Boeing considers new 737-based business jet

Wichita Business Journal - 2:37 PM CDT Tuesday
by Ken Vandruff


The Boeing Co. is looking at building a 737 that could be used as a business jet or cargo hauler.
The jet would be based on the commercial 737-700C that allows operators to convert between passenger or cargo layouts. It would give Boeing Business Jet customers the ability to use the jet for executive transport for one mission, then carry cargo on other flights, said Steven Hill, president of the Boeing Business Jet program. The future of the program would depend on a customer willing to place a firm order.


This should work out well for those trips with "heavy bags"!

I can just picture it now; well boss, after we drop you off here, we're ripping out the interior and hauling some transmissions to one of our assembly plants. We'll be back tomorrow to fly you to China.

I was laughing until I thought about some highly paid manager giving himself a few mil bonus for this idea....

Boeing may have built a lot of combis but they clearly haven't flown on them after they've been in service for a few years... TC

It's inevitable that a company like Gulfstream with outdated engineering, a boring product line, and absolutely no concept of customer support will be booted off the market by a company like Embraer. The E1000 is only the beginning - I hear the fine folks in Brazil are planning an airplane with a .85M max cruise speed and a 4001NM range. Gulfstream cannot and should not even attempt to keep up with this sort of ingenuity. Customers will start cancelling G450 & 550 orders in droves by the next NBAA get together when Embraer announces their new "Stealth Jungle Jet 1000." (You can't see it behind the service center doors). We in the falcon family don't even answer the phone anymore when the Savannah crew calls just in case a call from Brazil is in the works - gotta keep that line clear after all. It's only a matter of time my friends and the future don't look too pretty.:uzi:

It's a shame GV washed out of school but I think it's for the best.:crying:





That should add an additional 25 pages. This could top the "Keep it going" thead.

Now thats some funny $hit!!!!!:laugh:

Okay, I'll bite, but we should probably move this to a new thread called "LINEAGE BASH FEST".

- E-170/190 first EASA certified aircraft.

- HGS, CAT III, Autoland Capability Installed and CERTIFIED

- Unlike the BBJ and ACJ, the airplane has a lot of baggage space. You want baggage space in the BBJ and ACJ you trade off fuel from what I am told. Not on the 190.

- 0.82M, FL410, 4,200NM

- Lineage $40.95m complete for 19 pax interior. Compare that to a DA900EX or a G450. Lineage pretty good deal all the way around it seems.

- The Lineage is going to have the steep approach certification just like the Legacy.... Will the G450 go into London City?

- Someone is bashing on the 170's avionics... All I can say is, Embraer delivered their airplane on time and in working order. EASy and PLANEVIEW, though wonderful (I have seen the Gulfstream's and it was awesome) were plagued with development issues and delays from what I understand. Embraer supported their customers ON SITE, too, and worked very hard to address and resolve the issues its clients were concerned about.

...apologies...

Dear corporate aviation:

We at RAH are deeply apologetic for firing (or under his description "resigning") "Legacy Driver" and unleashing him on your world and forums. Although we weren't sad to see him go, we figured the flight levels would be safe. His attempt at going undercover failed merely due to the fact that his writing style hasn't changed since his "Skull-1" days and his Bedford quote is still in his tagline.

With sincere humbleness, we beg your forgiveness.

EVERYONE knows that LegacyDriver is in fact Skull-1... He was "outed" many months ago and has been given a reprieve with the understanding that he will behave...
