Adam Aircraft announced that Hainan Zhong Hang Tai General
Aviation Airlines, the Hainan, China-based operating entity of
Ameritech Aerospace, has placed a firm order for 50 Adam Aircraft A700
VLJs on May 21, 2007. The order was formalized during the European
Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition (EBACE) in Geneva,
Switzerland.
Adam Aircraft was chosen because of its handling capabilities and
innovative look. A leading designer and manufacturer of advanced
carbon composite aircraft for the twin piston and very light jet (VLJ)
markets, Adam Aircraft provides the largest cabin and greatest value
for fleet customers.
"The business plan of the Chinese company has been developed with
the goal of capitalizing on the fast-growing general aviation market
in China with fractional-share program and air taxi operation in
mind," said Jason Fan, CEO, Hainan Zhong Hong Tai General Airlines
LTD. "Due to the immediate charter and air taxi growth opportunities
in China, we made the A700 our choice because it has the largest cabin
space of all the VLJs. In addition, the aircraft combines prestige
luxury and speed with its innovative twin tails that remind people of
a Formula 1 racecar."
There is currently a serious shortage of professional pilots in
China, and aircraft management is often faced with difficulties
related to flight planning application, ground handling and
maintenance for individual aircraft owners. "The A700 owner will be
served by a professional pilot/aircraft manager who will be available
for all flights and training during a renewable six-month period. This
new revolutionary program provides the owner with a stress-free
aircraft ownership experience," stated Fan.
"We are delighted to partner with Ameritech to bring the A700 into
the China aviation market," said Jan D'Angelo, Director International
and Fleet Sales. "This order shows that the A700 is truly a worldwide
product that will bring innovation to the operators who are offering
cost efficient air travel."
Hainan Zhong Hong Tai General Airlines LTD plans to sell the A500
and A700 aircraft for Adam Aircraft and provide lease back options to
owners for air taxi operations following delivery of the roomy carbon
fiber A700 in 2008.
