NEW GULFSTREAM G280 GOES FOR THE GOLD IN SUPER-MIDSIZE CLASS; MACH 0.85 SPEED, 3600NM RANGE
超中型公务机中的未来王者：湾流宇航新型公务机G280
Sets Four City-Pair World Speed Records; On Schedule For FAA Certification in Q4
创造4项城际飞行速度记录；欲于今年第四季度获得认证
The new Gulfstream G280 impresses in every aspect and is a far cry from its predecessor, the G200. While the two aircraft resemble one another, their airframes are both built by Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI), they are miles apart as far as design and performance are concerned. The G280 is in fact a brand new airplane and will be certified as such, first by Israel’s Civil Aviation Authority (CAAI), followed by the FAA in the U.S., EASA in Europe and China’s CAAC. As one might expect, Gulfstream’s people in China have already been working towards CAAC certification. That’s only the beginning, of course, and other countries will be added on a continuing basis. (For the record, the G200 which the G280 replaces, logged a total of 250 deliveries before production was halted in December 2011 to make room on the roster for the new entry, which is positioned between the smaller G150 and the larger G350. And there‘s plenty of room to move up the line all the way to the G650. If one has the motive and the means, naturally.)
And what are the features and advantages of the G280 over the G200 and what makes it such a strong competitor in the super-midsize category? We asked Heidi A. Fedak, Gulfstream’s Senior Manager, Social Media & External Communications, who had plenty of answers.
As Fedak explains, “Let’s start with the cabin, because that’s usually most important for the owner or operator. At nearly 26 feet, it’s much longer than that of the G200. And it’s a true stand-up cabin with a 6’ 3” height. A key cabin feature is that the large baggage compartment is accessible from the cabin.” Just in case a passenger left her copy of “The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo” inside her suitcase, for example. Or worse yet, the marketing plan which the boss would like to see right now, at 43,000 feet, no less. Yes, it’s a very handy feature, indeed.
According to Fedak, an HD entertainment system is standard, along with the Gulfstream-developed Cabin Management System. The latter allows a passenger to use his smart phone to control cabin lighting, temperature and entertainment equipment, to name a few. And there are three seating arrangements: Executive forward galley and double-club seating for eight, with flat reclining capability; Universal forward galley with club seating for four and a sofa; and a Hallmark forward galley with club seating for four and a separate conference seat arrangement for up to five passengers. When necessary, the G280 can carry up to ten passengers plus crew. But more typically it might carry four to six. After all, it’s a luxurious jet, not a bus.
Getting into some select facts and figures, Fedak points out that with its 3,600 nautical mile range, the G280 can fly between any two points in China, and beyond. And a fuel stop or two allows many more options, of course. “Our takeoff distance is less than 5,000 feet and the landing distance is 3,180 feet, so we should be able to operate in and out of London City Airport. Our G150 is certified for that and we’re looking to doing the same with the G280, as London City grows in popularity among business aircraft operators.”
The G280 is much more fuel efficient than the G200, credit due to the new fuel miserly Honeywell engines and advanced aerodynamics of the larger wing and the addition of performance-enhancing “winglets,” those cute little things on the wingtips that do so much for fuel efficiency and increased range. One might call them awesome.
Moving on to some more technical details, Fedak explains,“The G280 features the PlainView cockpit, which is based on the Rockwell Collins ProLine Fusion system. This includes the Gulfstream cursor control device which enables pilots to input data easily and provides instant display of information, including flight plan and routing changes.
The side-mounted cursor device is integrated with the cockpit, so it is redundant with the aircraft‘s conventional controls. It reduces pilot workload through interactive controls, menu selections and range/speed scrolling. It also offers moving map displays, graphic weather and many other features. Best of all, it will be able to meet the 1A requirements for future air navigation systems. Dual auto throttles are standard equipment, as is an auto-braking system, which adds to passenger comfort and even reduces brake wear.”
