OverviewBusiness Case
Customer Needs State of the Market: 2058
CompetitionPotential MissionsRequirement DevelopmentBenchmarking DataConclusion
2
DC-3, Historical Perspective Range Capacity Reliability
Success of the DC-3 Business Model Captured a large Market Share Technology expanded borders of flight
3
Provide a versatile aircraft with medium range and capacity to meet the needs of a commercial aircraft market still expanding in the year 2058
Incorporate the latest in technology to provide reliability, efficiency, while fulfilling the need for an environmentally friendly transportation system
Possess the ability to operate at nearly any airfield
4
Airlines Short Runway Capability
▪ Hub and Spoke System▪ Evolution of Flight Routes
Moderate Passenger Capacity▪ Lower Cost than Jumbo Jets▪ Promotes Full Flights
Appropriate Range▪ Versatility in Flight Routes▪ Cross-Continental not Required
5
Charters Small Airport Capability
▪ Demand to avoid hubs▪ Increase speed of travel
Generous amount of Passengers and Cargo▪ Enough space to carry an entire travel party
in one plane▪ Extra Space = Extra Cost
6
Passenger Capacity Large enough for medium-medium high
demand travel routes Small enough for chartered flights
Range Long enough to fulfill most passenger needs Shorter range reduces overall aircraft cost
Short Runway Capability allows flexibility in flight routings for all customers
7
Chart From Embraer 8
Immediate (2008) demand for medium capacity aircraft
28,600 aircraft delivered in the next 20 years (Boeing)
56,000 aircraft delivered in the next 50 years
Majority of aircraft will be regional jet or single aisle
Our Aircraft Fills gap between Regional and Single-Aisle ESTOL capability Generous Range
Expect to capture ~15% of market (8,500 aircraft)

What it can do Communicate information over great distances Give the illusion of people worldwide being in
the same room Be scheduled easily and activated quickly Useful for meetings
What it can’t do Provide perfect interaction Compensate for time zones
Will not replace business travel, even on a global scale
12
Automobiles Alternative Energy Sources Artificial Intelligence Vehicle Control Faster Driving Speeds Cannot achieve Aircraft Speeds, Safety, or
Range Rail
Higher Speeds Low Environmental Impact Excellent over Short Ranges Cannot cross larger bodies of water Speeds still too low over longer ranges Infrastructure expansion slow and costly
