Feature: Boeing Business Jet

Ever dreamed of sleeping in the clouds, living in the air with all the convenience? Well dream no more! Ladies and gentlemen, meet the Boeing Business Jet.

The Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) is the ultimate in VIP private jet travel. The BBJ provides unprecedented cabin space and the flexibility to configure the interior so that it matches your personal work and travel preferences to the last detail.

The BBJ combines the Next Generation 737-700’s airframe combined with the strengthened wing, fuselage centre section and landing gear of the larger and heavier 737-800, with three to 10 belly auxiliary fuel tanks.

It features the Next Generation 737 advanced two crew six LCD screen EFIS avionics flightdeck, equipped with embedded dual GPS, TCAS, enhanced GPWS and Flight Dynamics head-up guidance system. Following their certification in September 2000, winglets became a standard option

 

Here’s what it looks like:

 

This aircraft usually seats between 25 and 50 passengers within a luxurious configuration. This may include a master bedroom, a washroom with showers, a conference/dining area, and a living area.

The latest versions of the BBJs include configurations based on the Boeing 777, Boeing 787 and the Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental.

 

Based on the hugely successful Boeing 737, the BBJ enables you to cross continents, with a maximum range of ten hours flying time. Despite its size and range, the BBJ’s take off requirement is only a little more than normal long range private jets, thus retaining good airport accessibility.
