘unattractive’, according to Global Jet Capital’s research. Some 200 industry professionals were interviewed, and the majority anticipate the US as well as the Canadian market will become even more appealing to Business Aviation finance companies over the next three years.

While almost six out of ten (59%) believe this about the US market, and only 5% think it will become less attractive, the corresponding figures for the Canadian Business Aviation market are 42% and 7% respectively.

Dave Labrozzi, COO, Global Jet Capital observed, “A number of industry reports predict a long-term increase in the number of new business jet deliveries and our findings clearly reflect this optimism.”

Global Jet Capital’s research revealed 51% of Business Aviation professionals expect financing the purchase of medium sized jets to become more attractive compared to 13% who think it will become less appealing, and the corresponding figures for large jets are 48% and 18%.

UBS Shows Improving Bizjet Market…

Improvements in the small-cabin jet market drove up the latest

UBS Business Jet Market Index, the analyst firm said…

The UBS Business Jet Market index (based on industry surveys) measures perceptions of market conditions on a scale of 0 to 100, with the higher values reflecting improving conditions. The new index reached 34, a 10% jump from the previous survey and up from the low of 29 in May. The light business jet market showed the greatest improvement, up 34% from the previous survey. The large-cabin jet segment also improved, by 3%, but with an index of 28 it still trails the midsize jet index of 31 (that ranking for midsize jets declined by 5%).

Fueling the improved index was a strengthening of consumer interest (+11%), pricing (+14%) and willingness of dealers to increase inventory (+9%). The index indicated ongoing concerns about the weakness in emerging markets, with large-cabin business jets expected to be the most affected.

In-Service Aircraft Values & Maintenance Condition Values for tracked business aircraft models managed to post a second consecutive record low monthly figure during September, dropping an additional 1.0% to $5.14m, notes Asset Insight, Inc….

Only Small Jets gained ground, recording a 1.3% monthly increase. Large Jets decreased -1.9% to a 12-month low figure; Medium Jet prices fell -0.4% to post a new record low, and Turboprops lost -1.4%. All values were down in Q3 vs.

Q2, with average Ask Prices decreasing -7.8%. Large Jets were off by -9.5%, Medium Jets by -8.5%, Small Jets down -0.8%, and Turboprops off by -1.8%.

Inventory Fleet Maintenance Condition

Overall Asset Quality remained ‘Excellent’, but Maintenance Exposure registered its highest/worst figure for the past twelve months. Specifically: •

•

The Asset Insight Quality Rating improved to 5.361 from last month’s 5.346, on Asset Insight’s scale of -2.5 to 10.

However, the improvement still left the inventory fleet’s Quality Rating a bit below last quarter’s figure of 5.377.

Maintenance Exposure (an aircraft’s accumulated/ embedded maintenance expense) worsened to $1.475m, to post a 12-month high/worst figure and an increase of 1.4% since last quarter.

By aircraft sector, the figures were as follows: • Large Jets: ‘Excellent’ asset quality at 5.439 (second-best among the four groups), but 5.7 AI2 basis points worse than last month’s 5.496 figure and down 12.6 AI2 basis points since last quarter. Maintenance Exposure worsened from $3.125m to $3.184m – a 12-month high figure and an increase of 2.8% since last quarter.

• Medium Jets: ‘Excellent’ asset quality at 5.340 (down 2.0 and 1.8 AI2 basis points from last month and for the quarter, respectively) keeping the group in third place among the four sectors; Maintenance Exposure worsened by $13k to $1.287m – a 12-month high figure that was also slightly worse than last quarter’s $1.281m.

• Small Jets: With an ‘Excellent’ asset quality rating, the group earned the top spot for the first time at a rating of 5.475, versus last month’s 5.401 and last quarter’s 5.433; Maintenance Exposure also improved, decreasing $13k to $764k for the month, and by $5k for the quarter.

• Turboprops: ‘Very Good’ asset quality at 5.115 and an improvement over last month’s, and last quarter’s figures of 5.038 and 5.074, respectively. Maintenance Exposure improved to $553k, decreasing by $10k, while remaining virtually unchanged since last quarter.

Maintenance Exposure to Ask Price (ETP) Ratio Asset Insight’s tracked fleet’s ETP Ratio (an aircraft’s Maintenance Exposure divided by its Ask Price) remained unchanged at 54.9%. Unfortunately, that also represents the 12-month high figure and a slight worsening over last quarter’s 54.0% Ratio. Twelve month low Average Ask Price was the primary driver, led by a 12-month low figure for Large

Jets and a record low figure for Medium Jets. Asset Insight considers any ETP Ratio over 40% to represent excessive Exposure in relation to Ask Price, and the tracked fleet’s figure has been above 40% for the past 21 months.

•

•

•

•

Large Jets: Posted the best ETP Ratio among the four groups but, at 40.8%, it was above last quarter’s 38.3% and equaled the sector’s worst Ratio for the past 12 months. Once again Large Jets entered excessive Maintenance Exposure territory. Average Ask Price has dropped 9.5% from last quarter and 16.6% since the start of this year, and Asset Insight’s analytics indicate the downward pricing trend is likely to continue.

Medium Jets: ETP Ratio has now degraded for six consecutive months, increasing to 61.9% from 60.7% and registering the group’s third consecutive worst figure for the past twelve months. Since December, Ask Prices have decreased approximately $560k, or 14.7%, and at $3.25m the sector posted a second consecutive record low figure this month. With Asset Quality running a little above the group’s 12-month average, Asset Insight continues to believe Buyers should have little trouble locating good values.

Small Jets: Although this sector has been consistently posting the highest ETP Ratio, Asset Insight believes Buyers should be able to identify good values for two reasons: - First, the sector’s Asset Quality just posted a 12month peak figure (the highest rating among the four sectors); and - Second, Maintenance Exposure is only slightly above the 12-month average.

While pricing is just below the group’s 12-month high, this only reflects the quality of available assets. Careful analytics should allow Buyers to create good values.

Turboprops: The sector continued to post the secondbest ETP Ratio. At 43.9%, the figure represented an improvement over last quarter’s 46.1% and is slightly better than the sector’s 12-month average. With Ask Price below the group’s 12-month average and Asset Quality above the 12-month average, Asset Insight thinks Buyers and Sellers should be able to find common ground.

Table B

Market Summary

The final three months of each year traditionally represent the largest number of quarterly transactions. Accordingly, Sellers that are considering holding on to their aircraft hoping for a higher price should keep in mind that prices continue to trend downward.

One firm indication is this month’s record low average Ask Price figure, but there are numerous other factors conspiring against a near-term price hike, such as the number of aircraft in the used inventory and the pricing compression created by new aircraft trading values compared to their published list price.

Think carefully about the price you will accept as a Seller. As a Buyer, make certain the bargain you are pursuing does not make you the aircraft’s unintentional final owner. Rest assured that a few of those will be created during this year’s sprint to December 31.

Two Decades of Business Aviation: Ups & Downs - With More to Come…

In the two decades since the launch of AvBuyer, Business Aviation has experienced significant growth, some minor contractions, the Great Recession and - through it all -

attracted thousands of new participants. Dave Higdon walks through 20 years in Business Aviation…

n twenty years, new companies have emerged and old companies faded, but today's business aircraft fleet numbers exceed all past highs while membership in National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) recently surpassed the 11,000 mark – the highest in its nearly 70-year history.

In short, Business Aviation continues to thrive against today’s challenges, and it has done so making some major transitions – to RVSM, to WAAS GPS, and now to ADS-B. Performance-Based Navigation, spacebased global flight tracking and digital text communications are all moving forward.

The Business Aviation community has pushed-back against discriminatory noise restrictions and curfews, defended embattled airports, and fought a running battle against efforts to privatize ATC (along with a parallel effort to change FAA's main funding source from easy and inexpensive excise taxes on fuel, cargo and airline tickets to a user-fee-based system with the costly and burdensome bureaucracy required to support such a system).

Let’s start back in 1996, the year in which World Aircraft Sales Magazine (as AvBuyer was then known) launched on the market...

I

1996

William Jefferson Clinton was in the White House. He had signed product-liability reform, known as the General Aviation Revitalization Act (GARA), in 1994 to help General Aviation expand while trying to improve flying in other ways. No Plane No Gain, the community-wide advocacy program initiated by the National Business Aviation Association and the General Aviation Manufacturers Association in 1993 continued to be the focal point of communications promoting Business Aviation.

One element of this push was the September 1996 release of the report from the White House Commission on Aviation Safety and Security. The final text landed on the President's desk the following February.

The Gore Commission and the National Civil Aviation Review both gave aviation interests heartburn over the prospect of changing how ATC would be funded and managed. Meanwhile, Reduced Vertical Separation Minimums (RVSM) came into use in 1996, with Dassault's Falcon 2000 the first to receive approval out of the factory.

The focus of the 1996 NBAA convention was on new aircraft models and future

growth in Business Aviation. Business aircraft OEMs active at the time included Raytheon Aircraft, which launched development of two new jets employing cutting-edge manufacturing techniques and then-new digital avionics packages: the Hawker Horizon super mid-size jet, and the Premier I light jet.

Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier (and its Learjet division), Cessna, Embraer, Israeli Aircraft Industries, Dassault, Dornier, Gulfstream and Piaggio were all established turbine-aircraft manufacturers. Germany's Dornier; Switzerland's Pilatus; and Brazil's Embraer were up-and-coming contenders within the business-turbine segment.

The Gulfstream GV and Bombardier Global Express opened up a new ultralong-range aircraft segment, while Boeing entered the field announcing plans for what would become Boeing Business Jet. SinoSwearingen was flying a prototype of its FJ44-powered SJ30-2, and the former head of Learjet, Brian Barents, took the helm at a new start-up OEM, Galaxy Aerospace.

1997

NBAA turned 50 and grew under the visionary leadership of President John W. Olcott. A strong economy and bullish stock market drove one of the most-productive periods of economic growth in decades, and deliveries of new business turbine aircraft reflected that economic strength.

New companies continued to embrace business aircraft after recognizing the benefits of a corporate aircraft, attracted by new models such as Learjet's 45, Boeing’s BBJ, and a planned single-engine VisionAir Vantage jet (started by a furniture maker and business aircraft-user from the Southeast US – sadly only the proof-ofconcept would fly).

Although a market study into a supersonic business jet failed to spur Dassault to develop such a machine, the supersonic dream rumbled on and continues to be alive and well today.

1998

According to NBAA's annual report for 1998, research revealed an increase in business aircraft operators exceeding 1,000 in number over the prior three years, confirming the growth trend. Operators responding to the strong economy increased their flying hours even as they added aircraft.

Part of the growth stemmed from the surge in Fractional Ownership programs at



Opposite: In 1996, Gulfstream’s GV (pictured) and Bombardier’s Global Express launched a new ultra-long-range business jet category. New models like the Learjet 45 (top) and a single-engine jet concept – the VisionAir Vantage (middle) – fueled interest in Business Aviation in 1997. Meanwhile, the Supersonic dream (bottom) began, and has continued to grow, today in the form of Aerion’s AS2.

Left: Fractional Ownership (and particularly the activity of Warren Buffet who purchased Executive Jet Aviation) was a hot topic in BizAv in 1998/1999. Meanwhile, a new millennium brought an exciting new jet: the Eclipse 500 (center) would go on to launch the VLJ category.

Following the terrorist atrocities of 9/11 in 2001, aviation security would never be the same again (right).

the time. The existence of Fractional Ownership companies split the community between those who supported the sharedownership arrangement and those who felt these programs infringed on traditional Part 135 charter operators – but without the burden of the 135 certificate.

FAR 91 Sub-part K helped settle some of the debate, and Fractional Programs continued to grow in popularity.

The aircraft OEMs certainly weren't complaining about the Fractional Programs since they had become major customers for everything from the Airbus Corporate Jet and BBJ, right down to CitationJets.

This was also the year that Learjet finally delivered its first Learjet 45, the first all-new design since the original Learjet 23 of 1963.

1999

NBAA's convention in Atlanta feted the association's growth to 6,000 members, while the OEMs tried to keep up with the heated growth in sales brought about by the strong economy.

Talk of a new generation of smaller light jets had owner-pilots eager for their arrival, thanks in part to work by Williams International on a family of jet engines smaller than the FJ44. Not to be left out of the smaller-engine business, Pratt & Whitney Canada launched development of its PW600-series jet engines. Meanwhile, the concept of the single-engine jet remained an unrealized ambition after the decline of VisionAire's Vantage.

Elsewhere, billionaire businessman Warren Buffet demonstrated his faith in Business Aviation by following his purchase of FlightSafety International with the acquisition of Executive Jet Aviation (EJA), the Ohio company that invented the fractional-ownership program a decade

earlier. On the propjet front, Piaggio became a subsidiary of Italian automaker Ferrari and resumed production of the P.180 Avanti – providing the only competition for the Beech King Air line of propjet twins.

2000

As the new millennium dawned, the bubble burst on the Dot-Com boom. Wall Street panicked, but not the OEMs thanks to a record backlog of more than $2.4bn in advance orders. Indeed, the industry flourished through the year, with Cessna forecasting continued double-digit growth for the coming years.

Raytheon Aircraft continued to struggle with its Premier I program, but launched a Hawker 450 derivative – meanwhile the Hawker 4000 (formerly Horizon) continued to stumble toward certification.

But new dreams emerged—dreams of a business jet priced under $1 million thanks to Eclipse Aviation and its new Eclipse 500, designed to fly on two Williams International EJ22 powerplants. The company developed its own digitallyintegrated avionics package in-house. The industry dubbed the Eclipse and several ‘me-too’ efforts as Very Light Jets (VLJs).

On the avionics front Honeywell – the merged Allied Signal/Honeywell company – launched its Apex program at the NBAA convention in New Orleans, with products designed to hit all three levels of aviation: Commercial Aviation, Business Aviation and General Aviation aircraft.