湾流宇航新推出的超中型公务机G280各项表现优异，较之上一代G200提升显著。尽管这两代机身一脉相承，均由以色列航空工业公司（IAI）出品，但无论是设计还是性能，G200都望尘莫及。作为新的里程碑，G280的设计定位在小型G150和大型G350之间，并将分别获得CAAI、FAA、EASA和CAAC认证。为迎接G280的到来，G200在2011年12月就已停产，累计交付250架。当然，如果您有更高的需求，湾流另有各种丰富的型号满足升级空间，直至整个系列最高端的G650。
那么，G280究竟在哪些地方优于G200，使它成为超中型公务机中的佼佼者？针对这一问题，湾流宇航的资深媒体经理Heidi A. Fedak给了我们详细的答案。
“通常对机主或运营商来说，机舱是最重要的。比起G200，G280的机舱明显增长到将近7.93米；而1.92米的舱高可让乘客完全直立行走。另外，机舱内置行李舱也是设计上的一大特色。”我们可以试想，当飞机已经飞上了13000多米的高空之后，某位乘客发现小说遗忘在衣箱里，或者你的老板急着想看某个市场策划，这时我们如果能够直接打开行李舱，那该有多方便呢。
据Fedak所说，G280的标准娱乐设施基于湾流宇航自行开发的机舱管理系统，这一系统可让乘客使用智能手机来控制机舱内部的灯光、温度、娱乐以及其他设备。该型号共有三种舱内布局：企业家版双排座椅共载8位乘客；普及版单排四人座椅加一个沙发；经典版单排四人座椅外加一个临时座椅。这三个布局中都有前方厨房，即使在飞行过程中，讲究美食的老饕们也不会失望。根据实际需要， Shifting gears, she gets into a new safety feature that has little chance of ever being used, but it’s nice for an operator to know it’s there. “For added safety, the G280 is equipped with an automatic emergency descent mode that protects the aircraft and its passengers in the very unlikely event of a rapid cabin depressurization.”
In addition to the considerable amount of standard features, Fedak lists a couple of key options. “For example, G280 will also have Gulfstream’s Head-Up Display and Enhanced Vision System (EVS) as an option. The EVS dramatically improves the pilot’s situational awareness during low visibility conditions and also allows the pilot to descend below the normal decision height, as long as the airport runway can be seen through the EVS. At 100 feet, the pilot must be able to see the runway without the aid of EVS.”Needless to say, but we’ll say it for emphasis, this is a great safety feature to add to your new G280, especially at a most critical point of any aircraft’s flight, landing, in addition to takeoff. The G280 also features a hot leading edge wing antiicing system as standard equipment, to maximize safety.
So when can we expect to see this magnificent machine certified and initial deliveries begin? Says Fedak, with more than a measure of confidence, “We are sticking to our original schedule, which calls for certification in the fourth quarter and first deliveries shortly thereafter.”
“The last step is avionics software loads coming from Rockwell Collins in short order, and once that’s done we’ll be in good shape to complete the certification process.” It appears to be a sure thing, so in astronaut language, it’s“All systems go!” for the new Gulfstream G280 which, by the way, requires an investment of $24 million USD. So? If you’ve got it, go get it!
(For even more information on the G280, please visit www. .)
G280最多可载荷除机组人员以外共10位乘客，但通常仅搭载4~6位乘客。因此，G280的设计不像巴士那样拥挤，它是一架设施豪华的公务飞机。
