What is business aviation and why do we need it?

Business jets are one of the most prominent representatives of modern aviation. However, they, being representatives of the premium business airline industry, are isolated from the mass market, which makes them a mystery to most people. This riddle surrounds business jets both with the halos of elitism and many prejudices.
In this story, we will try to figure out what the jet business industry is like and why business jets are needed.

Thank you for watching!

Business Jets are a Tool for Corporations and Business Owners and Wealthy People to buy back their time and get places more directly. Time is more valuable than money time money can be spent and lost and gained back, Time never comes back. Jets allow this time to be utilized more efficiently.

I occasionally fly private with my work, it’s amazing how much more you can achieve with a 15 minute in-person meeting compared to a 1 hour video call

As an Aicraft engineer i often fly on cargo planes from the airline who are scheduled or specialy chartered just for us engineers to unload including the tools and spareparts.
Also alot of engineers in the oil industry fly also mostly on (chartered) cargo planes.
You could say the cargo planes are the business jets for the equipment and we the engineers the hand luggage.

One of the best mini-documentary on private business aviation

Interesting topic. Business aviation is not just luxury toys, but the video explains much

[gregwest]

Surprisingly good montage, we’ll done.

Regarding the subject of "Reaching Places, " I remember when we gave executive transportation in a Beechcraft Duke B-60 where even small jets cannot give it. (By the way, we even served caviar and Dom Pérignon gave "The Level" of the customers we transported. That was México in 1976!).

An engineering firm I know has clients in places where there only small airports, they need business jets to fly their people in and out here in the American Midwest.

Hearing you talk about these skyships eases my mind.
Thank you for these awesome videos :)

I watched one video under recommendations and immediately subscribed after. Youre the best!!

Do the MD 80/90 series please! Thanks for your work!

Gulfstream G650!!! What a beautiful jet.

I think you covered nearly everything but you could emphasise the point that a company in a small city with very few connections (or even no commercial airport at all) has very slow travel options to another secondary city. e.g. Salina (KS) to Redding (CA) is a minimum 12.5 hour commercial flight (3 stops) plus an hour wasted at the first airport. As the whole day is wasted each way, a single meeting could require two nights' stay at the destination, giving a total trip time of 64 hours or so. However, the distance is just 1, 318 miles, which is a 3-hour direct flight in a decent jet. This could allow a return trip all in the same day and an overall travel time of 12 hours – 52 hours saved!

This production is outstanding, I learned so much is a short period of time and saw loads of great footage!

You forgot to mention that some companies offer business jet sharing or lease Jets. That gives the customer's another option

1:13 you've said it all: they're flying limousines... someone needs them just like someone needs a car limousine, but they're more a necessity for corporations not wanting to depend or rely on an airliner's timetable and destinations!
On a personal level, I'm more interested in the development of small, 'affordable' GA aircrafts (50k-100k) with an infrastructure built around them...

Another nicely crafted informative video from you. Thanks for clearing the clouds of doubts.

[RogerDuyong]

Bravo. Well presented with very balanced and fair proposition.

You should do an episode on British aviation jet airliners, (Hawker siddley trident, bac1-11, bae 146, and VC10)

Our firm has to send engineers to remote locations to work on power plants, oil fields & dams which are usually reachable by commercial aviation, but flying commercial doing 3 or 4 stops involving changing planes is very exhausting and we can't expect exhausted human beings to be fresh & sharp doing so, we fly them on business jets whenever possible. Just the comfort, room to stretch out, etc. makes the employee recognize that we value them as team members and are able to arrive for work refreshed since we're able to avoid long layovers and most flight delays.
