Hi all:

I am taking the example of Dr. Vijay Mallya the owner of Kingfisher and Kingfisher Airlines. What i find intruiging is that one day he is in DEL or BOM and the next day hes in SFO in his private ACJ (VT-VJM). What i want to know is how long would a flight say from DEL to SFO take. How many stopd would u have to make on the way to SFO.

Would you fly east wards or westwards? Can the ACJ fly over the Pacific ocean? Do private planes have ETOPS requirements?

regards
nitin

I want every single airport and airplane in India to be on A.net!

I am not an aviation expert, but as i know the answer is NO the private jest do not follow any ETOPS

but it is a very long journey, i don't think he would be happy spending 18hours+ on A319, he should take on of his 77W or A332 , or buy B748 for his personal use Wink

Hahaha.. looking at the interiors of his plane, i dont think he would mind.... As for the 77W and 332.. he doesnt have any! Are u sure ur not mistaking him for Naresh Goyal the owner of 9W?

FYI.. A319CJ have a max 11 or 12 hour endurance i believe. As there is a route with Privatair/Lufthansa between Germany and the USA with A319CJ to EWR and ORD from DUS and MUC.

Naresh Goyal owns 9W (a predominantly Boeing fleet) and Vijay Mallya owns IT (Airbus fleet)... smile

Question: if he flew eastbound (via China, Russia, Alaska, Washington state) would the plane need to be ETOPS? The only over-water crossing could feasibly be the Bering Strait.