G280航程达到6667公里（3600海里），可在中国国内任意两地之间飞行。当然，这一航程还能胜任更远的飞行；而中途加油一至二次，航程范围则明显扩大。“G280的起飞距离不到5000英尺（1524米），降落距离仅为3180英尺（969米），所以可在伦敦城市机场这类小型机场中进出。由于伦敦城市机场正越来越受到公务机运营者的青睐，我们将G150的滑行距离也设计成相同规格。”Fedak这么说道。
G280的节能效率比G200显著提升，这得归功于新一代Honeywell引擎和加大设计的机翼对航空动力学的改善。同时，“机身小翼”还能进一步节省能耗、提升航程。设计完美，令人赞叹。
“G280驾驶舱引进了基于Rockwell Collins ProLine Fusion航空电子系统所开发的PlainView技术，无缝融合了湾流宇航的光标控制系统，使飞行员能够及时显示飞行计划及航线变化。有了这一实时互动平台，某些传统的飞行控制操作成为多余，飞行员工作量显著减轻，取而代之的是菜单选项、航程及速度切换、地图更新、图示气象等一系列电子界面操作。同时，这一系统还能满足未来导航系统提倡的1A技术要求。而自动双油门制动系统更能保证乘客的舒适感，还能减少制动组件磨损，提高使用寿命。”
Fedak还谈到了一项新的安全性能：“为了增加安全系数，G280配备了紧急状态自动处理模式，这种模式能在极少发生的降压事故中保护乘客与飞机安全。”尽管使用这一功能的机会很小，但对行员来说，这是一项很好的附加安全系数。
除了以上这些标准功能，G280还可配备更多性能以供选择。“比如，湾流宇航的挡风玻璃显示装置和加强型视觉系统（EVS）等，都可选择配备。EVS系统能极大改善飞行员在低能见度飞行状态下的判断力，并能使飞机在低于标准飞行高度时紧急降落，前提是EVS能够观测到附近有机场跑道。而在100英尺这样的高度，飞行员不需要EVS也能看到地面上是否有机场跑道。”因此我们有必要强调这一性能，特别当飞机在起飞或降落的关键时段里，它能大大增强安全保障。此外，G280还能配备机翼抗冻性能，更进一步提升飞行安全。
这一型号何时能与买家见面？Fedak自信满满地回答：“一切按原计划顺利进行。今年第四季度获得认证，然后即可交付第一批G280。”
认证前的最后一步是Rockwell Collins负责安装航空电子系统软件，然后一应俱全。用一句航空术语来说，就是“所有系统正常”！这一售价2400万美元的G280即将袭来，您是否已经为之动容？
In a ceremony held at Embraer’s headquarters in Sao Jose dos Campos, Brazil, Kong Lingjiang, Vice President of Xinjiang Guanghui Industry Investment Group, accepted delivery of the first Embraer ultra-large cabin executive jet to be operated in mainland China.
“We welcome the Xinjiang Guanghui Group to join Embraer’s increasing customer base in China,” said Guan Dongyuan, President of Embraer China. “We believe that our Lineage 1000, will prove to be the ideal ‘business partner’ for our new customer by increasing the productivity of its daily operations, while providing the ultimate in traveling comfort.”
As Kong Lingjiang agreed, “We’re confident that the Lineage 1000 will give us outstanding performance, providing our executives a ‘home away from home’, while maximizing the use of this aircraft as the true business tool we need to optimize our valuable time.” And, after all, time passed can never be replaced. “Time flies,” as the saying goes.
Since the first delivery of an Embraer executive jet in greater China in 2004, Embraer has gained firm orders for 28 executive jets in the region. Last year was especially impressive for Embraer in the Chinese market when it booked 15 firm orders, including an Embraer large-cabin Legacy 650 jet, delivered to Jackie Chan. Do we need to explain who he is? Not at all. He is known worldwide and now is Embraer Executive Jet’s roving brand ambassador for wherever his Legacy 650 can take him. Incidentally, his Legacy 650 is the first to be delivered in the Greater China region. Understandably, Embraer is feeling very confident these days and boldly predicts an industry-wide demand for some 635 executive jets in the Chinese market over the next ten years.
