"The Laird Super Solution was a racing biplane designed and built for the Cleveland Speed Foundation by E. M. “Mattie” Laird. It had a large radial engine and an extremely faired windshield, and was similar in appearance to the Gee Bee. The Super Solution was an advanced design for the time because of the relatively clean aerodynamic construction and tight engine cowling. Work on the LC-DW Super Solution began on July 8, 1931. The aircraft was test flown on August 22 by Mattie Laird at Fishborn Field in Chicago, near the Laird Factory. The Super Solution was fitted with complete instrumentation for cross country and blind flying. It featured a new fresh air system that consisted of two vents placed at the leading edge of the top wing, well outside the range of engine exhaust, which channeled fresh air into the cockpit. Laird provided two different engines for the Super Solution. For the cross-country Bendix Race, where steady power at high altitudes would be the key, the airplane would use a direct-drive engine. For the closed-course Thompson Race, a 3:2 geared-drive engine would give the best flat-out power. Jimmy Doolittle and the Super Solution won the Bendix Race with an elapsed time of 9 hours, 10 minutes, and 21 seconds. During the Thompson Race, however, the engine encountered problems and Doolittle had to land the Super Solution after the seventh lap to avoid a complete engine failure. "

"The McDonnell Douglas DC-10 is an American three-engine medium- to long-range widebody airliner, with two engines mounted on underwing pylons and a third engine at the base of the vertical stabilizer. The model was a successor to the company's DC-8 for long-range operations, and competed in the same markets as the Airbus A300, Boeing 747, and Lockheed L-1011 Tristar, which has a similar layout to the DC-10. Production of the DC-10 ended in December 1988 with 386 delivered to airlines and 60 to the U.S. Air Force as air-to-air refueling tankers, designated the KC-10 Extender. The DC-10 was succeeded by the related McDonnell Douglas MD-11 which entered service in 1990. DC-10-30 (164 built) was the most common model built with General Electric CF6-50 turbofan engines and larger fuel tanks to increase range and fuel efficiency, as well as a set of rear center landing gear to support the increased weight. It was the second long-range model after the -40 and very popular with European flag carriers. Produced from 1972 to 1988, the DC-10-30 was delivered to 38 different customers, amongst which Lufthansa (11), Swissair (11), VARIG (11), KLM (10) and Iberia (9) were the largest. "

"DC-3 is generally considered as the most famous airliners and it earned the title of ""The only replacement for a DC-3 is another DC-3."" On July 1, 1933, the DC-1 made its first successful flight. TWA evaluated the DC-1 and additional requirements resulted a fourteen-seat DC-2 with a more powerful engine. The DC-2's maiden flight was on May 11, 1934. There were 108 DC-2s produced. In 1934, it set a record of a coast-to-coast time of 13 hrs and 4 min. In the mid-1930s, the DC-3 incorporates all of the technological advances, a reliable, high-power air-cooled piston enignes, a variable-pitch metal propellers, a retractable landing gear, a duraluminum-alloy fuselage and wings and the electronic autopilot. It laso incorporates two 1,200-horsepower Pratt and Whitney engines and it cruised at a remarkable 145 knots at altitudes of up to 10,000 feet. It could carry at least twenty one passengers. The DC's maiden flight was on December 17, 1935, which was the 32nd anniversary of the Wright Brother's first slight. The DC-3 was designated by many names, infact, all are considered their official names; its manufacturer called it the ""Skytrain"" and airlines simply called i the ""Three""; the US Army called it the ""C-47""; the US Navy called it the ""R4D"" and was designated as ""Dakota"" by the British. It was referred by many pilots and was fondly called as the ""Gooney Bird."" It was considered to be one of the four most significant weapons of the War."

"The Cessna Citation X is currently the fastest business jet and flying civilian airplane in the world with a traveling speed of up to 605 mph. In October 1990, the National Business Aviation Association Convention in New Orleans announced the development of the Citation X. The certification of the Cessna Citation X was delayed several times. The main reasons for the delays were the avionics and the engine integration failure to the aircraft, the engines also didn't pass the bird strike criteria and directional stability challenges. The certification was finally approved on June 3, 1996. In June 1996, the first Citation X was delivered to Arnold Palmer, a golfer and avid Cessna customer. The Citation X continued to set speed records. In January 1, 2002, all Citation X underwent upgrade and the main characteristics of the upgraded version are a 5% increase in thrust, a 400 lbs increase in maximum take-off weight and improved Honeywell avionics. The Citation X incorporates a number of innovative design features; large diameter of the engine intakes, reduced noise from the engines and improved fuel efficiency. The Citation X was also the first aircraft from Cessna to use a Rolls-Royce engine and fully-integrated avionics. Despite Cessna's long history of building business jets and the number of aircraft in the Citation family, the Citation X was a completely new design, not a derivative of earlier Citations. The Cessna Citation X is currently the fastest civilian aircraft being flown, though the Concorde and Tupolev Tu-144 were both faster, but they are no longer in service "