2001

Although further delays were experienced

by Raytheon in the certification of the Premier I and Hawker 4000, use of business aircraft remained strong and aircraft sales

solid. In fact, 2001 looked like being another solid year with EBACE taking place for the first time in Geneva that spring.

But all of aviation literally came to a complete halt in the US the morning of September 11, 2001. Nineteen Al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four airliners, flying two into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in lower Manhattan and one into the Pentagon; the fourth was crashed into a Western Pennsylvania field after passengers revolted against their four hijackers.

By noon all of American aviation was grounded, including some outside the country, after security officials and the FAA closed the nation's airspace internationally and domestically. Three days later the FAA began the laborious process of reopening the airspace and admitting US flights previously trapped abroad.

The world of aviation security changed permanently that day. Even the NBAA Convention scheduled for New Orleans had to be postponed until December in the aftermath of the attack.

2002

Business and General Aviation groups continued a lengthy struggle to restore normality to private aviation flights, pushing back against efforts by the then-new Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to force all private aircraft to employ airlinetype security measures. Government officials even suggested that family members of owners and pilots endure security screening – and considered an order requiring armed security agents to fly on all aircraft...and then on all larger aircraft.

This struggle would continue through the next few years with TSA publishing a proposed rule mirroring that one-size-fits-all security apparatus.  continued on page 46

Under the leadership of John W. Olcott (1997-2003, left) and Edward M. Bolen (2004-Present, center) NBAA has seen substantial growth, and Business Aviation has benefitted significantly. The destruction left in the wake of Hurricane Katrina (right) in 2005 caused major upheaval within the US. NBAA’s 2005 Convention needed to be relocated from New Orleans, and rescheduled. Below: The bubble burst on the global economy in 2008, creating a downturn BizAv has yet to stabilize from.

Private Aviation groups all pushed back and eventually sanity prevailed – albeit with new rules for Part 135 operations, background checks for pilots and students, and an ongoing construct of security steps following government attempts (fortunately unsuccessful) to implement outrageous security proposals for General and Business Aviation.

Meanwhile, a new OEM quietly entered the market: Aerion’s goal was to field a supersonic business jet (SSBJ).

2003

Changes swarmed over NBAA, starting with the announcement by association president John W. Olcott that he intended to vacate his post at the end of the year.

The NBAA board formed a five-member panel to search for his replacement, while lauding Olcott for his success in growing membership, convention attendance and Business Aviation advocacy with the association's launch of the No Plane, No Gain program.

His replacement proved a bad fit, and another leadership change would be made within the year.

On the up side, 2003 brought a new Business Aviation trade show to the global stage – this time in Latin America with the launch of LABACE.

association on a revival of programs and membership growth that has continued to this day.

R&D efforts continued to bring new products to the market, with Airbus even marketing its new A380 as a business jet candidate. At least one was sold for that purpose. Meantime, Aerion unveiled its design for the twin-engine SSBJ, the AS2.

After a soft 2002 and 2003 (ripples from the 9/11/2001 attacks), 2004 brought a stronger year for business aircraft sales and use.

2005

Say hello to ABACE – the Asian Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition, another collaboration between NBAA and local Business-Aviation groups in Shanghai. This show would go on to serve its region of the world with the same level of workshops, safety forums and trade-show exhibits as EBACE, LABACE and the US NBAA Convention (BACE).

Meanwhile, legislative efforts that would disadvantage private aviation continued to be a point of contention between the White House, the airlines and groups representing private aviation users and operators.

Thankfully, the efforts failed but would

2004

The replacement for John W. Olcott departed NBAA and in September the membership welcomed a new president named Edward M. Bolen, fresh from the same post at the General Aviation Manufacturers Association.

A “recreational” pilot himself, and with extensive experience working in and for members of Congress, Bolen started the

resurface in later years.

Meanwhile, Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans only a couple of weeks ahead of the 2005 NBAA convention forcing the event back to December – and to Orlando.

2006

In 2006, Raytheon Corporation sold Raytheon Aircraft to a consortium made up of Goldman Sachs and Onex Corporation, the company that bought out Boeing Wichita and eventually spun it off, taking it public as Spirit Aerosystems.

The deal with Goldman Sachs/Onex loaded Raytheon Aircraft with a heavy debt burden against which it struggled when the economy started south in 2007. The Premier I and Hawker 4000 remained active programs but far behind schedule…

2007

The signs of a downturn came slowly and innocuously enough, but they were there nonetheless. Backlogs of pre-owned business jets edged ever higher; asking prices fell; and sales lagged. By year's end the backlog of unsold pre-owned businessturbine aircraft would reach new highs.

Meanwhile, Aerion opened the orderbook for its AS2 SSBJ and quickly landed 50 deposits. Key to its acceptance is its Mach 1.6 top cruising speed where supersonic is allowed, and a fuel-efficient Mach 0.96 cruise speed where supersonic is banned (i.e. Continental US).

2008

The bottom fell out of the US economy just in time to serve as campaign fodder for the two major-party candidates for President of the United States; the stock market fell by two-thirds of its previous high, and unemployment soared while aircraft sales continued on page 48

In 2009, an NPRM for ADS-B (left) was issued. Early in 2010, the FAA published its final rule and the 10-year count-down for operators to comply began. By 2011, the post ‘Great Recession’ industry was focussed more on aircraft upgrades as owners looked to extend the lives of their aircraft.

Avionics upgrades (center) were popular, with flight decks changing from CRT, to LCD, to LED over a mere 15-years since the mid-90s.

Meanwhile, eyes were turning to the burgeoning Chinese economy for hope of a return to a golden era in new business jet sales (right).

tumbled. The US budget, signed into law by outgoing President George W. Bush, breached the $1 trillion deficit mark for the first time, and manufacturing was in a steep decline. The new administration of incoming President Barack Obama faced a national economic crisis many equated to the Great Depression of 1929. The world even gave this recession a name equal to its depth – The Great Recession.

Chairing a Congressional hearing in November, Representative Gary L. Ackerman (D, NY) vilified car executives— and by association all users of business jets—for flying into Washington, DC on their company aircraft. The Business Aviation community experienced a big hit.

Aircraft sales, both new and used, plunged while the lenders all-but-left the used business-turbine aircraft market for the next three years.

2009

Welcome back, No Plane, No Gain, to the forefront of promoting the advantages and contributions of Business Aviation specifically, and General Aviation in general.

NBAA’s Ed Bolen and Pete Bolen, his GAMA successor, revived the program to become an ongoing centerpiece of the two groups’ work supporting the ownership and use of business aircraft.

New models of aircraft continued to flow through the pipeline, albeit at a reduced rate due to the Great Recession, and in spite of difficulty financing both new and used aircraft.

Meanwhile, a years-old effort by the FAA to reinvent how controllers monitor air traffic was the subject of a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that would require the vast majority of aircraft to equip with new surveillance technology called Automatic Dependent Surveillance48

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

Broadcast, or ADS-B. Comments focused on the lack of direct benefits to operators, while the FAA promised that indirect benefits would save operators billions through reduced horizontal separation and greater runway efficiency.

2010

The year started in anticipation of the FAA issuing a final rule on ADS-B equipage. In March the FAA published its final rule, establishing a near 10-year period for operators to comply with the newequipment requirements.

The core of the ADS-B Out system depends on navigation equipment on board individual aircraft to determine position, altitude, speed and direction of flight – then broadcasting those data to controllers multiple times per minute thus providing more-frequent and moreaccurate data for managing traffic.

Initially, business-turbine operators had few options for meeting the mandate, but that situation changed as new products subsequently entered the market.

2011

Upgrades were the big attractions at NBAA’s 64th annual convention at Las Vegas as aircraft owners continued to look for ways to extend the lives of their existing aircraft in the post-Great Recession world.

Engine upgrades, remanufacturing and cockpit updates drew considerable attention, with Nextant advancing its 400XT conversion of the BeechJet 400A; Blackhawk offering more turboprop upgrades; and Rockwell Collins and Honeywell battling for panel space among the OEMs. In less than 15 years, flight decks had transitioned from Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) www.AVBUYER.com

displays, to Liquid-Crystal Display (LCD) screens, and on to Light-Emitting Diodes (LED), paralleling a similar revolution in home television and computer screens.

2012

In April 2012 Raytheon Aircraft defaulted on interest payments and breached its banking covenants, prompting broad expectations that the story of fabled Beech Aircraft, founded in 1932, would end with a bankruptcy filing.

And so it happened, on May 3 as voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code were filed. An attempted purchase by China's Superior Aviation failed, and on October 18 the company announced plans to proceed with the bankruptcy process.

It later announced it was exiting the business jet market and would stop jet production. Only a handful of Hawker 4000s were produced along with a slightly larger number of Premier IAs.

2013

A new company returned from the ashes of the Raytheon Aircraft bankruptcy when the manufacturer exited bankruptcy on Feb. 19, 2013, with a return of its ancestral Beech name: Beechcraft Corporation. Once again the legendary OEM was on its own.

Meanwhile, the new owners of the Eclipse 500 VLJ resumed production of an upgraded model, the Eclipse 550, while offering options to upgrade existing 500 models.

2014

The year started off with a transaction pending – the attempt to purchase Beechcraft Corporation by Textron, already the parent of Cessna Aircraft, Bell Helicopter, engine maker Textron Aircraft Index see Page 193

AVBUYER LOOKBACK16.qxp_Finance 19/10/2016 14:24 Page 6

Beechcraft and Cessna were brought under one roof (left) when Textron acquired Beechcraft in 2014. In 2015, a new destination became viable for US BizAv operators as the Obama Administration sought to restore diplomatic relations with Cuba (center). Meanwhile, 2016 is expected to be the year Cirrus succeeds with its SF50 where VisionAir failed almost 20 years earlier. Cirrus should receive final certification for the first single-engine business jet (right) by year-end.

Lycoming, and McCauley Propellers. In March, the deal closed with Beechcraft becoming a product line once again, but now as part of Textron Aviation.

Airbus, meanwhile, entered into a partnership with Aerion to advance development of the AS2 SSBJ.

2015

Avionics installers, Aircraft Electronics Association (AEA) and the FAA all pushed reminders that the community was past the halfway point to the ADS-B Out mandate deadline, but barely 15 percent of the GA fleet was so equipped.

On the industry front a new entity, One Aviation, brought together Eclipse and an in-development turboprop, the Kestrel 350, under a single banner while another relatively new jet maker, Honda Aircraft, won certification of its new light jet, powered by two Honda/GE HF120 engines. Honda invested more than 20

years in the project, starting with engine studies, airframe design, engine certification and finally, type approval.

And a new destination opened up for direct flights thanks to efforts of the Obama Administration to restore diplomatic relations with Cuba. Private and commercial flights were thus allowed – but only under strictly enforced conditions, none of them for direct business or tourism (see our International Business Aviation Operations feature about flying to Cuba on p78 of this month’s edition).

Aerion, meanwhile, continued to progress with its now three-engine SSBJ, landing a firm order for 20 units from Fractional Operator FlexJet…

2016

After years of effort, some stumbles and some redesign work, Cirrus Aircraft made history by certificating the world's first commercially-viable single-engine business

jet, the SF50 Vision. Launched in 2008, the aircraft is expected to receive its final certification in the last quarter of this year. A handful of other efforts to market a jetpowered single started and failed in the same time frame as we’ve covered here.

Looking back at the past 20 years it's hard to argue that today, we inhabit a very different world from two-decades ago.

Ground-based navigation systems are fewer and satellite-based guidance dominates.

It's been a busy 20 years with several new Citation models, new Falcons and Gulfstreams, Learjets and Bombardier Globals and Challengers. OEMs continue to advance the state-of-the-art, while business aircraft sales remain healthy, if not at their strongest.

With several ongoing projects, some aimed at bringing supersonic travel to Business Aviation we look forward to an exciting, vibrant future in this industry. We'll see you there! T

JetBrokers Has advertised in every AvBuyer (previously World Aircraft Sales) magazine issue since it was first published in 1996. At the time, the print-only magazine was JetBrokers choice for reaching a global audience.

Over 20 years, JetBrokers and AvBuyer have evolved to meet the changing needs of the business aviation sector. JetBrokers has grown from a two-person sales team based in St. Louis to a global aircraft sales company.

BIZAV INTELLIGENCE T MARKET INSIGHTS

Business Aviation Market Insights Janine K. Iannarelli, Founder, Par Avion Ltd.

Providing a unique glimpse of the Business Aviation market from the perspective of those who buy, sell and operate business aircraft or offer expert advice, this month AvBuyer features the insights of Par Avion’s Janine K. Iannarelli…

E

ntering the Business Aviation community while still in college, Janine Iannarelli has soared to impressive heights in a world that was at the time dominated by male brokers. Today Par Avion, the company she founded, is known internationally as a respected resource for corporations and high-net-worth-individuals seeking to purchase turbine-powered business aircraft. In 20 years, Janine has taken her company far beyond the uniqueness of a femaleled Business Aviation firm.

As one of the first employees of a New Jersey company performing research on business aircraft transactions, Janine displayed her innate talent for customer service as she developed an understanding of Business Aviation. From research she moved to marketing aircraft for a dealership that owned its inventory and conducted business globally.

While quite successful as an employee, she imagined the personal fulfilment that would come with launching her own company, and Par Avion Ltd. was formed in January 1997.

From its inception, Par Avion specialized in the brokerage of pre-owned business jets and avoided the appearance of bias by offering inventoried aircraft. “I wanted my company transactions to be totally transparent,” said Janine in a recent interview with AvBuyer. “If we held inventory, where would our loyalty be…or appear to be? Perception is important. I wanted Par Avion to be focused on representing the best interests of our clients.

“We brought to our business a broader skill set that included strategic planning for a firm’s or individual’s aviation program.

Using my marketing interests and background, we developed an analytic understanding of client needs and expectations,” she continued. “Brokerage of pre-owned business aircraft is unregulated. There is no accreditation, per se. Consequently, we have developed our own approach, and our record speaks for itself.