About the Lineage 1000: It has a range of 4,500 nautical miles, making it capable of flying nonstop from Beijing to Dubai or from Hong Kong to Sydney, for example. It features a highly advanced avionics suite as well as an electronic fly-by-wire control system, which basically means that the control surfaces are moved according to the pilot’s input to the computer system. The Lineage 1000 is all about creature comfort and is the only jet in its category providing up to 19 passengers with five distinct and spacious cabin zones. Like a flying luxury hotel, on-board amenities may include a queen-sized bed, stand-up shower and complete audio and entertainment systems. A walk-in baggage area, the largest
巴西航空工业公司不久前在本国圣若泽杜斯坎普斯总部举行了一场交付仪式。活动现场，来自中国新疆广汇集团的副总裁孔令江签订了交付协议，将在中国大陆首家运营巴航工业的大型公务机世袭1000。
巴航工业中国区总裁关东元表示：“我们欢迎新疆广汇集团加入巴西航空工业公司在华日益扩大的客户群体。我们相信世袭1000作为本公司全系列公务机产品的旗舰机型将成为新疆广汇集团的理想商务伙伴，在为其提供舒适飞行体验的同时，有效提高商务效率。”
新疆广汇集团副总裁孔令江对此赞同：“我们相信世袭1000超大型公务机卓越的飞行品质不仅能为用户提供‘空中之家’的温馨感受，而且能将公务机作为时间机器的作用发挥到极致。”
自2004年向大中华区交付首架公务机以来，截至目前，巴西航空工业公司已在此区域拥有28架公务机的确认定单。2011年，公司在中国公务航空市场的表现尤为突出，总共签定了15架公务机的定单。这其中就包括国际著名影星成龙所购买的莱格赛650机型。作为巴西航空工业公司公务机的品牌大使，如今成龙可以坐着自己的莱格赛650遨游全球。巴航工业非常自信地预测，中国市场在未来10年内将会需要约635架公务机。
世袭1 000航程可达8334公里(4500海里)，可从北京直飞阿联酋迪拜，从香港直飞澳大利亚悉尼。飞机配装先进的航空电子配件，采用最新的电传操纵系统，为驾驶员打造了一个高度直观、专业的驾驶舱，确保飞行的安全性和平稳性。作为同级别中唯一一款拥有五舱独立客舱布局的机型，世袭1 000为多达1 9名乘客提供了宽敞空间。就像一座飞行在空中的奢华酒店，它的机载设施包括豪华双人床、站立式淋浴间以及全套音响娱乐系统。位机尾部的步入式行李舱是全球喷气公务机中最为宽敞的，飞行全程乘客可自由出入。
of all purpose-built business jets, is accessible from the main cabin throughout the flight. The options go on and on, but at Embraer it’s apparent that the customer’s every wish is their command, as the saying goes. All it takes is money and anything is possible.
As to the new Lineage 1000 owner, the Xinjiang Guanghui Industry Investment Group, founded in 1989, has businesses focused on energy development, car service and real estate development. The Group now lists total assets of $12 billion USD and some 50,000 employees. It is one of the Top 500 Chinese companies and ranks eighth among Chinese private companies. In 2011, the company had income of $1.27 billion USD, so certainly they can afford another Lineage 1000 or two. Or so Embraer’s Guan Dongyuan would hope.
Legacy 650 Embraer’s Strongest Seller In China
莱格赛650，振翅神州
Ernie Edwards, President of Embraer Executive Jets, sees this year as a possible turning point in the recovery of market growth as the company’s new models move ahead on schedule to certification. The new super-midsize Legacy 500, which rolled out last December, is scheduled to make its first flight in September, with first deliveries starting in 2014. The Legacy 500 can carry up to 12 passengers plus crew, 3,000 nautical miles (nm), while the smaller Legacy 450 has a capacity of 8 passengers plus crew. The 450’s development schedule is about a year behind that of the Legacy 500, so first deliveries should begin in 2015, closely following certification by the CAAC. According to Edwards, Embraer’s large-cabin Legacy 650 “is selling very well” and is the company’s best seller in the region. The Legacy 650 carries up to 14 passengers in three compartments, plus crew, and has an impressive range of 3,900 nautical miles.(For more information on Embraer’s full line of Executive Jets, please visit )
世袭1000的拥有者――新疆广汇实业投资（集团）有限责任公司创建于1989年。目前形成了“能源开发、汽车服务、房产置业”三大主体产业。集团现有总资产120亿美元，员工5万名。位列“中国企业500强”，并在“中国民营企业500强”中排名第8位。2011年度实现经营总收入12.7亿美元。按公司目前的实力，完全可能再度购买世袭1000，而这也正是巴航工业所期望的。
巴西航空工业公司公务机全球总裁Ernie Edwards认为2012年是市场复苏关键的一年。2011年12月新推出的超级中型公务机莱格赛500可搭载最多12名乘客，航程达到5556公里（3000海里），将于今年9月首飞，并于2014年起首批交付。而载荷8名乘客的莱格赛450预计将在2015年首批交付。据Edwards所说，巴航工业的莱格赛650是该公司在中国地区最为热销的型号。7223公里（3900海里）的航程，最多14名乘客的载荷，使这架三舱独立客舱布局设计的大型公务机广受青睐。

VITAL EQUIPMENT FOR ANY AIRCRAFT: A LITTLE BLACK BAG THAT SAVES LIVES
小小黑袋，空中急救功不可没
A Remarkable Global Emergency Medical Service
一项出色的急救服务
Why is it vital? Here’s a true story: After a long, tiring flight in his Falcon 900 jet from England to South Africa, a wealthy industrialist who had a large game preserve in the Kalahari, made a final fuel stop at Johannesburg’s Lanseria Airport. The crew quickly headed for his private airfield on the estate; a 45-minute flight. The crew and passengers noted that he didn’t look well but, being the boss, he waved them off saying he wanted to go to his home on the estate and rest. After a half hour or so his crew suggested heading back; again he ordered them to continue. On landing he staggered getting off the aircraft and finally took their advice to fly back to Lanseria and to a hospital as soon as possible. During the flight a heart attack was in progress. The aircraft made the flight in record time, but he didn’t make it to the waiting ambulance; expiring on the runway just after exiting the plane.
