  2. Revenue Passenger Kilometers (RPK) worldwide expected to outpace GDP Averaging 5.4% China, Middle East and Latin America showing most significant growth China (RPK) 8% Market Outlook 30-120 Seat Segment

  3. Mission • Competitors: Bombardier CRJ-900, C-Series and Embraer E-Jets • Market as all luxury cabin • Wider Seats (20.25”) • Longer Pitch (34”) • Faster (.85 Mach)

  4. Baseline DesignAA 241A Overview • Length: 110 ft • Sref: 750 ft2 • Span: 75 ft • Cruise Alt: 35 000 ft • MTOW: 82 000 lb • Thrust/Engine: 14 500 lb Performance • Range: 871 nm • 2nd Segment Climb: 2.7% • T.O. Field Length: 8211 ft • Landing Field Length: 4838 ft

  5. Optimization Approach Baseline Design • L/D: 13.3 • einviscid: 0.65 Optimization • einviscid • Aspect Ratio • Sweep • Supercritical Airfoil • Tail volume: • Wing position, Sh/Sref

  6. Optimized Design • Ticket Price: $241 • Aircraft Cost: $24.4 M • L/D: 16 • einviscid: 0.86

  8. Design ChangesIs/Was

  9. RJ Comparison • Best In Class: • Seat Width / Pitch • Cruise Speed

  10. Elliptical fuselage on E-Jet Conclusions • Through AA 241, we have created a feasible Regional Jet • Will the 30-120 seat market support another airplane? Continued Work • Elliptical fuselage • Advanced Structural Technology • Optimize span efficiency through twisting and add Winglets • Trade Luxury cabin vs. Ticket and Aircraft Cost and Market Edge • Wing Mounted Engine Study with Conventional Tail