“Our clients appreciate the high level of personalized service and attention to detail Par Avion delivers, and we respect their desire for privacy. Therefore we do not make public our often high-profile clients. Furthermore, typically our clients are satisfied with their acquisition and are not in the market for a replacement aircraft for at least five years. Thus, we are constantly prospecting for new buyers and aircraft to represent. Ours is a challenging business, and we survive by delivering value consistently.

“The ability to understand and satisfy a client’s needs is paramount. I carefully research my prospective clients and provide them with the assurance that they come first,” said Janine with a modicum of justifiable pride.

Noting that her techniques might be considered traditional 56

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

or ‘old school’, Janine searches business news for general economic data and mentions of interesting situations. With a sharp eye for opportunity, honed by experience, she researches impressive companies and HNW individuals. Next, she sends a personalized letter to prospective clients and introduces Par Avion via snail mail.

“We have a reasonable response to our letters, which doesn’t surprise me,” commented Janine. “I believe that communicating directly with prospects conveys a level of interest on our part. Too often people feel ‘passed over’ in favor of soundbites conveyed by email and text messaging.

“My sweet spot is working with entrepreneurs, globally and here in the US” said Janine. “I like the ethos of a person who started with nothing and created something of merit. I respect their work ethic and identify with them. They sense that empathy and like working with me.”

Market Perspectives

“I see next year as being very flat,” said Janine when asked for her insights about the state of brokerage in Business Aviation.

“The US presidential election has had a damping effect, and uncertainty made it difficult for buyers to enter the market for a business aircraft.

“No single region of the world seems positioned for a rapid recovery. Nor is there some new technology that will create instant change in the GDP. In my career,” she continued, “each rise in economic activity was related to some innovation.”

Janine was quick to add there are positives that, over time, she feels will bode well for Business Aviation. “Airline consolidation has reduced the ability of business leaders to use scheduled air service to meet their demanding routines.

“Entrepreneurs and people on the move appreciate the value of a business aircraft. Unfortunately, for the general public and by extension for some Board Directors, the perception of corporate jets is still cautionary if not negative.

The marketplace is missing the small, mid-cap companies lead by aggressive business men and women who know the value of reaching out to their customers.

“I see some stability emerging and have confidence in the future,” concluded Janine. “We have room for growth, and the enlightened buyer is searching for and finding the ‘best-of-the best’. We at Par Avion are focused at meeting that need for our clients, and we are doing so with proficiency, attention to detail, and customized service.

“Our goal is providing a turnkey transaction where the wishes of our clients are understood and their expectations are realized.” T More from www.paravionltd.com

Understanding PBN

An Evolution of Navigation Operations Performance Based Navigation (PBN) covers a wide diversity of navigation routes

and procedures in today’s airspace. Over the following pages, Ken Elliott explores the evolution and complexity of PBN.

ot that many years ago, aircraft navigated point to point, on fixed routes, where the points literally coincided with ground beacons. These VHF Omni-directional Range (VOR) ground beacons assisted pilots flying the routes between different airports, before transitioning to their instrument or visual landing procedures.

Further aiding the overall navigation picture were Automatic Direction Finder (ADF) ground stations, and Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) ground stations. The common denominator, throughout, was that ground stations ruled and were the only source of en route-navigational

guidance for onboard sensors to acquire.

Even oceanic and trans-continental flights were conducted using ground based Very Low Frequency (VLF) Omega ground stations. The one exception in common use by airlines and longrange corporate aircraft was Inertial Navigation System (INS) navigational equipment, which is very useful over the Poles.

While still using ground based signals, aircraft were able to navigate off the VOR tracks by adding distance (DME) information to the angular VOR data. This arrangement created offset waypoints, existing in virtual 3D locations, if altitude was also added. The ability to fly off tracks was termed Area Navigation, shortened to RNAV. The further ability to fly to an offset waypoint that was also altitude-based became known as vertical navigation, shortened to VNAV. Then, like those dust storms that envelope Phoenix, in blew Global Positioning using earthorbiting satellites. Out went VLF/Omega and not far behind the popularity of ADF, to be followed in our near future by VOR. (Note the FAA announcement in July 2016 to decommission 308 VOR stations).

The lone survivor of the Global Positioning onslaught is DME, and that system will be sticking around for some time to come (more on that 

below). Note also that INS has evolved to a laser-based Inertial Reference System (IRS), operating widely as a navigation sensor, using its True North reference capability.

GPS Is Fundamental

Global Positioning Systems (GPS) are the aircraft sensors used to receive GPS satellite information. But GPS, in reality, is only part of the picture for an aircraft usage. It provides one of several inputs to the Flight Management System (FMS), the heart of an aircraftâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s navigation capability.

Other sensor inputs are DME and IRS. Both GPS and FMS are often installed as dual configuration, with a number of jets having a third backup system. Understanding the FMS concept as a summed system navigator is important to understanding the later developments of RNAV. Global Positioning, along with other sensors, have allowed the RNAV waypoint (and offset waypoint) concept to blossom, significantly altering the worldwide airspace flight path landscape. So, knowing that RNAV is a means of navigating off legacy routes, it is intuitive to deduce that by ensuring accuracy and signal reliability, aircraft may manage their own tracks and fly closer together in congested air space.

Monitoring Adds Capability

Enter PBN, the concept of RNAV with the added ability to

Figure 3: Accommodating Existing & Future PBN Designations

constantly monitor and alert, so that crews can, in real time, safely fly the routes they select, irrespective of traffic density. It is a bit like the extra concentration required for driving around a big city during rush hour. The addition of monitoring and alerting amounts to Require Navigation Performance (RNP).

In effect, we have been using different forms of GPS monitoring and alerting for a long time, using tools like Random Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM). The PBN concept is the ability of an FMS to navigate within certain distance and altitude constraints, using GPS as one of its sensor inputs. Reduced Vertical Separation Monitoring (RVSM) further assists with an en route maintenance of altitude.

PBN partitions the navigation, based on performance criteria. The number in the designation (see Table B) is the brief maximum deviation in nautical mile distance permitted on either side of the required track. En route specifications allow higher deviation numbers, because they are over longer distances and therefore less critical.

Table B (above) sets out the different specifications against the phases of flight, showing that there is at least one PBN designation for each flight phase. Designations, as different specifications for RNP, will evolve. Expect to see changes within the next five years to accommodate the move toward time-based operations. Figure 3 (below, left) alludes to this for RNP, with its reference to 4D navigation.

Staying On Track

PBN, as RNP, keeps aircraft on track by both monitoring the actual performance along the track and alerting the crew when certain allowable tolerances are exceeded. Firstly, the aircraft is monitored for its ability to remain within a parallelogram (when distance is included) for a given percentage of the time.

Note that while a non-PBN navigation error is angular based, PBN navigation is lateral-offset and distance based.

For both RNAV and RNP there is a Total System Error (TSE), which is computed and provided as a monitored percentage.

As an example, the permitted error is demonstrated in Figure 5 (bottom, left) for RNAV 1 and Figure 6 (bottom, right) for RNP 1. The TSE, in relation to the desired track or path, is made up of three different calculations: â&#x20AC;˘ Path Definition Error (PDE), providing the defined path. â&#x20AC;˘ Flight Technical Error (FTE), providing the estimated position. â&#x20AC;˘ Navigation System Error (NSE), providing the true position.

RNP AR is an outlier, because the AR stands for Approval Required. This is an indication that both the aircraft and crew require special approval, beyond the procedure capability Figure 5: An example of RNAV Tracking (an ability to stay within the prescribed distance from the track for a given period of time)

itselfâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;overall a much stricter guidance. Guidance is crucial to operations as well as airworthiness. For operations, the FAA uses Advisory Circulars, designated under series 90, as opposed to series 20 for airworthiness. Each individual operator will need to follow the guidance and conform to an Operational Specification (OPSPEC) and a Management Specification (MSPEC). Before flying the different RNAV/PBN procedures, the operator will require a Letter of Authorization from their flight standards airworthiness branch.

Reducing Risk

As mentioned above, the one legacy ground-based technology still in wide use and planned to continue is DME. As it happens DME is highly accurate, and dual DME provides for Theta-Theta navigation, where Rho was used for VOR. When blended with the GPS, DME can be very useful for integrity and overall accuracy of signal. IRS, providing attitude and position, adds further integrity to the mix.

Reducing risk of accuracy errors is one thing, but reducing the risk for satellite interference is quite another. For this reason, DME stations are being retained to ensure a reliable terrestrial navigation system way beyond 2020. There are Figure 6: An Example of RNP Track Monitoring with the Added Confidence Layer, Real Time Monitoring & Alerting to the Crew

means to improve and enhance the DME station, making DME a truly modern technology that is sufficiently adequate to back up satellite based navigation.

DME will also get you close in for ILS approaches, while the development of new Enhanced Flight Vision Systems (perhaps with blended IRS), along with a new rule, will offer a good back up where ILS is not present.

Authorization to Use PBN Procedures

In March 2016 the FAA bundled the PBN approval processes, addressing the different types of procedures. For this the FAA issued AC 90-105A as advisory guidance for operators to follow. While including guidance for flying RNAV (GPS) approaches, it includes radio-to-fix (RF) Legs. RNP-AR procedures that also include RF Legs are covered separately in AC 90-101A (Change 1). AC 90-105A covers a wide range of possible procedures such as: • • • • • • • • •

Required Navigation Performance Approach (RNP APCH) procedures; Barometric vertical navigation (Baro-VNAV); RNP 1 (terminal) operations; RNP 0.3 (rotorcraft) operations; RNP 2 domestic, offshore, oceanic and remote continental operations; RNP 4 oceanic and remote continental operations; RNP 10 (Area Navigation (RNAV) 10) oceanic and remote continental operations; Advanced Required Navigation Performance (A-RNP); and Additional Capabilities.

Being a very useful tool for corporate flight departments, the guidance covers more than just RNP procedures operated

in the United States. It also applies to oceanic and remote continental airspace, and in foreign countries that adopt International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards for RNP operations.

AC 90-105A does not cover instrument approaches, such as WAAS-LPV. Approval guidance to fly these approaches is found in AC 90-107. The information provided in the guidance material, along with other references listed, is very comprehensive and allows for many different ways to operate your aircraft, based on its equipage and its ability to monitor and alert the accuracy of flight path following.

Relevant Mandates

Traditionally, in oceanic airspace, the term Minimum Navigation Performance Specification (MNPS) has been used to determine the ability of an aircraft to remain on its assigned track. Since 2015, for those transiting through the North Atlantic Tracks (NAT) airspace, it has been a requirement to be approved for RNP 10 and 4 operations. As a consequence, the term PBN is now applied to determine these newer NAT requirements.

These requirements have allowed reduced separation along the NAT tracks, such that on November 10, 2016 the minimum lateral separation between aircraft will be reduced to 25nm for the entire organized track system between FL350 and FL390 inclusive.

For legacy operators allowed to continue using the existing MNPS approval, there will be a need to transition to PBN approvals (RNP 10 and 4) before January 30, 2020. Note that this is during a busy mandate season, when ADS-B Out is already required in lots of places. For ICAO NAT region, FANS 1/A, CPDLC and ADS-C will be required for operations at, or above, FL290.  Continued on page 70

Summary

PBN operations are performancebased and allow operators to select the level of performance that best conforms to their aircraft and its equipage.

At any one airport there are several transitional approach options, with means to tie into legacy and new instrument approaches.

Existing and recent comprehensive guidance is available to flight crews, enabling them to follow the qualification and approval process. For US operators, for example: • • • •

FAA AC 90-101A Change 1 for RNP-AR; FAA AC 90-105A for RNP/RNAV and Baro-VNAV; FAA AC 90-107 for Instrument LPV; FAA AC 90-108 for RNAV on traditional routes and procedures.

Throughout the world, aircraft navigation is being transformed by PBN, allowing reduced separation, simultaneous runway operations, continuous descent profiles, and standardized procedures and approvals.

As we move toward the 4D navigation model, where time at a 3D point is the baseline, the transition will be less complex with PBN in place. Managing all the different levels of aircraft performance and operational approvals is tough for Air Traffic Control and will be even tougher in 4D airspace.

PBN provides a mechanism that reduces that impact, by setting the performance requirements, including options, for each route, STAR/transition, approach and SID/departure. T

Figure 7: Four useful diagrams, courtesy of ICAO, demonstrate one clear advantage of PBN - more direct routing and procedures. The top two diagrams portray ‘en route’, and the bottom two ‘approach’

Tips to Maximize a Cabin Refurbishment Project What Aircraft Owners Should Consider to get the Most from Refurbishment.

Every aircraft owner eventually needs to consider a cabin refurbishment. It’s an

involved, often highly-personalized process - but what are the governing principles for a successful outcome and how can you really maximize the downtime? LBAS’ Marek Rinke & OHS Aviation Services’ Dennis Neumann offer perspectives…

here are so many options available to the owner of a business aircraft seeking a cabin refurbishment. With hundreds – if not thousands – of colors, textures, layouts and products to choose from there are literally millions of possible permutations for the look and feel of a newly-refurbished cabin. Each and every cabin refurbishment project is essentially bespoke.

From all of the options available, an aircraft

owner could be forgiven for believing that literally anything is possible as they seek an MRO center that can bring their dreams into reality. Despite the plethora of choice, however, an owner must be prepared to work with the facility they select to understand the finer details of the project, and realize that compromise may be necessary.

They should also work closely with the facility regarding any other maintenance work they will need if they are to make the best use of the

Dennis Neumann is Chief Commercial Officer at OHS Aviation Services, boasting more than a decade in Business Aviation & aircraft refurbishment with Jet Aviation Basel, Lufthansa Bombardier Aviation Services (LBAS) and Altenrhein Aviation.

the aircraft. The facility will want to understand the aircraft’s current lay-out and its look and feel (i.e., what materials are installed, and what are the possibilities regarding the use of new materials).

Refurbishment Considerations

downtime. Perhaps an upgrade to the cabin avionics is desired, requiring re-routing of wires or installation of routers (or other components) that can only be accessed with the interior removed?

