Business Jet Companies

In addition to the aeroplanes it manufactures for defence and cargo applications, it only manufactures large aeroplanes, all of which can be transformed into company or passenger planes - up to the double-decker A380, which can carry up to 555 people. The Airbus Group has two major production facilities, one in Toulouse, France, and one in Hamburg, Germany.

Toulouse is the site where all Airbus planes are produced, but some (mostly the A321) are sent to Hamburg for completion. The Airbus is now starting to construct large A400M helicopter transport systems, but this will be a very small part of the overall Airbus construction. Airbus' most beloved business jet models are the ACJ318, ACJ319, ACJ320 and ACJ321.

Normally, these models offer space for 15 to 50 seats, in comparison to the version of the carriers that can accommodate more than 200 people. As with Boeing business jetliners, Airbus commercial jetliners are often used by government leaders and business customers, and with over 300 carriers operating Airbus planes, it is simple to find one.

The next Airbus family A320 took to the market on 1 December 2010. Airbus, the so-called "neo" Airbus familiy, had been working on extending the familiy since the beginning of 2006. In addition to newer, more green and more efficient power plants (the so-called Nueo represents the New engine option), the Nueo range also comprises new bent singlets, which Airbus has called "Sharklets".

Despite the fact that between 2012-2013 Hawker Beechcraft's business history was marked by difficult times, the firm has been manufacturing popular airplanes since its founding by Walter H. and Olive Ann Beech in 1932. Under the name Beech Corporation, the airline first presented Model 17 - also known as Beechcraft Staggerwing - which captures the imagination of business travelers and aerial climbers alike.

Beech became a wholly owned business of Raytheon in 1980, before taking over British aerospace commercial jet and its beloved line of mid-size Hawker aircraft in 1993. In the following year Beech Aircraft merged with the Raytheon Corporation Jet to create Raytheon Aircraft. The business boomed for over a decade before Onex and GS Capital Partners acquired Raytheon Aircraft in March 2007 and changed the name of the business to Hawker Beechcraft Corporation.

Since Hawker was struggling to repay interest on the debts used to finance the acquisition, the firm revealed that it had completed protection under Section 11 in May 2012. In February 2013, following the failure of a high-profile acquisition of Beijing-based Superior Aviation, the Beechcraft Corporation went bankrupt as a renamed Beechcraft Corporation.

Beechcraft has shipped its last business jet in the first three months of 2013, but continues to serve the industry with a global customer base of more than 18,000 Hawker operators, parts and continuous technical assistance, including a global customer base of more than 90 authorized centers around the globe and a global sales force of 10 locations in the U.S., U.K. and Mexico.

Beechcraft, led by Textron, re-entered the business jet business in 2014 with the Hawker 400XPR, a rebuilt Hawker 400 with a price of $2.9 million. Beechcraft will soon be launching a new business jet aircraft on the German jet scene. Though Boeing is best known for its legendary aircraft, the Boeing Business Jet range was introduced in the late 1990s by taking over the 737's business cell and converting it into the BBJ through a range of custom conversions and luxuries.

Recently, BBJ' s have integrated intercontinental Boeing 777, Boeing 787 and Boeing 747-8 configuration and can accommodate up to 50 typical occupants with enough room for a main room, bath and lounge. Boeing Company itself was established in Seattle in 1916 by William Boeing.

The Boeing Group expanded for many years before it merged with McDonnell Douglas in 1997 and moved its head office to Chicago in 2001. The three versions of BBJ continue to be a favourite with jet enthusiasts and commercial jet users, and a combined 164 planes were sold to clients between 1996 and 2014.

Its most recent evolution took place in August 2011, when Boeing's Managing Director authorised the 737MAX widebody jet, almost a year after Airbus introduced the A320neo widebody jet, with which the 737 is competing. The BBJ version of the plane, conceived as a replacement for the existing in-production 737 range, was eventually released in April 2014 with an order from an unknown client for a unique BBJ MAX 8.