The cause was more than his being stubborn. The crew had no training for a medical emergency. There was no medical equipment no defibrillator on the aircraft, save for a rudimentary first-aid kit. There was no way to accurately diagnose his true condition. There was no preparation for an emergency. Otherwise, chances are excellent that he could have survived.
Black Bag In An Emergency
Basically, Black Bag referring to the traditional black bags doctors carried while making house calls back in the day provides immediate access to care guidance and diagnosis, whether a client is traveling by air, by train, by auto or even at home, anywhere in the world. After signing up for the service, Black Bag will have full knowledge of a client’s medical history and be aware of his contacts with primary care physicians and specialists.
空中急救有多重要？先来讲个真实事件：某工业家在非洲喀拉哈里沙漠拥有一片巨大的禁猎区。在一次私人飞行旅途中，他的猎鹰900公务机从英国一路飞到南非，最后在约翰斯特伯格的Lanseria机场加油。经过漫长的旅程，他满脸倦意，机舱员工也都注意到了。但他并未过多停留，就开始了下一段航程。途中，机组人员建议他返航医治，但遭拒绝。当飞机着落后，他蹒跚着从机舱走出，因为严重不适，无奈只能返回Lanseria住院。返途中他的心脏病发作，虽然飞机按时抵达，他却没能坚持到救护车赶到那刻。
虽然他很固执，但问题的原因不止于此。机舱人员没有接受过紧急医疗培训，飞机内除了最基本的急救套件，连电震发生器也没有。无法诊断他的真实病情，也没有急救的措施。否则，他生存的机会很大。
急救中的Black Bag
Black Bag，“黑袋子”这一词源于早期没有网络的时代，当时医生应电话上门就诊，随身携带黑色医疗包。如今作为一项服务，Black Bag根据顾客的个人病史，提供不同的急救套件，并由专家医生远程指导如何使用。病人无论是在旅途、家中或任何其他地方，医生都能及时开展诊断，服务是全天候的。此外，它还能提供您旅途中下一站地点的医疗相关设施信息。
If you or a family member have a medical emergency, a board-certified emergency medical doctor in the U.S. is available 24/7 to provide expert guidance and advice. But it goes beyond that. Prior to your departure, Black Bag provides complete medical-related information about your destination, including background information on all local medical treatment facilities.
How to reach Black Bag 24/7 from your destination and, of course, your own “black bag,” which is a personalizedaccording to your medical history and health statusfully equipped emergency prescription medical kit to help Black Bag personnel help their clients during emergencies. In short, the service gives the peace of mind that you’ll receive the best possible medical advice and intelligence both during an emergency and while under local care.