Without such planning, owners will not only face further, disruptive downtime for their business jets as those projects are undertaken separately, but they risk damaging their new interior when parts of it are removed to gain access as required for the additional modification.

As unique as each cabin refurbishment project is and as varied as maintenance requirements can be, the same basic question remains primary as you funnel them into a single project: what needs to be achieved?

When that answer is defined the chosen MRO center can begin to advise, helping manage the expectations of its client regarding the best materials and solutions for the budget and need, and how to implement the process to produce the best results.

Once the aircraft owner has selected the facility that will manage the project, the chosen shop should seek to undertake a detailed cabin inspection to establish more about the status of Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

To assess what type of refurbishment will be possible, the service provider needs to consider weight factors, seat design and general cabin structure, all of which could impact the types and quantities of materials used in the project going forwards.

Indeed, having established all of the possibilities and challenges relating to the cabin and matched these against the budget, available downtime and various other wishes of the aircraft owner, the shop can propose a realistic selection of products, materials for wall coverings (sidewalls and headliner), PSU, leather, wood veneer, carpets, stones, seatbelts, fabrics and accessories (china, crystal, tableware, pillows, etc.).

OHS Aviation Services, for example, helps its clients with their decision-making by offering an online cabin configurator tool, giving a visual first impression of different material combinations available to them. Customer renderings of the materials that will be used are provided so that the aircraft owner knows exactly what his or her aircraft interior will look like. Thus OHS provides realistic expectations of the end-result from the outset of the project.

“...the same basic question remains primary as you funnel them into a single project: what needs to be achieved?”

Maintenance: More than Meets the Eye…

There is often more to planning the cabin refurbishment than the visible, tactile elements.

Fabrics, colors and textures may be a central focus of a finished cabin, but that is no reason to neglect electronics that enhance the flying experience of the cabin occupants.

Increasingly, passengers expect to be able to use their Personal Electronic Devices (iPhones/laptops, etc.) to control the cabin environment, lighting, in-flight entertainment and  email/internet/telephone. www.AVBUYER.com

Moreover, the time to remedy that non-functioning light in the cabin closet is during refurbishment, as access to the wiring behind the paneling becomes accessible. If your aircraft doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deliver on passenger expectations or is non-functioning in some way, this occasion is the best opportunity to incorporate it into the project planning process.

Often modifications to in-flight entertainment systems (for example Satcom, wireless routers and power supply) are combined with cabin seating and furnishings, or galley remodeling. Thus the service facility you choose will need to be able to demonstrate it can offer services for a complete range of design changes and repairs for aerodynamics, avionics, electronics, flight, structural and interior work.

The service facility will also need access to engineering information from the OEM and have approvals for minor and major changes in accordance with the relevant aviation authority. Be sure to check ahead of time.

Time & Compromise

Some owners may be surprised to find their cabin options reduced significantly once the project moves forward, and this situation can be dictated by a number of factors. The amount of downtime available to undertake the project will be central to an owner maximizing their options.

For example, how will the delivery times required for certain materials fall into the available timeframe? Is there a requirement to have a product or some re-wiring certified for safety purposes?

A refurbishment/ maintenance project organized less than three months before the required completion date will be significantly limited in terms of options available since on-stock materials tend to be rare and certification times can be lengthy. The more costly, customized selections require additional time for burn tests and certificates to be completed and issued so that they can be legally installed in the aircraft.

For an aircraft owner to maximize the available options, the top MROs recommend allowing several months before the refurbishment/maintenance project needs to be completed. To help plan well ahead of time, aircraft owners should specify when a major maintenance event is next due for the aircraft and correlate accordingly.

As an example, aircraft owners commonly arrange complete cabin refurbishments to coincide with a significant event such as a 96-month inspection where the downtime offers more time for the all-important refurb project without the need to incur additional downtime on a separate occasion.

In summary, the refurbishment and/or maintenance of the aircraft cabin is a very significant event for the owner and should be handled by experienced specialists knowledgeable in the aircraft type and model.

Answering the one, central question of what is to be achieved by the project, and allowing plenty of time to achieve it will help ensure a satisfied aircraft owner flies away from the MRO center in a fully-functioning, bespoke cabin. T More information from www.lbas.de or www.ohs.aero 76

International Business Aviation Operations (Part 7)

Going International In Cuba Cuba holds challenges as well as opportunities for US business aircraft operators seeking entry into the country that for decades was off limits.

As part of his look at Air Traffic Control and Airspace Management globally, Dave Higdon examines issues of access. rom the air Cuba is beautiful: a lush, green tropical island that is the largest landmass between the Florida Straits, the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. Commercial and private flights from the US long ago began to enjoy the privilege of overflying Cuba en route to Mexico, Central and South America, the Cayman Islands and Jamaica.

But they were not allowed to land there.

Direct contact ended when the US imposed its now 56-year-old embargo during the waning years of the Eisenhower Administration, shortly after Fidel Castro’s revolutionary army overthrew the government of Fulgencio Batista.

Officially, the embargo remains in effect today.

But thanks to executive action by the US President following lengthy negotiations with Cuban officials, Americans may once again fly directly between a few US airports and Havana, Cuba.

Unlike situations in many of the other nations we've profiled for international travel in this series, the bulk of the constraints Americans face in visiting Cuba originate on the US side of the border and are not the produce of ATC or ATM manifestations. Any visit to the island nation must be approved under one of 12 exceptions allowed by President Obama’s executive orders.

But that's progress – and more is expected.

citing their distaste for dealing with Cuba's nearly 60-year-old Communist government of the Castro Brothers, Fidel and Ramon. Business as well as aviation groups point out that this stance ignores the fact that the US long ago opened direct commerce and tourism to other Communist nations, most prominently among them China and, more recently, Vietnam.

Operators experienced in the ease of visiting other Caribbean islands need to prepare for a process laden with bureaucratic hurdles on both sides of the Straits. Aside from equipping with the common-sense stuff most domestic aviators normally fly without (life rafts, personal flotation devices, survival signaling devices) there are constraints, limitations and paperwork to address before you start your engines.

The number of airports approved for departing for and returning from Cuba is limited. Information on them is available from the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Service (www.cbp.gov/travel/us-citizens/know-beforeyou-go/united-states-cuba-travel/approvedus-ports-entry-flights-and-cuba).

By far the closest, most-convenient jumpoff/jump-back point for American operators is another island – Key West, Florida which boasts experienced personnel of the Customs and Border Protection Service. Few American airports are as well-equipped and experienced in inter-island journeys as Key West International Airport (KEYW). And none is closer to Havana.

Dave Higdon has covered all aspects of civil aviation over the past 35 years. Based in Wichita, he’s a renowned journalist, and an active instrument-rated pilot with more than 5,000 flight hours in everything from foot-launched wings to combat jets.

Constraints for Americans Venturing Abroad JetBlue kicked off the first direct commercial service since 1961 in August, and Alaska Airlines starts its daily non-stop on January 5, 2017. These two carriers are among eight scheduled airlines the Obama administration approved for Havana service last summer.

But scheduled air service started after American General and Business Aviation operators began making private flights to the island, successfully navigating atypical restrictions and constraints imposed by both nations – restrictions and complications observers expect to ease and become more routine with time. Full normalization can't begin until the US Congress acts to terminate the embargo.

First Things First

Potential visitors should understand one thing before planning their flight: Half the complexity of visiting Cuba originates on the American side of the Florida Straits because US citizens still face restrictions imposed by their home country's embargo; the rest originate with Cuba's own regulations and restrictions.

So far a majority of Members of the US Congress continue to resist ending or altering the embargo, Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

As explained by the US Department of the Treasury’s website, American citizens are allowed access to Cuba without the prior permission of the US Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) – as long as the visit falls under one of the following 12 approved categories: 1.

2.

Family Visits; Official Business of the US Government, Foreign Governments & Certain Intergovernmental Organizations; 3. Journalistic Activity; 4. Professional Research & Professional Meetings; 5. Educational Activities; 6. Religious Activities; 7. Public Performances, Clinics, Workshops, Athletic (& other competitions) and Exhibitions; 8. Support for the Cuban People; 9. Humanitarian Projects; 10. Activities of Private Foundations, Research or Educational Institutes; 11. Exportation, Importation or Transmission of Information or Information Materials; 12. Certain Export Transactions (that may be considered for authorization under existing regulations and guidelines). www.AVBUYER.com

• Those limitations mean that direct tourist visits remain constrained by the embargo. You cannot tell the US officials you're visiting Cuba to walk the beach or take in the sights. Tourism appears nowhere on the above list.

All but two of the 12 categories require the sponsorship of - and oversight by - a recognized entity. Still, it's possible to go without such sponsorship – as long as you can legitimately state that you plan to visit relatives in Cuba or participate in a religious trip.

Several entities in Florida can serve as your sponsor, among them Premier One Aviation in Miami, which works under the cultural-exchange category.

Detailed preparation is, as always, a must.

Consider the following precautions: •

Transactions outside of routine travel expenditures are still prohibited. The OFAC continues to enforce the Cuban Asset Control Regulations (www.treasury.gov/resourcecenter/sanctions/Programs/Documents/ guidance_cuba_travel.pdf).

The US government requires certain actions, such as a valid passport; a current-year Customs and Border Protection sticker on the aircraft; and registration through the eAPIS system, which involves filing your aircraft information, the names of passengers and their passport numbers; and, of course, your flight details.

General Declaration forms are needed; some experts advise obtaining at least a dozen.

Fortunately, they're easily available on-line.

Check your aircraft insurance to be sure that Cuba is not excluded (you'll want to correct that before departure). If the aircraft is leased or financed, make sure your lessor or financier doesn't restrict you from flying to Cuba.

File for an export license for the aircraft if your plans call for a stay longer than seven days.

For a stay up to seven days, you're OK without that paperwork.

While American visitors may use US credit and debit cards in Cuba, the infrastructure does not yet support them well, leaving good-old cash as the preferred payment method.

US travelers may take as much as $5,000 in cash into Cuba without having to declare it.

Dollars can be exchanged for Cuban Convertible Currency (CUC) at a rate of 1 to 1.

US Customs & Border Protection (CBP) lists the airports authorized to handle customs clearance to/from Cuba. Operations to/from Cuba from other airports of entry in the US must be pre-approved by the CBP. Flights departing/arriving at other locations should be pre-cleared through Customs.

As discussed under air carriers, as of January 2016 pilots are permitted to stay up to seven days in Cuba during a multi-day visit in connection with the transportation of authorized travelers. Additionally, crew members are permitted to engage in travel-related transactions that support the trip.

Other Limitations...

The US and Cuba do not have much in the way of banking connections. Thus the hit on US currency can be large when exchanged for Cuban currency.

Before departing the US, consider converting your US dollars to Canadian dollars or Euros – both of which have a lengthy history in Cuba and cost less to exchange. If possible, do not accept change in Cuba's local currency, the CUP (Cuban Universal Pesos).

Cigar aficionados will like President Obama’s Executive Order. The US allows Americans to return to the States with as much as $100 worth of cigars and/or alcohol products per adult, and up to $400 in total purchases of Cuban hard-goods.

But forget about returning with food products or fresh fruit.

in Washington, DC Information on Cuban Visa requirements is available at: https://cuba.visahq.com/?js_widget_requirements _link. When in Cuba, you can access the assistance of the US State Department through the US embassy in Havana.

Be Prepared to Pay...Big

Flying to and from Cuba is no bargain (although the cigars and rum may be). Required fees add up quickly, as they do at most other nations that fund their aviation operations with user fees. Let's look at what you can expect…

“Flying within Cuba is not something easily done given the nation's bureaucracy.”

be accounted for before departing. For example, Cuba requires the pilot and aircraft to be instrument-rated and equipped – typically not an issue for business aircraft operators. Cuba's instrument-approach plates differ significantly from the standardized plates used by most other nations. Updating avionics databases to cover all of the Americas can help fill in some of the differences.

Jeppesen offers its excellent trip kits for Cuba, which will make many flight-crew members more comfortable. With an updated database you'll be better equipped for navigating to Cuba, with the waypoints and approaches readily available.

Absent specific Cuban data you'll be able to navigate en-route but will have no specifics for airports.

Havana's Jose Marti International Airport (MUHA) is well equipped for instrument approaches, and the Jepps trip kits cover the available options. Flying within Cuba is not something easily done given the nation's bureaucracy. So consider ground transport for any trips away from the Havana area.

How long you stay in Cuba is up to you; there is no limit on the American side except for those noted above for the aircraft. You must, however, comply with the conditions of the Visa required by Cuban authorities before you depart for the island.

Also there's the landing permit Cuba requires you to have before you enter its airspace. You can start that reputedly laborious process with an email to: ppv@iacc.avianet.cu.

As for the Visa from Cuba, that will require a bit of work since Cuba has but one embassy in the US,

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

High landing fees; High handling fees; Customs fees; Fuel (a problem in Cuba right now because of issues with its major petroleum supplier, Argentina).

Don't expect to get squeezed for bribes, say veteran Cuba Business Aviation visitors. The system is straight forward and simple with no hint of bribery solicited. But be prepared to get hit again before departure – and for the prospect that the fees listed may have changed in the days since your arrival.

Piston operators carrying two and three passenger seats report paying nearly $500 for the privilege of visiting MUHA. Operators of jet and propjet aircraft report charges up to the low four-figures.

Being at least conversant in Spanish can help, though it's not necessary for dealing with Cuban air-traffic controllers. Many American pilots found the English skills of Havana Center and the tower controllers at MUHA to be easier to understand than the US controllers of Miami Center, who'll be the ones to hand you off to Havana.

Whether Cuba comes around and adopts a US-style excise-tax based system to fund its aviation infrastructure is unlikely; few countries operate a system as painless and seamless as the US. But insiders claim it's not outside the realm of possibility that Cuba's fee-based system will become both easier to navigate and less expensive once the island nation understands the potential of thousands of American pilots interested in visiting.

