New 737 BBJ non-stop from LA to Auckland in 13h

Soumis
 
"When we left Los Angeles with full fuel, we were 21,000 pounds below our Maximum Takeoff Weight. This means that the customer can add a full VIP interior, fill all the seats and still carry full fuel and have remarkable range - something our competitor with the same class business jet simply cannot do non-stop," said Taylor.

The money here will be made in direct flights to industrial centres in China. New Zealand will play no part in the success of this machine. Brilliant move by Boeing.

This may be true but the article mentions that the reason for the flight was to have interior fitting done. They did not argue that NZ is the new bizjet hub.

Too bad the amount of fuel you need to fill a BBJ on this flight costs half my yearly salary haha

I'm in. Money shouldn't be a problem since the US taxpayer backed EX IM bank routinely lends money to third world wannabe airlines to buy Boeings lending a couple hundred mil to some good ol' boys is no step. lol

Taylor statement is wrong because A 737 full of VIP will be called a commercial flight under FAA rules so this will require an ETOPS Flight plan way different than the direct flight made by the BBJ. Adding more people in the aircraft will add more weight so more fuel to travel the same distance. For a 12 hours flight will require more foods and more drinks, again more weight.

yes, that's why Airbus doesn't sell any plane and Boeings never crash. I guess you didn't study at Harvard ?