"The Cessna Citation Mustang is a business jet built by Cessna Aircraft Company at their Kansas production facility. It was a light business jet, hence it was commonly referred to as a very light jet (VLJ). The Mustang, like any other small business jet, is certified to fly without a co-pilot. The Mustang was first flown on April 23, 2005. On September 8, 2006, Mustang received full type certification from the Federal Aviation Administration. In fact, the Mustang was the first of its class to receive full type certification, first to receive certification to fly into known-icing conditions, the first VLJ to be delivered to a customer, thus, making Cessna the world's first fully certified, new-generation entry level business jet. The Mustang features a wide passenger door and a large eye-level window for natural ambiance and externally accessed luggage space in the front and rear cabin. The Mustang is powered by two Pratt and Whitney Canada PW615F engines with dual FADECs for efficient fuel consumption. The Mustang has a top speed of 340 kn and a range of 1,150 nautical miles and a service ceiling of 41,000 feet which is well suited for getting above weather and commercial traffic for more efficient operations. Cessna Citation Mustang's sales have climbed to 250 units, with the majority coming from international customers, selling out production well into 2009. Cessna plans to enhance its sales and marketing efforts by increasing its domestic and international sales force, conducting intensive demonstration tours with multiple aircraft on a worldwide basis and stepping up its marketing campaign in response to the very high level of interest in the Citation Mustang expressed by customers globally.

"The A-36 Bonanza Beechcraft model is a general aviation aircraft introduced in 1947 by the Beech Aircraft Corporation. As of 2007, it is still being produced by Hawker Beechcraft. There are more than 17,000 Bonanzas that have been built. The A-36 Bonanza Beechcraft model was designed by a team led by Ralph Harmon. All Bonanzas including A-36 Bonanza Beechcraft Model share an unusual feature: the yoke and rudder pedals are interconnected by a system of flexible bungees which assist in keeping the airplane in coordinated flight during turns. The bungee system allows the pilot to make coordinated turns using the yoke alone, or with minimal rudder input, during cruise flight. The twin-engine variant of the Bonanza is called the Baron, whereas the Twin Bonanza is a different design and not based on the original single-engine Bonanza fuselage. The A-36 Bonanza Beech Model has an improved deluxe interior, a new fuel system, higher take-off weight, from 1985 fitted with a Continental IO-550-BB engine and re-designed instrument panel and controls, 2128 built and it is modified with the Tradewind Turbine's turboprop conversion."

"The Beechjet400 or the Hawker 400, designed by Raytheon's Beech Aircraft Company subsidiary, now part of Hawker Beechcraft, is a small twin-engine corporate aircraft. Deliveries of the Beechjet began in June 1986, with low rate production continuing until that model was replaced by the Model 400A, which was delivered from November 1990. The Beechjet 400A integrated a quantity of developments over its predecessor. A higher max takeoff weight and superior operating ceiling enhanced performance, while repositioning the rear fuselage fuel tank enlarged cabin volume. The flight deck features Collins Pro Line 4 EFIS with three colour displays - two primary flight displays (PFD) and a multifunction display (MFD) with a second MFD optional. The 400A incorporates the added measures of strength and reliability that lead to the durability, dispatch reliability and low life-cycle costs that prompted the United States Air Force to select the 400A as the T-1A Jayhawk trainer for pilots. With its advanced avionics systems, elegant crafted interior and high efficiency environmental, the Beechjet 400A has remained the light jet of choice for those who embrace refined cabin accommodations and seek superior engineering. The Raytheon Hawker 400XP is the fastest light jet business jet of choice in the light-jet market. Powered by fuel-efficient Pratt & Whitney Canada engines, its innovative design includes a well-equipped galley, four-place center-club seating and the largest cabin of any comparable aircraft. "

"The Aérospatiale-BAC Concorde supersonic transport (SST) was the more successful of the only two supersonic passenger airliners to have ever operated commercially (the Tupolev Tu-144 being the other). First flown in 1969, its service commenced in 1976 and continued for 27 years. It flew regular transatlantic flights from London Heathrow (British Airways) and Paris Charles de Gaulle (Air France) to New York JFK and Washington Dulles, flying these routes at record speeds, in under half the time of other airliners. It also set many other records, including the official FAI “Westbound Around The World” and “Eastbound Around the World” world air speed records. British Airways (BA) is the largest airline of the United Kingdom and one of the largest in Europe. It was one of only two operators of the Concorde supersonic airliner (the other being the state-owned Air France), with a daily service between Heathrow and New York JFK. BA used the aircraft to win business customers, guaranteeing a certain number of Concorde upgrades in return for corporate accounts with the airline, a key factor in winning business from transatlantic competitors. Concorde made large operating profits for British Airways for much of its service life. British Airways, simultaneously with Air France, inaugurated the world's first supersonic passenger service with Concorde in January 1976. While commercial jets take seven hours to fly from New York to Paris, the average supersonic flight time on the transatlantic routes was just under 3.5 hours. In transatlantic flight, Concorde travelled more than twice as fast as other aircraft, making them appear to be flying backwards. Up to 2003, Air France and British Airways continued to operate the New York services daily. "