Don't hold your breath for rapid, dramatic change; at least not until after the US Congress votes to rescind the existing embargo and establish free (or less restrictive) trade between Cuba and the US. In the meantime, remember, casual visits and normal tourism remain off-limits as far as the US is concerned – and business deals, while more possible than in the past, remain subject to the limits of the embargo. Executive Orders can only take this process so far. T Aircraft Index see Page 193

Tips on Broadening Your Flight Department Safety Maximizing the Effects of ‘Positive Safety Performance’ in the Flight Department.

Safety generally, and Business Aviation Safety specifically, can wrongly be

measured by the lack of harm to people, which implies a negative approach

to characterizing a discipline, argues Mario Pierobon. How can Flight

Departments instead maximize the effects of ‘positive safety performance’?

he science and practice of safety has traditionally focussed on counting errors or threats and trying to build better controls around them. Today, this ‘pessimistic’ (reactive) perspective is increasingly being challenged.

Among those doing the challenging is safety scientist Erik Hollnagel, who argues that safety does not primarily emerge from controlling the things that work poorly in a technical system, process or

organization – instead, the focus of the safety science and practice should be on the things that go well as efforts are made to try and maximize their positive contribution.

This ‘optimistic’ approach is not very well defined yet in terms of workable solutions for safety professionals to put into place, but it is worth considering the ways positive safety performance affects the overall safety in the corporate flight department.

Aircraft Index see Page 193

Safety Nov16.qxp_Finance 18/10/2016 12:10 Page 2

An Endless List

There’s probably an endless list of positive factors contributing to safe outcomes in the domain of Business Aviation. These include well engineered aircraft; reliable equipment; and well developed training syllabi, etc. Such factors, however, may not universally apply. For example, not every organization has (or can afford) access to sophisticated technical solutions supporting flight safety.

Yet, there are some recurrent patterns that apply commonly throughout the Business Aviation industry, almost irrespective of organization, that significantly contribute to positive safety performance.

•

•

Enthusiasm: First and foremost, a high degree of enthusiasm in the workforce is required.

That comes from a passion for the job, be it a flying or support job. How will a Flight Department Manager achieve the level of enthusiasm among the staff to keep them sharp in terms of safety matters?

Creativity: Flight Departments tend to be relatively small in size and from this, a series of other positive dimensions emerges, including the need to be creative, and for solutions to be found autonomously.

Accountability: Smaller organizations also have strong accountability. Team members know their decisions will directly impact them or their immediate colleagues.

Leanness: Small organizations, like corporate flight departments, also tend to be very lean, dramatically improving the efficiency of decision making and getting straight to the point when discussing safety-related matters.

Business Aviation is essentially a small world.

Professionals generally know one another pretty well – and this, at least theoretically – enables an information exchange should issues that impact safety industry-wide emerge.

they are perceived to satisfy the soft skill requirements for ‘enthusiasm’, ‘creativity’ and ‘accountability’.

These skills should be fostered during their time on duty (both during line operations and as a part of their professional development). That may mean adequate focus being placed on those skills during crew resource management training.

Meanwhile, capitalizing on the ‘lean’ nature of the Flight Department, managers should provide immediate feedback to employees when safety issues are raised.

In essence, organizations should always strive to avoid complacency: It is simply not enough to accept the above safety performance enablers are a given; they must be continuously reinforced lest the organization gradually drift into sub-optimal and then poor performance.

Growing the Optimistic Approach to Safety

In Summary

•

•

In many ways these dimensions are nearly a ‘given’ within Business Aviation. Yet while they have not really been ‘engineered’ top-down in the industry, they survive in spite of financially challenging times.

What an ‘optimistic’ approach to safety management does require is the reinforcement of good behaviours. For individual organizations it all comes down to empowering people in the workforce.

These empowerment efforts should be exercised throughout an employee’s tenure with the organization. Employees should be hired if Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

A positive approach to managing safety needn’t replace the more traditional safety efforts – like hazard identification. Yet it should be kept in mind that a Flight Department could always be doing more to understand why things go well most of the time, and reinforce those best practices.

Aviation professionals should always be looking to broaden their focus in the effort to better their safety practice. A strong ‘Positive Safety Performance’ focus to the more traditional preventative measures is a leap in the right direction for any Flight Department. T www.AVBUYER.com

Regarding technology in the flight department, do you chase the latest and greatest or keep it simple and functional? Andre Fodor,

Aviation Director, Johnsonville Sausage ponders the question…

A

s I walked into our flight operations office I found my team huddled around a computer monitor. Curiously peeking over their shoulders, I found they were watching the unveiling of the latest iPhone. The presentation was fascinating. There are so many enhancements. But as my brain registered them a small , inner-voice was nagging: “I don’t have a need for all this new stuff!”

In reality, however, we all need the new technology! Maybe not immediately, but soon all these new gadgets and advancements will complement and facilitate our lives and become part of our daily routine as older technology eventually becomes more obsolete. We must stay 90

up-to-date and keep moving forward, lest we all become technologica lly handicapped and obsolete.

The question I was left with, as my thoughts refocused on work, was just how much technology is enough in an airplane? For this, we need to look at some facts.

The Latest & Greatest?

It’s a fact of modern-day life that technology evolves rapidly. In the space of a few months, an established approach can be replaced as technology enables a more effective solution. New airspace and regulatory requirements may thus demand increased technological sophistication for

who possess the onboard technology for enhanced systems never activate them. They own the technological edge, but they choose to defer utilizing it to reduce cost and maintain simplicity in their aircraft.

Simple, But Functional

There is much to be said about simplicity. We operate an airplane with an older, but proven avionics suite that has been kept functionally upgraded by the OEM. It was delivered with software that included FANS-1/A since we knew that post-delivery this would be a very costly upgrade (think north of $1m).

We were unable to get factory installed ADS-B and LPV, however, as these options were yet to be certified in our platform. With that in mind, I made every effort to provis ion the airplane with the ducting and wiring for the missing upgrades. The more I could do before the aircraft left the factory, the less pain I’d encounter when tackling those enhancements later.

Thus, once ADS-B and LPV certifications were achieved for our platform, we were the first in line for these advances in technology, therefore making our airplane the best-equipped of its breed and protecting its residual value in the market.

When it comes to new technology, there’s so much to learn. There are so many complex systems that have to ‘handshake’ seamlessly with existing technology in order for their magic to work. As proof of complexity, our Director of Maintenance recently spent 20 days in a classroom that covered only avionics. He now speaks of networks and interfaces. He appears to have evolved fro m licensed A&P mechanic to electronics and IT guru!

So What Is Right?

the aircraft and for the crew—new equipment, new learning, new standards and inevitably additional costs.

If your airplane can’t support those technological advancements, the hurdles and eventually the ongoing expenses will grow with the length of your ownership of that aircraft.

When I attend Business Aviation conventions and visit the static displays, I often ponder whether all the advancements I see in cockpit technology and cabin systems are beneficial or necessary.

One seasoned broker provided some valuable insight on that question. He explained that the wise buyer will purchase as much technological advancement as possible, within the financial constraints of their bottom line. His reason was that this approach would help lengthen the operational life of the asset and therefore protect the asset’s res idual value.

A colleague who sells datalink and satellite data services revealed that a large number of operators Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

I must confess that when I power up all this technology in our department’s newer aircraft, I am awed. The high definition of the displayed data, the accuracy and redundancy of the navigation systems and the workload reduction through automation are nothing short of amazing. There is value added in our ability to use Enhanced Vision Syst ems and Synthetic Vision Systems during challenging weather conditions and to stream data and video anywhere in the world.

Yet with that being said, when the gremlins visit (and they often do until all systems mature), having the option of getting our older, simpler, but wellequipped airplane out of the hangar provides us the assurance that comes from a well matured platform; simple yet (for the foreseea ble future) technologically able.

So I summarize this: there is no right and wrong answer. It’s more a matter of choice when it comes to how much is too much. You decide. Are you staying with your first generation iPhone, or springing up for the newest release…? T www.AVBUYER.com

he decision to promote Greg to Director of Aviation was made by his boss, the CFO. Greg was offered the opportunity partly because of his loyalty and longevity, and partly because the recruiter failed to entice prospects who were willing to relocate. None of the flight crew wanted the position, nor were any considered.

Greg’s experience was limited to supervising his department of five technicians for the past 20 years.

He’d built a close-knit crew that would come in on a day off to help get an aircraft out of the hangar. Greg was accustomed to their comradery and team attitude.

Now that he was responsible for the safety, service and finances of the Aviation Department, Greg thought that the responsibility to make

decisions came inherently with the job title. The crew didn’t feel the same.

Greg was a logical thinker, good at analyzing complex dat a and comfortable making independent decisions. His direct style worked just fine for his technicians. Not so for the flight crew. Decisions without consultation (and even with consultation) did not sit well with everyone. Doug didn’t see why he had to explain everything that went into the decision—he had not needed to previously. If all his decisions now had to be made by “yacking” about them, nothing wo uld get done.

Greg wasn’t aware of any alternatives to making and implementing decisions because he lacked a positive role model and management training. Many new managers in similar situations aren’t aware of the different decision-making options available, and  Aircraft Index see Page 193

when to use each one. There is only so much time and energy that managers can put into their job. Studies have proven that excessive decision-making can drain mental energy. The last thing managers need is a result that requires even more energy and attention to get everyone on board.

The Big Four

Each of the following four decision-making methods has its own consequences for team buy-in and commitment. When considering the method to use to make a decision, keep in mind: • • • • • •

The type of decision; The amount of time and other resources available; The past history of the group; The complexity of the project or task; The kind of climate the group wants to establish; The type of setting in which the group is working.

1) Authority without Group Discussion There is a time and place for this type of method to be used, and these include the following: • When very little time is available to make the decision; • When group members expect the designated leader to make the decision; • When there is a lack of skills and information among group members to make the decision any other way.

The dis advantages include: One person is not a good resource for every decision; Advantages of group interaction are lost; No commitment exists for implementation by others; Resentment and disagreement may result in sabotage.

2) Decision by Majority This method is so common that it is often taken for granted as the natural way for any group to make decisions. It is ideally used: • When sufficient time is lacking for consensus; • When it closes discussion on less important issues.

The disadvantages include: • • •

Usually leaves an alienated minority; Commitment for implementing the decision is not totally present; Can build ‘tribal’ wars within the department;

94

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

Not a good method when one or more members could sabotage or damage the outcome.

3) Authority after Group Discussion This involves the Director of Aviation having final say on such matters as hiring personnel. In doing so: • The Director of Aviation gains the benefit of using the resources of the group; • People feel they’ve offered their input.

The disadvantages include: • •

Perhaps the most familiar style used by new managers is the first method, followed in order of use by the other three options.

• • • •

•

Doesn’t develop commitment for implementation; Doesn’t resolve controversies and conflicts.

4) Consensus Consensus originated with the Quakers. Some groups think consensus should be the 70 percent comfortable rule; that is, each member is 70% comfortable with a decision. It should be used: • • •

In making serious, important and complex decisions; To incorporate the resources of all members; To elicit commitment by all members to implement important decisions.

The disadvantages include: • • •

Takes a great deal of time; Good communication skills are required by everyone; Team members must be emotionall y mature and put the department before self.

In consensus decision-making each member must feel they have been heard and understood by the rest of the team. Each person must be able to live with the decision or solution and must be willing to commit to carrying out the decision.

In Summary

By understanding the psychological impact and behavioral consequences of decision making options, managers are better able to anticipate an end result.

Greg learned that even if he is a good listener, can sort out complex information and holds the title of Director of Aviation, he still has to rely on the group to implement his decisions. Learning how these alternative decision-making methods affect his team’s commitment and morale, Greg can now decide beforehand which method will bring the best results. T

Entry-Level & Light Jets Are you Seeking Flexibility at a Lower Cost Level?

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.

A

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 Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

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 1997 through Fall 2016, and covers 32 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 Bombardier Learjet 40XR average value reported in the Fall 2016 edition of Bluebook shows $3.1 million for a 2009 model, $2.9 million for a 2008 model and so forth. www.AVBUYER.com

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 & Entry Level Jets – appears overleaf, 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.

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.

VARIABLE COST PER HOUR Includes fuel, maintenance reserves for routine maintenance, engine/ propeller/APU reserves, and miscellaneous expenses.

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

98

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

cabin space. Cabin Volume is the interior volume, with headliner in place, without chairs or other furnishings. Cabin Door Height and Width are the measurements of the main passenger cabin entry door.

BAGGAGE Internal baggage volume is the baggage volume that is accessible in flight by the passenger. This amount may vary with the interior layout. External baggage volume is the baggage volume not accessible in flight (nacelle lockers, etc.).

CREW SEATS/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.).

Weights: • Maximum Take-Off Weight and Maximum Landing Weight are specified during aircraft certification.

• Basic Operating Weight is the empty weight, typically equipped, plus unusable fuel and liquids, flight crew @ 200 pounds each and their supplies.

• Useable fuel is the useable fuel in gallons x 6.7 pounds per gallon (Jet fuel) or 6 pounds per gallon (AVGAS).

• Payload with Full Fuel is the useful load minus the useable fuel. The useful load is based on the maximum ramp weight minus the basic operating weight.

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

Specifications Performance Range: • Range (4 Pax) - The maximum IFR range of the aircraft with four 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.

• 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.

• VFR Range - Seats Full is the maximum www.AVBUYER.com

•

VFR range of the aircraft with all passenger seats occupied. This is used for all helicopters and piston fixed-wing aircraft.

VFR Ferry Range - is the maximum VFR range of the aircraft with the maximum fuel on board and no passenger seats occupied. This is used for all helicopters and piston fixed-wing aircraft.

Balanced Field Length BFL is the distance obtained by determining the decision speed (V1) at which the take-off distance and the accelerate-stop distance are equal (fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft only).

This is based on four passengers and maximum fuel on board (turbine aircraft). For single-engine and all piston fixed-wing aircraft, this distance represents the take-off field length at Maximum Take-off Weight (MTOW).

