Cessna Citation Longitude

This private jet does look pretty much like one of the best values for your money. Even operating costs are very contained, since you can wait 18 months between each major inspection.

  • Comfortable: Feel it as soon as you step inside: A spacious, flat-floor, six-foot stand up cabin with best-in-class legroom for ultimate comfort.
  • Quiet : Cessna developed exclusive sound proofing techniques to design the world’s quietest super-midsize cabin. Whether you’re resting or conducting business, enjoy the peace and quiet needed to make the most of your time in the air.

Falcon8X, the private jet with the French touch

  • French elegance coupled with state of the art technology and avionics.
  • The unique comfort of having 3 engines – that means steeper takeoffs and plenty of power in any conditions.
  • Direct operating costs 35% lower than those of competing jets.
Unbeatable economics

Falcon 8X direct operating costs are as much as 35% lower than those of competing jets. And thanks to its optimized airliner-type MSG-3 maintenance program, time between 8X major inspections is 800 hours or 12 months, giving you greater use of your airborne asset.

HondaJet Elite, the Honda feeling

If you ever drove a Honda you know what I mean by Honda feeling. It feels nimble, handy and at the same time class. Well, the HondaJet feels pretty much like a Honda.

Key features of the HondaJet Elite –

  • Range: 1,437 nautical miles* Longer range makes it the furthest-flying aircraft in its class.
  • Noise Attenuating Engine Inlets: Advanced inlet technology created to reduce exterior and interior noise
  • Performance Management: Provides optimized performance planning for all phases of flight such as airspeed / cruise altitude, fuel flow, etc
  • Takeoff/Landing Distance (TOLD) Management: Automatic computation of the required runway length, V-speeds, climb/approach gradients, etc
  • Stability and Protection with Roll and AoA Functions:Provides enhanced safety features for manual flying that will deter aircraft operation outside the normal flight envelope
  • AFCS Coupled Go-Around with Underspeed Protection: The aircraft’s autopilot remains connected, enhancing aircraft safety and reducing pilot workload.
Bombardier Global 8000
Industry-leading power and performance

No other business jet provides the speed and range of the Global 8000 aircraft. With an industry-leading range of 7,900 nm, travelers are free to chart their course with more routes and destination options than any other business jet ever conceived.

Embraer Lineage 1000e

Since Boeing bought Embraer, no wonder they came out with a jet which looks like a smaller 737. Absolutely remarkable.

Available for private ownership, the Embraer 1000e aircraft from the Lineage series is an ultra large corporate jet that needs to be operated by 2 crew members, and depending on the chosen configuration, accommodates from 13 to 19 passengers.

PERFORMANCE DATA:
