defined as a service that customers can purchase or lease share of a plane instead of purchasing the entire plane. The core product of this industry is to sell a fraction of the plane but owners can choose sizes of share‚ cabin volume‚ and types of aircraft that best match their needs. Most shares are sold at 1/16th or 1/8th of fraction share‚ which will be converted to number of flight hours per year (Exhibit 1). The minimum of share rental is 1/16th‚ or 50 hours per year with two to five-year agreement

because aviation is the most dynamic industry and its forecast is quite complex. Planning is a specialized phase of air development before design can begin. The most efficient plan for an airport is that which provides the required capacity for aircrafts‚ passenger cargo‚ and vehicle movements‚ with maximum passenger‚ operator & staff convenience at lowest capital & operating costs. Flexibility & expandability should be considered in conjunction and are fundamental to all aspects of planning

aviation came about after World War one when pioneers explored new uses for aircraft‚ before that aircraft were only used for war purposes. In 1908 the British army developed aircraft‚ a few years before in 1904 J. E. Cooper‚ from the British war office‚ visited the Wright Brothers. His aim was to bring back information and skills on aircraft. This did not happen because the Wright brothers asked for $100‚000 for the method of aircraft and a further $100‚000 for the formulae and theoretical knowledge. The

The Bombardier Q400 origin comes from the de Havilland Canada Dash 8 or DHC- 8. It was initially built for short take off and landing aircrafts‚ suitable for operating in small city centre airports. Eventually Bombardier bought de Havilland Canada renaming and developing the Qseries to emphasize the quietness of the aircraft. The first Qseries was named the Q100

Ruth was a tough former secretary of the navy who stepped in as new president and chairman of the board. Ruth’s first concern in creating a financially solid company was maintenance costs. It was commonly believed in the airline industry that maintenance costs rose with the age of the aircraft. Ruth quickly noticed that‚ historically‚ there has been a significant difference in reported