Landing Distance (Factored) For fixed-wing turbine aircraft, landing distance is computed using FAR 121 criteria. This takes the landing distance from 50/35 feet (depends on certification criteria) and multiplies that by a factor of 1.667. No credit is given for thrust reversers. Configuration is with four passengers and NBAA IFR Fuel Reserve on board. For fixed-wing piston aircraft, this figure is the landing distance over a 50 foot obstacle.

Rate of Climb (Ft/Min) The rate of climb, given in feet per minute, is for all engines operating, at MTOW, ISA conditions. One Engine Out rate of climb is for one engine inoperative rate of climb at MTOW, ISA. 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. Normal cruise speed is the recommended cruise speed established by the manufacturer. This speed may also be the same as Maximum Cruise Speed. Long Range Cruise is the manufacturer’s recommended cruise speed for maximum range.

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

Challenger 605 SN 5729 Fortune 50 Pedigree!

Fresh 96-Month Inspection!

Nothing inspires confidence when buying an aircraft like strong ownership pedigree. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what makes SN 5729 so unique in the CL 605 market. It has been owned and operated since new by a U.S. Fortune 50 company that itself is a leader in the aerospace industry.

And when an aircraft comes so highly-equipped, it only builds further confidence. Upgrades such as a third IRS, third VHF Comm, Inmarsat Satcom with Safety Services capability, ADS-B Out, domestic and international wifi, and RAAS are just a few of many features that distinguish this fine aircraft.

To learn more about Challenger 605 SN 5729, contact Jim Donath at Donath Aircraft Services.

Donath Aircraft Services 773.935.9871 jimdonath@donathaircraft.com Visit DonathAircraft.com

Exceptional Pedigree. Exceptionally Well Equipped. Exceptional Value.

hile primarily seeking to compare the Cessna Citation M2 with Embraer’s Phenom 100 in the light jet category, this month we reference the smaller Citation Mustang and Eclipse 500/550 business jets in our field of study for some additional perspective. Over the following paragraphs, we’ll consider a variety of productivity parameters, including Payload, Range, Speed and Cabin size.

The Cessna Citation M2 started delivering in 2013 and has a Maximum Take-off Weight (MTOW) of 10,700 pounds. The traditional divide between the light and entry-level jet categories is 10,000 lbs MTOW, placing the M2 in the light jet category. The Phenom 100 MTOW is almost 10,500 lbs.

The Citation M2 was developed to offer a pressurized cabin accommodating a crew of two and up to six passengers. Two FADEC-controlled Williams International FJ44 turbofan engines are pylon-mounted on the rear fuselage and fuel is stored in the wings. Space for baggage is provided in the nose and tailcone. The wingtip extensions on the M2 are too subtle to be called ‘winglets’, thus Cessna calls

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

www.AVBUYER.com

them ‘swooplets’. Additionally, the Citation M2 became the first light jet to feature Garmin’s G3000 system flat-panel avionics. The G3000 is an evolution of the G1000-based system that comes standard in the Citation Mustang and all of Cessna’s current single-engine models.

Today there are 118 wholly-owned Citation M2s and five in shared ownership, giving a total fleet of 123 in operation worldwide. Eight (or 6.5% of the fleet) are leased, according to JETNET. By continent, North America has the largest fleet percentage (78%), followed by Europe (12%) and South America (7%) which, combined, account for a total of 97% of the worldwide fleet.

US Flight Activity

In a comparison of Citation M2 operations (2015 versus 2014), Table A (overleaf) reveals a 74% increase in the number of Citation M2 flights during 2015, while the distance travelled by the operational fleet increased by 59% and flight times increased 61%. This is perhaps unsurprising as the worldwide Citation M2 fleet increased from 58 at the end of 2014 to 99 at the end of 2015.

Chart A - Cabin Cross-Sections Cessna Citation M2

Embraer Phenom 100/100E

The data contained in Table B (middle left) are published in the B&CA May 2016 issue, but also sourced from Conklin & de Decker.

As we have mentioned in past articles, a potential operator should focus on payload capability as a key factor. The Citation M2 ‘Available Payload with Maximum Fuel’ (504 lbs) is less than that offered by the Phenom 100 (580 lbs). Also, shown are the selection of Very Lights Jets with the Mustang leading all jets at 600 lbs.

Additionally, Table B shows the fuel usage by each aircraft (sourced from Aircraft Cost Calculator). There is 22gph or 22% difference in the fuel usage of the Citation M2 (121 gallons per hour) and the more frugal Phenom 100 (99 gph). In terms of fuel usage, however, the Eclipse 500/550 burns only 68 GPH, while offering an Available Payload with Maximum Fuel of just 2 lbs less than the Citation M2.

Cabin Cross-Sections

Among the major gains for Light Jets over Very Light Jets is in cabin volume. According to Conklin & de Decker, the Citation M2 cabin volume is 201 cubic feet and offers a length of 11 ft. By comparison, the Phenom 100 offers slightly more volume (212 cu. ft.), but the same 11 ft. length.

Chart A (left), courtesy of UPCAST JETBOOK, offers a ca bin cross-section comparison where we begin to understand where the Phenom 100 gains in volume over the M2. The Citation M2 offers less width (4.83ft vs 5.08 ft), and less height (4.75ft vs 4.92ft).

(For reference, the Citation Mustang and Eclipse 500/550 cabin volumes are 163 and 109 cubic feet, respectively.)

Range Comparison

As depicted by Chart B (top, right) and using Independence, Kansas, as the origin point the Citation M2 shows less range coverage than the Phenom 100 and Citation Mustang, but greater range than the Eclipse 500, per data from

Powerplant Details

As mentioned, the Citation M2 is powered by two Williams FJ441AP engines, each offering 1,965 lbst. The Phenom 100 is powered by two Pratt & Whitney PW617F-E engines with 1,695 lbst.

Cost Per Mile

Using data published in the May 2016 B&CA Planning and Purchasing Handbook and the August 2016 B&CA Operations Planning Guide we will compare our aircraft. The nationwide average Jet A fuel cost used from the August 2016 edition was $4.90 per gallon at press time, so for the sake of comparison we’ll chart the numbers as published.

Note: Fuel price used from this source does not represent an average price for the year.

Chart C (right) details ‘Cost per Mile’ and compares the Citation M2 to its competition, factoring direct costs and with each aircraft flying a 600nm mission with an 800 pound (four passengers) payload.

The Phenom 100 shows the lower cost per nautical mi le at $2.20 compared to the Citation M2 ($2.47). That’s a difference of 10.9% cost per nautical mile in favor of the Phenom 100.

Unsurprisingly, those jets in the Very Light Jet category offer lower costs per mile.

while the number of aircraft in-operation and percentage ‘For Sale’ are as reported by JETNET. The Citation M2 has 2.5% of its fleet currently ‘For Sale’ and the Phenom 100, 10.1%. The number of pre-owned transactions (sold) per month for the Citation M2 and Phenom 100 is exactly the same at five units per month.

Depreciation Schedule

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 are allowed to accelerate the depreciation of assets by taking a greater percentage of the deductions during the first few years of the applicable

www.AVBUYER.com

recovery period (see Table D, center, left).

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 straight-line 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 be 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 twelveyear 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 certain uses of the aircraft, such as nonbusiness flights, that may have an impact on the allowable depreciation deduction available in a given year.

Table E (left) depicts an example of using the MACRS schedule for a 2016 Citation M2 business aircraft in private (Part 91) and charter (Part 135) operations over five and seven-year periods, assuming a new retail price of $4.595m, per Vref Pricing guide.

While each serial number is unique, the Airframe (AFTT) hours and age/condition will cause great variations in price.

Our research suggests that the market for used Citation M2s responds to the followin g features: Years from First Delivery, Range, Quantity and Asking Prices.

Of course, the final negotiated price remains to be decided between the seller and buyer before the sale of an aircraft is completed.

Others may choose different parameters, but serious business aircraft buyers are usually impressed with Price, Range, Speed and Cabin Size. After consideration of the Price, Range, Speed and Cabin Size, we can conclude that the Citation M2 displays a fair level of productivity, and â&#x20AC;&#x201C; along with the Phenom 100 provides a good step-up model for VLJ operators looking to upscale.

Understanding Business Jet Charter When Could Chartering Your Jet Make Sense for You?

How can you maximise your return on investment on a private jet, and what are the tax implications and costs associated with Business Aviation charter?

Rani Singh discusses with Jet Exchange’s MD, Ian Austin. et Exchange has a fleet consisting of several aircraft – including the Pilatus PC-12 and Dassault Falcon 900 - but a large-cabin Bombardier Challenger 604 has a special place in Ian Austin’s heart.

“The advantage of the Challenger 604 is Rani Singh writes about that in most conditions, you can fly to the Middle aviation.

passengers require more than eight seats, and we often carry this number as far as Africa, Greece, Russia and the north of Scandinavia from London.

Many of our charter clients require a wide-cabin for various reasons, including feeling more secure, being able to stand up and walk around to avoid feeling claustrophobic.

“The types of trips our charter clients use the aircraft for are similar to those made by the owners themselves. The Challenger is a business tool.

at short notice, so the aircraft gives them that flexibility to get airborne as soon as possible, without having to waste time checking in at airports.

“A regular scheduled airline flight means hours of dead time unless you have solo work you can do on a laptop; whereas with a charter aircraft, a company based in London can fly to New York to make a presentation and practice the whole thing on the way over. That could be the difference between winning a contract and coming home emptyhanded,” notes Austin.

Advantages to the Aircraft Owner

Any aircraft owner considering making their business jet or turboprop available for charter will need to understand the implications with regard to tax, regulations and scheduling.

So how can placing a jet on a charter AOC help or hinder an aircraft owner?

“Unless an owner is doing a serious amount of flying each year, his or her aviation asset will be under-utilized. Our clients live business, and they understand this,” Austin explains. www.AVBUYER.com

BOARDROOM T OWNERSHIP “An owner has the option to have their aircraft operated privately or to put it with a company holding an AOC and have it listed on that company’s AOC. It’s only then that the owner has the option to make the aircraft available for charter.

“Most of the benefit comes by purchasing and placing the aircraft with an AOC company before even beginning to charter,” Austin offers. “Every moment your jet is on the ground, it’s costing you money. You’ve got a variety of costs that come with simply owning an aircraft.

“Obviously there are direct operating costs involved when actually flying (i.e. fuel, maintenance and landing fees), but at least then you’re getting something back through the functionality.

“For some owners, offering their jet for charter is the best way of minimizing the impact of those costs. They also have a professional procurement partner helping minimize expenditure of the aircraft. There’s no VAT to pay on purchase, and operations are also zero-rated so there’s no need to worry about VAT reclaims.

“As the aircraft is being used as a business tool, fuel is also duty-free and you’ll be exempt from mineral tax. So, using a charter company to secure and manage your aircraft cuts both capex and opex – something all business leaders want to achieve.

“However,” highlights Austin, “it’s important to be honest with owners to make sure they appreciate that owning a single aircraft is not a ‘business’, but a business tool; they are not going to make profit out of it - although the revenue derived from charter operations will offset fixed costs proportional to the owners’ own level of utilization.”

“...the revenue derived from charter operations will offset fixed costs proportional to the owners’ own level of utilization.”

Resolving Scheduling Clashes

Naturally, the potential exists for owners who make their aircraft available for charter to face clashes in their schedules. Both owner and charter client can’t

118

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

www.AVBUYER.com

use the jet at the same time, so who can expect to take precedence?

“A charter operator should demonstrate they can work closely with owners so that they know where the opportunities lie to get added value without causing any schedule clashes. In our case if a charter is booked and the owner then wants the jet, the charter client must always take precedence.

“If the owner has a flight scheduled and we then sell a charter, we will give the owner the option to step aside or change aircraft. The critical factor for any jet charter business is reliability, so when a broker makes a booking with a charter company they want to be sure that the booking will stand with no issues. Reliability is the key.”

Owners tend to have different preferences, notes Austin, with some wanting to agree every charter sale before approval and the aircraft marketed as ‘subject to owner’s release’. Many brokers do not like this, because it means they have to wait for certainty around a booking, and it’s especially difficult to get a short notice flight to happen.

From the charter operator’s perspective, it’s much more efficient when the operator has full control and can make quick decisions acting in the owners’ interests. “Sometimes the operator will be juggling other quotes at the same time,” Austin notes. “If there are multiple date, time and destination changes and they all need to go via the owner, it’s often a non-starter.

“It also complicates things for the owner, and starts to defeat the point of delegating responsibility to the operator.”

In essence, Austin notes, an owner must consider such factors before deciding whether to place their jet for charter. If the model will work for them, they should seek a charter company that has full autonomy, understands the aircraft’s owners well, and only contacts them (with the options) when only the owner can make the decision… T

How to Choose the Best BizAv Consultant

How to Obtain the Best and Highest Value from Consultants Love them or hate them, consultants are inexorably woven throughout the fabric of Business Aviation. David Wyndham offers his perspectives on how their expertise can be used most successfully… t our company, Conklin & de Decker, we are known for quantifiable data and measured analyses. Much like the heroes of Dragnet, the 1950s-era detective show on TV, we are looking for “just the facts”. But finding the facts is rarely easy. When there are cases where the client's needs are precise, we offer a fixed solution based on their stated needs. But many times the issues and questions are not so easily defined, and answers to the next questions are dependent on the answers to the initial questions.

Often prospective clients have difficulty describing or framing precisely what they need.

Rather than develop a broad proposal that may miss what they seek, we ask questions to understand the underlying issues. We look for solutions that address basic problems and satisfy the client’s latent (as well as obvious) needs.

Consulting arrangements tend to fall into three broad categories: • • •

Well-defined tasks; Ongoing consultation for operations and/or acquisitions; Tasks that address ill-defined issues or latent needs.

In each situation, we begin by asking probing questions. Consultants do their best work when clients are willing to participate fully in addressing their inquiries.