Part of Bombardier Inc - established in 1937 by Quebec-born Joseph-Armand Bombardier, who also invented the Schneemobil - Bombardier Aerospace is the third biggest aerospace group in the United States. Canadair' s commitment to aerospace began in 1986 with the takeover of Canadair. Bombardier returned Canadair to profit and did the same with Belfast-based Short Brothers and then the Learjet Factory in Wichita, Kansas.

Bombarddier manufactures a broad variety of jet aircraft for various applications. While the Learjet line consists of lightweight aircraft that can transport about eight or nine aircraft over shorter routes, the much-loved Global 6000 - formerly known as Global Express XRS - can transport almost twice as many people and is able to travel much longer.

Currently, the Group is working on a successor to the hugely acclaimed 5000/6000 model, with the 7000/8000 model due to go into operation in 2017/ 2018. Cessna' s smaller piston-powered airplanes, which have been building airplanes since 1927, have assisted the business to develop its name, but the hugely beloved Citation Business Jet line has contributed to defining its person.

From the Citation Mustang, which can accommodate four people in a cozy but convenient environment, to the mid-size Citation Ten, which can accommodate eight people and is known for its breathtaking speeds, the range includes the Citation Mustang, which can accommodate four people in a cosy but pleasant environment. It was Clyde Cessna, the first man to ever built and flown an airplane from the Mississippi River to the Rocky Mountains.

Hawker Beechcraft and Learjet, the corporation was established in Wichita, Kansas, and has retained its urban head office. Textron is a Textron affiliate, and Kansas-born Scott Earnest has been Cessna' s Chief Executive Officer since June 2011, after replacing Jack Pelton, who recently left the Group.

At present, the Group is working on two new series. But the second is probably the most interesting, and marked Cessna move into large cabins long-range business jet. Dassault Aviation, located in Paris, made a name for itself in the production of fighters for the army. 1954 the enterprise made a drawing of a slim business aircraft with two jet motors under the wings.

Well-known as The Méditerranée, the notion never went beyond the document on which it was originally printed after it was determined that the plane would be too expensive for large-scale production. The plane, not unlike the Mediterranean plane, was the company's first business jet and the first to prepare the waves for the legendary Falcon family.

However, after the US carrier had abandoned the concept of selling an airplane with a Franco name, it was finally converted to the Falcon 20 the following year. Dassault has in recent years manufactured a number of mid-size business jet airliners as well as the bigger Falcon 7X with three power plants and a cruising distance of almost 6,000 mile.

Dassault's latest model, the Falcon F5X and the Falcon 8X, were launched in 2013 and 2014, respectively, but while the Falcon 8X is a one-meter distance from the F7X with an extra 500 nm area, the F5X is a clear sheets designed to become the foundation for later, bigger scale model designs.

Embraer was established in Brazil in 1969 and went into the aviation industry to manufacture dependable turbo-props. With the production of a series of defence jets in the 1970', a local jet in 1985 and a Piper jet in 1974, Embraer was finally resold to prevent insolvency in 1994. Throughout the new century, the firm turned its head when it heralded the launch of its legacy programme and the construction of its first business jet.

As the Legacy continues to consolidate its position as an extremely beloved mid-size jet, Embraer went on a 2006 U.S. air show trip to present models of its new Phenom 100 and Phenom 300 business jets. After Embraer began to build commercial airliner executives at the beginning of the 2000s, the company is now looking for a single scale version in each of the sizes and weights.

It was Embraer's decision to give the plane the name Legacy rather than Phenom to give the new series the feeling of a bigger plane series. While Gulfstream has designed a number of well-liked mid-size business jet models such as the G200 and G450, the Georgia-based firm has earned its fame almost exclusively through the construction of large business jetliners.

Gulfstream Aerospace, which has always specialized solely in business jets, emerged from Grumman Aviation Engineering Co., a producer of aircrafts for the armed forces. Grumman's origins go back to the early 1950' when it manufactured a business turbo prop called Gulfstream I. The move from the state of New York to the small town of Savannah, Georgia did not take place until the 1970's when Grumman renamed itself Gulfstream American after its merger with American Aviation Corp.
