Eclipse jets in business aviation

The company “Eclipse Aviation” was founded in 1998 by former Microsoft manager Vern Raburn. Bill Gates was a major stakeholder in the Eclipse project. The company is headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA.

Eclipse 500 became the first of a new class of Very Light Jet. This group of jets opened a new chapter in the history of business aviation. Eclipse Jets, capable of landing even on the shortest runways, became the most popular means of private travel in the early 2000s. A large number of such jets belonged to DayJet Services (Florida) and were used for air taxi services.

A prototype for this jet, Eclipse 400, was built in 2007. The four-seat model was even lighter and had a single-engine. The jet was designed for a 2.177 kg takeoff weight and could cover 2.315 km at a speed of up to 612 km/h. Unfortunately, an almost toy vehicle never entered production, although this model was in great demand.

“Eclipse Aviation” didn’t survive the global financial crisis that struck in the second half of the 2000s, and went bankrupt in 2008. Its successor was the company “Eclipse Aerospace”, which purchased all factories and other assets of the company and continued to produce very light jets under the same brand: Eclipse 500/550 and more powerful Eclipse 700 Canada with the new wing shape. In cooperation with the company “One Aviation Corporation”, “Eclipse Aviation” started to serially produce very light single-engine turboprops Kestrel K-350. In March 2020, “One Aviation Corporation” was acquired by the Chinese company “Citiking International”.

Stages of flight preparation

A business jet flight is carefully prepared. The whole organization of the flight consists of several stages:

1. Planning. At this stage, the request received from the customer is processed, the most suitable aircraft are selected, legal issues and flight safety issues are resolved;
2. A contract is concluded. The contract specifies the obligations of the parties, the route schedule, departure dates, and cost. The agreement is drawn up in two copies, the first remains with the air broker, the other is for the client. The payment is possible in any way that suits the customer;
3. Ensuring the flight. This is one of the most important stages of flight organization. The air broker coordinates the receipt of slots, submits requests to the aviation services for departure and landing, looks for suitable VIP terminals;
4. Flying in ideal conditions. After signing the contract, passengers of charter flights are only required to arrive at the airport on time, board, and spend time in the sky in a pleasant atmosphere.

If necessary, air brokers will arrange a transfer from the arrival airport, book a hotel or find the best accommodation in the private sector.

Additional services

Traveling on a rented business jet is convenient, fast, and comfortable. You can further improve flight conditions and safety in the sky by ordering a number of additional services, such as:

1. Catering – individual meals on board. The passenger can tell us the wishes for the menu, and we will fully fulfill them;
2. Internet - we organize a stable connection throughout the flight;
3. Comprehensive service in VIP halls;
4. Transfer at any airport on the type of transport that suits the passenger – a car, a helicopter, a yacht;
5. Booking hotels and luxury accommodation on the islands and with private property owners;
6. Treatment of the plane with anti-icing liquid.

Additional requests are discussed separately and are also prescribed in the contract. Each client of our company can count on complete anonymity and on the help of a personal manager at all stages of the organization of the flight.

 

 

How to pay for a flight and refund money for a failed flight

Payment for the aircraft lease is carried out after the signing of the contract. You can deposit cash or make a wire transfer. In some situations, an invoice is more convenient, but in any case, our company allows the client to choose the payment method that is more profitable for him/her.

If the scheduled flight is canceled at the client’s request, the funds won’t be returned in full. This is quite understandable since certain costs for the organization of the flight were already on the part of the air broker. However, our company tries to make sure that the client loses as little as possible. In those situations, when the lease is canceled due to our fault, which fortunately happens extremely rarely, the funds are returned in full.

You can find out all the conditions for renting business jets by phone or by sending a request to our company's email.
