"Many in the media and some politicians have
misrepresented business aircraft as a symbol of excess instead of
an increasingly necessary business tool. This negative stereotype
is damaging the ability of American corporations to compete
globally and, at the same time, jeopardizing thousands of American
aviation jobs."

Marketing at Hawker Beechcraft. After initially taking a
light-hearted approach in regards to the furor against corporate
aircraft, the company goes on the offensive in its latest
advertising campaign, which targets corporations who are under
intense pressure to divest their business aircraft.
