CL300 for the super mid. Take it to the bank.

Yep-she's proven. The risk with the emb is that it's stillborn, ala the hawker horizon/4000.

I don't think there's ANY risk of the Legacy 500 becoming another H4000.

Yep, I think the Challenger 300 is running a strong race too. I have a couple of buds at Flex who fly it and really like it.

Many also said that about Boeing and the 787.

You know...gunfyter. G4dude, me and everyone else are saying the same thing, albeit (I love using that word) in a different way.

Gunfyter is the ultimate capitalist in that he wants everything, which is what a real capitalist believes in. The problem, the world can't survive if we all get everything we want.

Poor G4dude comes out with something that doesn't rhythm with union and gets his testicles almost cut off!

Pretty good post.

G4 good post as well. But I submit recent events as more proof of what real capitalists want. Insider Trading and other cheating. I think we have just witnessed NAKED Capitalism.

And I recommend this book The Naked Capitalist That is if you want to discover who the real criminal organization is in this world.


To bash the Unions as criminal organizations and say nothing about the malfeasance of management .... is very B19ish :laugh:.

Flew a demo trip for Netjets last week. Picked up a couple famous faces and took them from ICT-CMH. Every piece brought on the plane had Learjet 85 on it. Very dependable source quoted 100 aircraft deal done by the end of summer.

Didnt get that far. Also added the first 45 with Garmin will be in about the 440-450 serial # range (See 2nd qtr 2012). The 85 passenger seats in the 45 will also be a new change with the Garmin 5k. Should be a heck of a upgrade for those purchasing one. Keeping the fingers for all your guys waiting for a callback-

Unless I'm missing something...why would they have Lear 85 stuff while coming out of Wichita? I was pretty certain the Lear was a Bombardier product? No?

Because Learjets are made/completed in ICT, despite being owned by Bombardier?

Was that a question mark at the end of your sentence? I'd have to doubt that they are made/completed at a plant owned by a competitor, unless it's avionics or something? Wouldn't Bombardier have all the completion facilites up in Montreal?


Unless you know for sure? I really don't....

 

[BoilerUP]

The question mark was because I answered in the form of a question.

Bombardier purchased Lear in 1990.

Learjets are made in Wichita, on the northeast side of 19R.

The facility is called "Bombardier Learjet".

The Lear 40/45/60 is manufactured in Wichita. Many components for the Lear 85 are to be manufactured in Mexico, with the airplane's final assembly and completion taking place there.

Hence why an airplane coming out of Wichita had lots of Lear 85 promotional materials - Wichita is Lear HQ, despite being owned by Bombardier.

The 60 fuselage is manufactured in northern ireland and shipped to ICT for completion.