The well-defined task is characterized by clear objectives and specific questions that need answering. It has a limited scope, and the principle inquiries are closed-ended. Resources available for addressing the client’s aviation needs are well defined with respect to finances, personnel and Aircraft Index see Page 193

Ownership 2 Nov16.qxp_Layout 1 18/10/2016 11:19 Page 2

facilities. There may even be a specific time limit for addressing and implementing a solution.

There tends to be a very clear definition of the aircraft mission, which is well understood by both the executives and aviation teams. A good example of this is what I call the Aircraft Needs Analysis.

Case Study

A recent corporate client had two aircraft of the same make and model. The younger was over 12 years of age, three years less than the older aircraft.

A recent business acquisition required shuttling executives and management teams between several operating locations.

From a performance standpoint, both aircraft were well suited for their primary mission with one exception—seating and baggage space were issues. Many times the lavatory seat, which was legal for take-off and landing but rather uncomfortable for passengers, was being utilized.

No need to say more.

Several leaders with the corporation had concerns. The aviation manager had questioned what was the appropriate number of seats to fulfill his employer’s needs. The maintenance director was looking at aging aircraft issues impacting the schedule. The CFO was concerned with operating costs of the existing aircraft but worried about the capital outlay for acquiring replacement equipment.

The CEO had led the company through tough economic times and wanted to expand the capability, but he stated any new aircraft must not have a significant ramp presence.

We were tasked as consultants with defining the optimum time to replace the current aircraft, recommending a replacement and forecasting future travel demands. We had operations and acquisition limits; even the height of the hangar door was a limitation on the size of new equipment.

Despite the straight-forward nature of the assignment, we focused on asking questions…lots of questions! One-on-one interviews with the senior leadership and aircraft users helped further define

the requirements for any future aircraft. Fortunately, everyone had similar requirements and ideas.

It was up to our firm to summarize and define our client’s missions and balance the benefits of their existing or replacement business aircraft with the costs to own and operate them versus alternative forms of travel. Clearly, the goal was identifying the most cost- and time-effective means of transporting executives and management teams.

Because our client listened to our questions, responded to our probing and responded with comprehensive answers, we were able to deliver value.

Safety Audits

Another common example of a well-defined task within aviation is the safety audit conducted by a third party. Normally, safety auditors arrive with a set criteria and a list of questions for the aviation team. They actually define the tasks and goals of the audit.

Working with an aviation consultant on well-defined tasks such as a safety audit tends to have a high rate of satisfaction for all parties. The client is asked specific questions that the consultant helps to refine and then answer. Defining the deliverables tends to be easier and measures of success can be agreed upon with little ambiguity. In such cases, a fixed price quote is common and there are rarely surprises.

Other types of arrangements involve increased complexity and open-ended questions. The consultant may be asked to assist through aircraft selection, outfitting and delivery.

In essence, many tasks, even if well defined, are dependent on outside variables beyond the consultant’s ability to control. In such cases, open-ended arrangements are useful, but they come with a different set of assumptions and caveats that we will discuss next month. Stay tuned!

Business Aircraft Value: Choosing your Appraiser

What is USPAP and Why is it Important?

When sourcing an appraiser to value your business jet for sale, Jeremy Cox highlights why it’s worth knowing about the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. e have seen a huge amount of revision to policy and operational changes as a direct result of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis (GFC).

Most have involved the banking, financial and real estate industries. Indeed, it may come as a surprise that since GFC the practices of Business and General Aviation professional appraisers in the US have been harmonized under one universal standard named the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP).

USPAP was primarily born out of the Savings and Loans Crisis of the late 1980s, when Congress in its S&L Bail-Out-Bill authorized Federal financial

institution regulatory agencies to reference USPAP in their regulations. Yet it wasn't until 2010 – when the Appraisal Practices Board was formed to provide guidance in Recognized Valuation Methods and Techniques for appraisers - that aviation appraisers really began applying these methods to their appraisals.

To be recognized as a USPAP-compliant appraiser of personal property, it is necessary that the appraiser undergo (at a minimum) a 15 hour classroom course that culminates with a written examination. Recognized and compliant USPAP appraisers of the National Aircraft Appraisers Association are also required to receive eight hours of additional classroom training annually.

3.

Credible Appraisal Services for the general economic wellbeing of society; Appraisal Services carried out by ethical, competent individuals; Professional Services that create public trust in the individual appraiser and in appraisal practice, generally.

A USPAP-compliant aircraft appraiser must always work with objectivity, impartiality, independence, integrity and competency. They must also adhere to the following appraisal process...

Provide Definition of the Problem: • Identify the client (and other intended users) of the appraisal; • Identify the intended use (purpose of the appraisal); • Identify the type and definition of value; • Determine effective date of the opinion of value; Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

Provide Report of Defined Value Opinions: • The Appraisal Report.

Retain the Work File: • The appraiser must compile, collate and retain all records that pertain to the appraisal for at least seven years in testimony, and five years if not related to legal proceedings.

“ The appraiser must maintain impartiality, objectivity and independence.”

Note: It is unethical for a professional USPAPcompliant appraiser to: • Perform an assignment with bias; • Advocate the cause or interest of any party or issue; • Accept an assignment that includes the reporting of predetermined opinions and conclusions; • Misrepresent his/her role when providing valuation services that are outside of appraisal practices.

The appraiser must maintain impartiality, objectivity and independence without any accommodation made for the personal gain of any user or party. www.AVBUYER.com

AIR MAIL Modifications: Not All Bad & Ugly…

Regarding the article by Jeremy Cox, ‘Business Aircraft Modifications: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly in the Arena of Valuation’ (September issue, p60), I would like to add a comment.

He mentioned to be mindful that mods usually add weight. This is quite the opposite for many of the avionics modification upgrades such as Collins Pro Line 4 to 21 and other upgrades that remove heavy equipment and replace it with modern displays that weigh less.

Other mods that come to mind that may reduce weight and increase value are the numerous engine mods. For example, an old but great mod for the Falcon 20 removed the old GE engines and installed the TFE 731-5.

Winglets are another mod that increase the performance of an aircraft and enhance the value. So although the article seemed to focus on the negatives of mods, there are many mods that reduce weight, increase performance and range, and add value at time of resale.

Regards, Lane Clapsaddle StandardAero

Reply from the Author: Lane is correct in everything that he has raised in his note regarding my article. For brevity, I chose to focus more on the bad and ugly aspects. There are a multitude of modifications that both add value, utility, performance enhancement and safety. Unfortunately due to space constraints these were not singled-out and highlighted in my article.

As a note of interest, when I was Vice President & General Manager of Avtec in St. Louis performing the full cargo conversion of the Dassault Falcon 20, we saw as much as a 4,500lbs weight reduction when we converted the aircraft from corporate/passenger configuration to that of freight, including a massive cargo door.

per-hour operating expenses. Taking off on the return flight home, the aircraft reaches V1 speed when suddenly the right main tires blow out due to under-inflation.

The pilots elect to continue the take-off. When it is apparent the aircraft will not get airborne, they abort and apply full braking and reverse thrust.

piston, when an aircraft is involved in an accident it makes the headlines. Plaintiff’s attorneys perceive that aircraft owners normally carry high liability limits, which can provide a nice payday. You have not only your financial interests at stake, but also brand reputation and an FAA/NTSB inquiry to deal with (among many other things) while your business is ongoing.

“...letting someone use your aircraft is a whole lot different than tossing a friend the keys to your car.”

130

The Company You Keep

When you fly company personnel on your aircraft you may have the Workers’ Compensation bar to help protect you from bodily injury claims to an employee passenger. Not so with non-employee passengers.

Because business aircraft owners are high-networth individuals, their friends generally are too, which we will assume to be the case in our hypothetical accident. A plaintiff’s attorney in a wrongful death claim will typically sue to recover the economic and non-economic worth of that individual’s life to his loved ones.

For example, if a deceased passenger was a 40 year-old executive earning $1m per year, the economic value of his life would be rather impressive. He had 25 years until retirement. Based on a salary of $1m adjusted for inflation and considering raises over that time period, the math might look something like this: $1m x 25 years = $25m x .15 [adjustment for raises, inflation, etc.] = $28,750,000.

Then non-economic damages would be determined, including loss of consortium, pain and anguish. Lastly, the attorney may seek punitive damages.

This calculation is just for one passenger.

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

www.AVBUYER.com

In addition, the plaintiff’s attorney may argue that the accident flight was a charter, since the law holds someone engaged in commercial transportation is obliged to provide a much higher standard of care where the liability becomes almost absolute. At that point, it may become not a question of if you will pay, but how much you will pay.

Remember in our accident scenario the owner was being reimbursed for the full operating costs of the aircraft and was providing the aircraft with his pilots. The FAA may view this as a commercial operation since the owner provided airplane and crew for a charge [even though there was no intention to make a profit].

If your policy usage clause is not written properly, this situation could void your insurance coverage.

Caution

The point I am driving home is that letting someone use your aircraft is a whole lot different than tossing a friend the keys to your car. The stakes are exponentially higher, and unfortunately part of being successful is the need to protect what you have been able to build or acquire over time.

I don’t mean to imply you should never help a friend, only that you consider fully the potential consequences of your generosity before saying yes.

Importing Used Business Aircraft (Part 1 of 3)

How to Deal with Commonly Encountered Issues.

In a reversal of traditional selling patterns, business aircraft that had been exported from the US are being imported and registered with the FAA. Attorneys Keith Swirsky and Chris Younger describe what such transactions entail. istorically, two-thirds of the world’s business aircraft fleet has consisted of aircraft based and registered in the United States. Consequently, US companies considering the purchase of a used business aircraft have typically searched for an ‘N’ registered aircraft located domestically.

In the past it was unusual for US companies to consider the purchase of an aircraft that was based or registered in a foreign country.

However, in the years preceding the 20072008 recession, many new and used business aircraft were sold to buyers outside the United States. Consequently, the percentage of aircraft in the worldwide fleet that are now foreign registered is substantial.

Furthermore, today’s stronger US Dollar combined with the generally less robust non-US economies, have created a situation where a significant percentage of non-US based aircraft

are for sale, and such aircraft may be substantially less expensive than an equivalent model located in the United States. It is therefore more likely today for a company to conduct a worldwide search for a used aircraft.

Due to the complexity of purchasing an aircraft that is based or registered outside the United States, a company considering such a transaction must identify, analyze and resolve a host of issues that do not exist in connection with the purchase of an aircraft based in the US. The acquisition process will typically be more protracted and take longer than a domestic purchase transaction. There may also be cultural differences and communication difficulties that make it more challenging and expensive to negotiate, document and consummate.

In this series of articles, we will examine many of the unique issues that a company must confront in connection with the acquisition of a  foreign based or registered business aircraft.

Location, Location, Location

“The location of the pre-purchase inspection is often a contentious negotiating point.”

134

The primary obstacle to acquiring a foreign based aircraft is simply conducting an initial visual inspection and demonstration flight. For example, it is not uncommon for aircraft brokers to rate the interior and exterior cosmetics on a scale of 1–10.

That assessment is subjective, however, and the seller’s broker may rate the cosmetics higher than the buyer’s broker/consultants.

Sending a buyer’s representatives around the globe looking at candidate aircraft, however, can be time consuming and expensive. Some buyers will not have the patience to conduct sufficient visual inspections and will be disappointed with the aircraft that arrives on their ramp.

Perhaps the most significant technical issue is whether a candidate aircraft will qualify for a US Certificate of Airworthiness. Naturally, it would not be acceptable to a buyer to purchase an aircraft only to discover after the fact that an unidentified technical issue prevents the FAA from immediately issuing a US Certificate of Airworthiness (and with a possibly large additional expense to rectify the issue that prevented the FAA from doing so). However, resolving such a problem can result in a classic “chicken-or-egg” dilemma because the FAA will not issue a US Certificate of Airworthiness until after the aircraft is registered in the US (which typically occurs after the buyer purchases the aircraft).

Of course, it is necessary to resolve this issue before the company’s deposit becomes nonrefundable, since the buyer may not want to purchase the aircraft in such a situation.

In multiple transactions we have conducted, the buyer has required the foreign seller to obtain a United States Certificate of Airworthiness for the aircraft prior to closing. In this scenario, either the foreign seller may transfer title to his US broker or to a US trustee, who will then register the aircraft in the US and obtain a United States Certificate of Airworthiness.

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

The more common scenario is to have a Designated Airworthiness Representative (DAR) inspect the aircraft and records prior to purchase and delivery of the aircraft. The DAR inspection typically occurs concurrently with the prepurchase inspection and, as a condition precedent to the obligation of the buyer to close, the DAR would be required to issue a letter or confirmation email saying that the aircraft has been inspected, meets the requirements for the issuance of a United States Certificate of Airworthiness, and is suitable for issuance of a United States Certificate of Airworthiness as soon as the aircraft is registered domestically.

If the pre-purchase inspection occurs outside the United States, either the buyer or the seller will incur the DAR’s travel costs and daily per diem to conduct this inspection (unless an appropriately authorized foreign inspection facility with qualified personnel is engaged).

The location of the pre-purchase inspection is often a contentious negotiating point. A US buyer would naturally prefer to have the inspection conducted at a geographically convenient location in the United States.

However, a foreign seller will typically not agree to this unless the buyer agrees to a nonrefundable deposit at the time of contract execution. Also, the cost to ferry an aircraft to the United States can be high, particularly for aircraft that are located in Asia.

Many foreign sellers will demand that a US buyer pay all or part of such ferry costs associated with such an inspection. Conversely, conducting the pre-purchase inspection in a foreign location will be more expensive for the buyer.

Next month we will discuss the process of deregistration of aircraft from a foreign registry. T Are you looking for more Business Aviation Tax articles? Visit www.avbuyer.com/articles/category/business-aviation-tax/ Aircraft Index see Page 193

The Dassault Story (Part 1)

Pioneers of Innovative Technology in Military and Civil Aviation Rod Simpson reflects on the passion and technology of a unique aircraft company founded by Marcel Dassault, an industrialist who manufactured propellers for World War I fighters but had never been aloft until the conclusion of World War II. s you travel in the soft comfort of a cream leather seat in your Falcon 7X, high above the French countryside, it is hard to appreciate your connection with the helmeted Dassault Rafale pilot flying 10,000 feet above you.