There is a long list of services, but the most important are: 24/7 medical call system. Maintaining protected copies of a client’s medical records. Remote site evaluation. Global network of medical centers. Travel and residence medical trauma kits. CPR, AED and First Aid instructions. The list goes on but as an old American Express card slogan advised, “Don’t Leave Home Without It.” As pertains to Black Bag Emergency Medicine, it’s very sound advice indeed. Best advice: Have one in your company or private aircraft and, most important, personnel who are trained and tested in properly using its contents. And perhaps saving a life.(For more information, visit www.blackbag.biz)
只要学会使用Black Bag为您定制的小黑袋，即可在旅途中随时寻求急救帮助。有了它，我们在任何地方都能确信始终有最好的医生站在我们身后，在紧急时刻或医疗过程中帮助我们出谋划策。
现在，我们应该对Black Bag这一完整的服务体系有了初步了解。让我们来简单总结一下它的主要特点：全天候服务（国际上习惯将之表述为24/7，即每天24小时、每周7天全线服务）；妥善维护使用者的病情记录；远程诊断；全球医疗中心联网注册；旅行及在家所需的医疗急救套件；去纤颤器（AED）的使用，心肺复苏（CPR）和急救指导。美国运通银行卡有句口号：出门别忘了带着它。我们也推荐您在公司或公务飞行时备有急救套件。同时，您的助手应当接受相关培训，能够充分用好它，让它在关键时刻立下功劳。
Superior Aviation Moving Closer To Finalize Hawker Beechcraft Deal
北京卓越航空以蛇吞象，成功竞购豪客比奇
Hawker Beechcraft announced it was in “exclusive negotiations” with Superior Aviation Beijing Co. Ltd., as a strategic combination that would preserve jobs and product lines of both Beechcraft and Hawker products. Any agreement with Superior Aviation would be subject to approval by the Committee On Foreign Investment In The U.S. (CFIUS) and other regulatory agencies.
As Robert S. Miller, CEO of Hawker Beechcraft, Inc. explained: “The agreement we have reached with Superior Aviation provides us the funding to preserve jobs as we simultaneously negotiate a potential transaction with Superior. Most important, the combination will also mean more access to the fast-growing Chinese business and general aviation marketplace, which is forecast to grow more than ten percent a year over the next 10-15 years.”
Meanwhile, Superior Aviation has committed to making two deposit payments totaling $50 million USD within 30 days to sustain Hawker Beechcraft’s jet business. (The deal with Superior would not include Hawker Beechcraft Defense Company (HBDC) which will operate as a stand-alone organization, to continue production of its highly successful T-6 military trainer program and the certification process of its AT-6 light attack aircraft.)
豪客比奇飞机公司证实已与北京卓越航空工业有限公司签署收购非他性协议，通过这一战略性合作维持豪客比奇目前Beechcraft和Hawker这两条工业生产线的运营。合作协议在美国外资投资委员会及其他相关机构的监督下进行。
豪客比奇首席执行官Robert S. Miller说：“这项协议允许我们与北京卓越航空立即开展业务商洽，使我们有足够资金维持公司目前的运营状况。经预测，中国在今后10~15年里民航及公务机市场的增长率将在每年10%以上。合作会给我们带来更多商机。”
北京卓越航空允诺在30天内共分两次支付总额5000万美元，以完成对豪客比奇公务机业务的收购计划。这项收购并不包括豪客比奇防务公司（HBDC）的军用领域，该公司为独立实体，目前极具成功的T-6训练系统及AT-6轻型攻击战斗机认证体系仍正常运营。
豪客比奇拥有业界规模最大的产品支持网络，共计100多家工厂及服务中心遍布全球。大批员工分布于堪萨斯州威奇托，阿肯色州小石城，英格兰西部的切斯特，墨西哥北部的奇瓦瓦州等地。这项协议对于保障这些员工的就业及生活至关重要。正如豪客比奇董事长Bill Boisture所说：“北京卓越航空在维持豪客比奇美国市场影响力的前提下，拓展公司在国内和国际市场上的未来业务，同时保持豪客比奇员工和管理层现状不变。”可见，这是一项双赢的合作。
Most important, the agreement will have a positive effect on the jobs and quality of life of thousands of Hawker Beechcraft employees in Wichita, Kansas; Little Rock, Arkansas; Chester, England and Chihuahua, Mexico. The company maintains the industry’s largest product support network with over 100 factory-owned and authorized service centers worldwide. Said Bill Boisture, Hawker Beechcraft’s Chairman, “Superior Aviation is committed to maintaining Hawker Beechcraft’s strong presence in the United States, retaining its current employee base and experienced management team, while positioning the company for future growth, at home and abroad.” Which is to say, it sound like a win-win proposition for both parties.
Bombardier Stays On Track With New Learjets