"The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is a four-seat, single engine, high-wing airplane. In the late 1960s, Cessna re-engined its already highly successful 172 four seater with the four cylinder Lycoming O-320. These o-320 powered models were the most successful to bear the 172 model number (and the Skyhawk name for the Deluxe option), as they were in production during GA's golden years, the 1970s. Higher performance 172s include the R172 Hawk XP, Continental lO-360 and the 135kW Lycoming O-360 powered, retractable undercarriage 172RG Cutlass. The 172 was also produced under license by Reims in France as the F172 and FR172 The Cessna 172, considering its longevity and popularity, is the most successful mass produced light aircraft in history. The first production models were delivered in 1956 and they are still in production as of 2007; more than 43,000 have been built. The Cessna 172 started life as a tricycle landing gear upgrade from the taildragger Cessna 170 and the early 172 were similar in appearance to the 170, with the same straight aft fuselage and tall gear legs, although the 172 had a straight vertical tail while the 170 had a rounded fin and rudder. Cessna 172's first flight was on November 1955. It became an overnight sales success and over 1,400 were built in 1956. More Cessna 172s have been built than any other aircraft and probably, Cessna is the most popular flight training aircraft in the world"

"The Cessna 206 Stationair is a six-seat single-engine general aviation aircraft with fixed landing gear used in commercial air service and for personal use. It is also used for aerial photography, skydiving and other utility purposes. Originally developed from the popular retractable-gear Cessna 210, the 206 has a powerful engine, rugged construction and a large cabin that has made it a popular bush plane. Cessna describes it as “the sport utility vehicle of the air”. It is supported by an active aircraft type club, the Cessna Pilots Association. The 206 was introduced in 1964 and built until 1986, when Cessna halted production of its single-engine product. It was reintroduced in 1998 and remains in production in 2007. There are many sub-variants, and the total number produced between 1964 and 2004 was 6,581 aircraft. The original 1964 model was the U206. The “U” designation indicated “utility” and this aircraft was equipped with a pilot side door and large clamshell rear door serving the back two rows of seats, allowing easy loading of oversized cargo. From 1964 to 1969, it was known as the “Super Wagon”. From 1970 it was named the “Stationair”, a contraction of “Station Wagon of the Air”. Production of the U206 was halted in 1986 was halted when Cessna stopped manufacturing all piston engine aircraft. A total of 5,208 U206s had been manufactured. "

"The Boeing 757 is a medium-range, transcontinental commercial airplane manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes and was designed for Eastern Airlines and British Airways to replace the Boeing 727. The 757 was originally designated as the 7N7. It has transatlantic range and was one of the earliest ETOPS rated airliners. The 757 utilizes many of the same components as the wide body 767, aircrews and maintenance personnel can quickly be cross-trained from one type to another. 757 has the same fuselage diameter as the previous 707, 727 and 737. The 757 was the first Boeing airliner launched with non-US engines, Rolls-Royce RB211-535 but another option was later offered, the Pratt & Whitney PW2000. The 757-200 is the definitive version of 757 and forms the majority of 757. It was manufactured in freighter and passenger-freight combi versions. In the late 1990's, some 757-200 airliners were converted to freighters. Majority of 757-200s are found in domestic service with U.S. carriers. In the mid-90's, sales of the 757 went down dramatically."

"B767-400 Delta Boeing is a stretched development of the popular 767-300ER, designed to replace early A300, A310 and 767 twins used on transcontinental services and DC-10-30s and L-1011 trijets used for intercontinental work. It competes with the A330-200. Compared to the 767-300, the 767-400ER's wing features 2.34m (7ft 8in) long raked wingtips which improve aerodynamic efficiency. Winglets were originally considered but the wingtip extensions proved more efficient. The wing is actually made from increased gauge aluminum with thicker spars. The B767-400 Delta Boeing features a 777 style advanced flight deck with six color multifunction displays, which can present information in the same format as earlier 767s, allowing a common type certificate. The all new passenger interior is similar to that in the 777. Other features include common engines with the 767-300, a new APU, new tailskid and increased weights. The 767 sold very well in from late 1980s to the late 1990s, with a decrease during the recession in the early 1990s. After strong sales in 1997, sales have declined significantly, due to the economic recession of the early 2000s, increased competition from Airbus, and the recent emergence of a direct replacement program, the Boeing 787. Boeing has kept the line open due to KC-767 tanker program, which use the 767 airframe. The Boeing 767-400 Delta Boeing is the final extended variant that was launched in 1997 on an order for Delta Air Lines and Continental Airlines to replace their aging Lockheed L-1011 and McDonnell Douglas DC-10 fleets. Orders were also placed by Kenya Airways and ILFC but these were eventually canceled. It was again stretched 21.1 ft for a total of 201.4 ft. It also saw a wingspan increase of 14.3 feet over the previous two variants and is the only 767 variant to also feature ""raked"" wingtips, which increase fuel efficiency. It was introduced into service in 2000."