Yet, your Falcon and his jet fighter are the product of 70 years of innovation from a design team that has little equal in the world of Business Aviation. Today, Dassault’s expertize encompasses the most advanced aerospace systems, but also ranges far from classic aviation to include 3D Printing, space technology, computerized design tools, unmanned aircraft - and much more.

Let’s go back to the beginning. Company founder, Marcel Dassault returned from German wartime imprisonment to re-establish his aircraft manufacturing company that had been a successful pre-war builder of Bloch airliners, and before that, Bloch propellers.

Not surprisingly, the first new products of Dassault were Flamant light transports for the French Air Force, but the company had experience of fighter design with its MB-152, 700 of which had been built in the early years of the war.

Marcel Dassault was soon enthused by the opportunities offered by jet engines for fighter aircraft.

Dassault’s mantra was "effectiveness with simplicity", and the first fighter design—named the Ouragan—to come from his team had a fuselage just big enough to contain a Nene jet engine with a nose intake and rear tailpipe.

The key to the Ouragan’s performance was its lowset swept thin-section wing - which meant that fuel had to be contained in wingtip tanks. The Ouragan was a great success, and it served efficiently with the French and Israeli air forces.

Dassault’s team moved on rapidly with new developments of the Ouragan. Their follow-on design, Aircraft Index see Page 193

DASSAULT MYSTÉRE

DASSAULT MIRAGE G

the Mystére, was the result of much research into swept wings together with the use of ever more powerful engines.

The immediate goal was to go supersonic - which the French designers achieved with the Mystére IIC, first flown by test pilot Kostia Rozanoff. Fitted with a Rolls-Royce Tay 250 engine, one of the Mystére prototypes broke the sound barrier in October, 1952. The subsequent Mystére IVA, which initially was fitted with the Tay but subsequently was powered by the Hispano-Suiza Verdon 350 variant on the Tay engine, had a new and thinner wing with a 38-degree sweep enabling the aircraft to achieve a top speed of Mach 1.2.

The Mystere IVA went into production and positioned the French Air Force in the forefront of military aviation at a time when the Cold War was in everyone’s minds. Attendees at the 1951 Paris Air Show made special mention of the smooth finish of the aircraft resulting from Dassault’s extreme attention to detail and extracting top performance through meticulous manufacturing processes.

Mach 2.0 and made headlines by breaking the World closed circuit speed record at 1,100mph. Subsequent versions of the Mirage III raised the top speed to Mach 2.4, and numerous variants were sold to customers worldwide from more than a dozen countries.

The other aircraft, the Mirage IV, which first flew in June 1959, was based on the same design philosophy. It was a larger Mach 2.2 twin-engined strategic bomber designed for France’s "Force de Frappe" and capable of delivering large 50-kiloton nuclear weapons.

It is characteristic of Dassault’s flexible attention to innovation that the highly successful Mirage III should see constant modification and upgrading. For instance, the Swiss Air Force sought improved maneuverability for their Mirage III fleet, and Dassault responded by developing the Milan which featured retractable canard surfaces mounted in the forward fuselage ahead of the cockpit. These "moustaches" were successful in lowering takeoff and landing speeds, shortening takeoff distance and improving the load-carrying capacity of the aircraft. Fixed canard surfaces would be featured on several later Dassault fighters.

Continued Progress

The next challenge for Dassault was to produce an aircraft for the Aéronavale (French Navy) that would have supersonic performance - but suitable low speed handling to allow it to operate from the aircraft carriers Clémenceau and Foch. This requirement forced the designers to produce virtually a completely new model - although it borrowed much from the Mystére IVA and its many derivatives.

By this time the Whitcomb-designed "area rule" or "Cokebottle" fuselage came into vogue, and Dassault applied Whitcomb’s principles to its new Etendard fighter jet. This aircraft had a larger wing area than the Mystére, folding outer wing panels for carrier storage, a beefed up undercarriage and complex flaps to facilitate carrier operation.

Once again, the Dassault team had come up with a winning formula, and the Etendard and its successor, the Super Etendard, served for many years, including operations with the Argentine Navy in the Falklands War, with the last Super Etendard only being retired in 2016.

In 1969, Dassault and Breguet merged and from that date became the only combat aircraft supplier to the French military. By that time, Dassault had further refined its fighter products with the Super Mystére. Soon a brand new concept emerged with the Mystére-Delta.

Again, it came from the company "religion" to achieve simplicity. The Delta wing allowed a very high degree of sweepback, reducing supersonic drag and easing the buffet at transitional sonic speeds, while maintaining wing area.

The delta configuration also made it possible to eliminate the tailplane and fit elevator surfaces to the trailing edge. Overall, the concept allowed an elegant and lightweight structure while maintaining good stability and maneuverability. The end result was two aircraft - the Mirage III and the Mirage IV. The Mirage IIIA, which first flew in May, 1958 was able to fly at 138

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – November 2016

Venture into VTOL

As early as 1954, the French air ministry had been taking interest in vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) combat aircraft. Several companies came up with outlandish concepts that used a variety of techniques including tilting wingtip engines and tail-sitting aircraft.

As it turned out, Dassault offered the most practical solution that was selected for further development, employing a combination of fixed lift engines and a separate turbojet for forward propulsion.

To test the concept, the airframe of the Mirage III prototype was converted to become the Mirage Balzac V, which used eight RollsRoyce RB.108 lift engines mounted in the center fuselage and a tail-mounted Bristol Orpheus for conventional flight. It flew in vertical mode in October 1962, with the first transition to forward flight the following March.

The VTOL Mirage Balzac presented many challenges, not least that it was very difficult to control laterally, a characteristic that probably led to the aircraft crashing and killing its pilot in the following year. Although the design prototype was rebuilt, it suffered another fatal accident and the design was scrapped.

However, Dassault did not give up, and its next VTOL experiment was the Mirage IIIV, two prototypes of which were tested. In many respects this was a successful design. In level flight the aircraft had a top speed of Mach 2.0, but the difficulties of development led to its abandonment - although Dassault had pioneered many new techniques that would be useful for future designs.

Yet another cutting edge program was the development of swing wings for combat aircraft. In the United States the General Dynamics F-111 had flown in 1964 as the first practical application of variable geometry wings; at the same time Dassault was working

with British Aircraft Corporation on the design of a swing-wing fighter (the AFVG) to equip the British and French navies and the French Air Force. As it turned out, the cooperation soured between British and French partners, and Dassault pulled out - but the project was to result in a new consortium that built the variable geometry Panavia Tornado.

Despite this, Dassault pressed ahead on its own and, in 1967, built the Mirage G prototype, which had wings that would sweep to as much as 70-degrees, giving the aircraft a top speed of Mach 2.2. This program, which involved complex challenges related to the structure of the main wing box, progressed through several prototypes.

By 1971 the Mirage G8 was in flight test. However, the French Air Force lost interest in variable geometry and the rest of Europe was committed to the Tornado.

engines when turbofans became available, could be converted as a freighter for Federal Express and be fitted with hardpoints for its military roles.

Sensing a New Market

Up to this point, Dassault had been a strictly military manufacturer.

Marcel Dassault, however, was well aware that the civil aviation market had promising opportunities and diversification would be a wise move in view of the uncertainty of large military orders.

Back in 1954 the company had done studies on the Mediterranée twin jet liaison aircraft, but suitable jet engines were not available.

In 1962, attracted by the emerging business jet market and with new jet engines such as the Pratt & Whitney JT12 becoming available, the company commenced studies of a new light transport, dubbed Mystére XX, which would use much of the technical knowledge gleaned from Dassault’s military programs.

The decision was a gamble because this was a private venture without the safety net of French Government development contracts. As with Dassault’s fighters, the aircraft would have a flawless external skin and the lightest possible airframe using a combination of milled components and alloy box sections. On May 4th, 1963 the elegant Mystére XX made its first flight, laying the ground for the range of Falcons that we know today.

For the design team, this was a new experience to produce a fail-safe structure with a fatigue life of more than 30,000 hours and without any life limited parts. It was to be designed to quite different FAR Part 25 certification conditions than military fighters and needed to be a luxurious aircraft with performance and comfort to attract a very discerning clientele.

It would include a fully pressurized cabin, de-icing for the wings and tail, a sophisticated flight deck with integration of the latest avionics, and the ability to operate out of demanding airports.

Dassault engineers also had to take account of the many roles the aircraft would fulfil - not just executive transportation but also as an air ambulance, cargo aircraft, feeder liner, crew trainer, airways calibration - and military tasks including weapons system training.

In fact, the Mystére XX (soon renamed Falcon 20) was an outstanding design that was flexible enough to accept different Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

New Era of Technology

Back in the military design office, the pressure for a successor to the Mirage III was on. In the mid-1970s Dassault studied an "Avion de Combat Futur", but eventually returned to the drawing board with a new and less complex delta - the Mirage 2000. For the first time, the aircraft would have fly-by-wire (FBW) controls with electronic actuation replacing conventional control rods and wires.

This concept took the design team into a wholly new area of technology - one that would be well adapted to the civil aircraft market. The Mirage 2000, which flew in March, 1978, would also be the first aircraft to have extensive use of glass-fiber composites in the airframe in order to reduce weight. The Mirage 2000 in its single and two-seat variants remains a key component of the French air defense lineup.

At the same time the Mirage 2000 was getting into the air, the French government launched a new program entitled ACT (Avion de Combat Tactique). Once again, this effort was envisaged as a multi-nation cooperative project, but no agreement emerged between the different air forces concerned and Dassault went ahead with an aircraft that would become the Rafale.

In 1984 a new design program was launched that took Dassault into entirely new territory. Gone were slide rules and drafting tables because Rafale would be the first aircraft to use the new CATIA computer aided design and manufacturing system (CAD/CAM) developed by Dassault. This was a quantum leap forward and, as we will see, established the foundation for the company diversifying into a completely fresh field of information technology-led businesses outside the aviation field.

By the early 1990s, Dassault was involved in space exploration, flight simulators, engineering software development, stealth technology and much more. It was a far cry from the manufacturing of the 1940s but continued the dreams and philosophies established by the founder - Marcel Dassault.

Benefiting from Heritage

Business Aviation has been the beneficiary of Marcel Dassault’s embrace of technology and love affair with clean lines. Falcons were the first civil aircraft to use supercritical wing designs (Falcon 10), area rule (Falcon 50 and 900) and fly-by-wire control systems (Flacon 7X).

Computer aided design was employed with the development of the Falcon 10 and all subsequent Dassault designs, and Dassault’s CATIA system was used broadly by other airframe manufacturers throughout the world. The aviation world owes much to a creative man who contributions are enduring. T More information from www.falconjet.com

MJets Open New Full Service FBO Facilities MJets of Thailand announced the successful opening of their new facilities recently. Based at Bangkok’s Don Mueang International Airport (VTBD) MJets Limited currently operates the first and only FBO & Private Jet Terminal in Thailand and has now moved into a new custom built, state of the art facility that includes:  Luxurious 320 square meter VIP Lounge with special private meeting rooms and separate lounge for VIP groups desiring highly private accommodations  On-site Customs, Immigration and Security  Crew Lounge and Crew Rest facilities that includes shower room  Four training / meeting rooms, the largest of which can accommodate up to 60 people Earlier this year AIN announced the results of its 2015 survey that the MJets Bangkok FBO was voted the best FBO in Asia and 4th best in the entire eastern hemisphere. In July 2015 the MJets Bangkok FBO also became the first FBO in Southeast Asia to earn IS-BAH accreditation from the International Business Aviation Council (IBAC).

MJets Executive Chairman, Mr. Jaiyavat Navaraj, said “Southeast Asia is a very important and evolving market for business aviation and Bangkok is at the center of this growth. For this reason, MJets is committed to the regional development and has invested almost 300 million Thai Baht in this new state of the art facility.” He continued “MJets not only specializes in FBO services, but also offers several distinct business lines which include aircraft charter, air ambulance, aircraft maintenance, aircraft management and aircraft sales /consultancy services. Mentioning aircraft maintenance, I’m very proud that MJets has recently been certified by FAA as a Part 145 Repair Station under the brand of Western-MJets enabling our new FBO facility to provide even better service for our customers owning N-Registered aircraft.” www.mjets.com

STC for Quiet Technology T chnology Aerospace Te Quiet Technology Aerospace (QTA) has received STC (Supplemental Type Certificate #ST04261AT) approval for its second Carbon Graphite Inlet Upgrade Program for Gulfstream G200 aircraft and their PW305 engines.

Having received FAA approval for the program’s first STC that targeted the Lear 60 model in late 2015, QTA has ramped up the company’s manufacturing and production levels to ensure it can satisfy market demand for the Inlet Upgrade Program and the 250 Gulfstream G200 aircraft operating worldwide.

Values V lues from JETNET Va During this year’s NBAA Show, JETNET will be releasing Values, a new service which incorporates actual aircraft sold prices into their Evolution Marketplace and Marketplace Manager services. After much input from their clients and industry experts, they believe this new service has the potential to help their customers contend with one of the key challenges the industry faces today, namely, the unprecedented erosion of aircraft values and its adverse impact on the resale market.

Through their decades-old relationship with aviation professionals across the globe, JETNET is uniquely positioned to provide this service with full accountability. Since JETNET is only available to their closed network of aircraft sales and related professionals, they are not disseminating the intelligence presented in Values to the general community of aircraft owners. Their goal is simple. JETNET will continue to work with their trusted clients, to be the steward of this sensitive price data and deliver a product that is of the highest standards of impartiality, accuracy and professionalism.

Armed with the new data from Values, they believe our industry can usher in an era of openness that will help jump-start this sluggish recovery and become a powerful new tool for our aviation sales professionals.

Visit JETNET at Booth #3043 at the NBAA Convention in Orlando, FL to view a demonstration of this exciting new product www.jetnet.com
