Don't Like that Long Order List?
Have We Got a BBJ for You

For Sale: Brand new BBJ, low mileage, new upholstery. Must be seen to be believed. Available April 15. Asking $54.5 million.

It's not often that exhibitors come to a show with an airplane to take away, but that's almost the case with Jet Aviation (Booth A405) which is helping Flight Center of Boeing Field, Seattle, sell its brand new BBJ.

"We bought the BBJ green and it is being completed by Jet Aviation at Basel," Flight Center principal Ned Landers told Show News here at Asian Aerospace. "But circumstances changed, so we're putting it up for sale."

The green aircraft is now white, ready for the next customer to apply his or her own trim. And hangar rent is due from the middle of April, when, as far as Jet Aviation is concerned, the completion is completed.

The BBJ is configured for 19 passengers. The four-compartment interior includes lounge with guest lav, office with conference table, and bedroom with queen-size bed, hang-up closet and shower.
Interior woodwork is California white oak; fabrics and leathers are finished in light and medium color earth tones; and all metal hardware and trim is finished in brushed satin silver.

The aircraft received press coverage last year when Flight Center became the first customer to ask Jet Aviation to fit a complete plywood mockup interior before deciding on its final cabin configuration.
Ned Landers can be reached via telephone: +1-206-669-8754.
