NBAA Deal May Be Final Offer
If you operate a
Gulfstream II, now may be the time to invest in Blended
Winglet™ Technology. New pricing of $459,500 installed, will
be in effect at NBAA in Orlando (FL) next week. Five Blended
Winglet shipsets are currently available. But, after that, there
will be at a least 6-month lead time for additional shipsets.
"We've found that operators who are ready to invest in Blended
Winglet Technology want their winglets right now," says Aviation
Partners Inc. CEO Joe Clark. "Once the five GII Blended Winglet
shipsets we have in stock are sold that could be it. To start up
production again we will need orders for at least 10 shipsets. The
lead time for additional shipsets will be considerable and we may
be closing down production of GII Blended Winglet shipsets in 2004.
If you have ever wanted Winglets for your straight wing GII, now is
the time to order."
Over the past 10 years over 68% of the available GII fleet has
been upgraded with Blended Winglet Technology and re-branded as
Performance Enhanced IISPs. One of the most successful aerodynamic
enhancement programs in the history of aviation, Blended Winglets
boost range of the venerable GII by over 7% while improving climb
performance, initial cruise altitude and handling characteristics
along with resale and aesthetic value.
"The future is on the wing," says Aviation Partners Inc. Senior
Vice President of Sales and Marketing Dick Friel. "If you're a GII
operator, however, it may be on your wings only if you act right
now."
