Air Alexandria, the largest airline in the Federation, introduced its first three blended-wing body, or BWB, "Ultraliners" into service today. They reportedly offer the comfort, amenities, and passenger space of the largest conventional airliners... but at a fraction of the cost, thanks to the more efficient design. Flat panel electronic screens on the ceilings of the cabin spaces give passengers in the interior a synthetic view of the skies above, thus avoiding claustrophobia. Air Alexandria plans to replace all of its long-range carriers with the Ultraliner within five years.

Transdynamics Consortium is the manufacturer of the Ultraliner and has announced that foreign sales are now open. The standard Ultraliner sells for $115 million per aircraft.

Transdynamics Consortium is more than happy to make such a deal. Since you've saved us some of the extraneous cost and time by ordering them unpainted, we can sell you two bare-skinned Ultraliners for $225 million. The aircraft are ready for delivery upon payment.

In the event that you decide to change your mind, Transdynamics is ready and willing to provide you with any of your aerospace needs.

We would like to purchase five of these aircraft for our own research and employment.
We will wire you the $575 million upon your confirmation.

Thank you.


OOC: IS that a real plane!?!?
Or is someone good with photoshop?
Also...my nation is actually from April...just got ressurected...so I do have the money

After much debate, it has been decided that we would like to place our original order of two unpainted BWB's again. Thank you

Back to a license.

Transdynamics Consortium would like to thank the launch customers of the export Ultraliner, WeekendLazyness, Ehdhora, and Free Rumania, by converting for each nation one Ultraliner into a National Executive Transport -- free of charge. The NETliners will be delivered in one year (tomorrow, OOCly).

Back to a license.

Licensing is available for $800 million and 5% of the profits from the sales of all license-built Ultraliners.

OOC: I was wondering how long it would be before someone made a post selling those. Raysia's been selling 'em for a while.

OOC: I've been following the development of BWBs for years. I never saw high-fidelity pictures that I was happy with until the latest issue of Popular Science was delivered to my house today. :) After I wiped the drool away, my second thought was... "Those would be perfect for NS!"

OOC: Yes, the pictures throughout that issue are amazingly clear...even for PopSci. I'm wondering if they have a new program or if they just hired a graphic artist who really knows his stuff. I've noticed that the last few issues have been packing better pictures.

OOC: So super nice that everyone should buy one! *bump*

IC: Transdynamics Consortium is now offering a commercialized variant of the National Executive Transport Ultraliner for the ultimate in business travel for the world leader, corporate executive, or non-governmental organization on the go. Each "Starliner" is customized to the needs of the client and is equally as efficient and capable as the more standard Ultraliner. Selling price varies from $125 million to $273 million, depending on upgrades and features.

The Omzians have just purchased 10 Ultraliners for their military. It is a versatile platform and easily adapted for your purposes, as well. The Ultraliner is the ideal platform for commercial, civilian, and governmental applications.

OOC: These are seriously cool.

IC:

King James IV has decided to establish a system of cheap flights to areas around the world for the McLeodian people, and wishes to purchase some 75 of these craft to start off the state-run airline, until the business takes off, and starts making profits.

Given the long history of mutually beneficial cooperation between the people of the Federation and McLeod and the willingness to purchase in bulk, Transdynamics Consortium is willing to provide the 75 airframes at an individual cost of $105 million each. The total value of the sale is $7.875 billion. Fifteen (15) airframes a year will be delivered over a 5-year period.

OOC: Finally someone using the BWB concept first created by McDonnell Douglas! :D

IC: No thanks, I'll just stick to the 747-400. :D

OOC: Do you have any good links about blended-wing aircraft? They look pretty cool.

The luxury model can be as simple as having first-class accomodations throughout the entire aircraft or as luxurious as a flying hotel with a small casino lounge or as extravagant as installing an extremely oversized jacuzzi on one deck or as classy as the venerable Air Force One. Cost and safety are the only limiting factors.

The order for 20 standard airframes is registered and ready to begin deliveries upon payment.

OOC: Not off hand, but you should be able to find a lot of info by running a Google search.

Production rights, due to the overwhelming success of the Ultraliner, have gone up in cost to USD one billion plus 20% of all revenues from all sales - including domestic and internal purchases.

The Ultraliner continues its successful service in airlines and national fleets around the world!

OOC: Bump. :)

Airlines the world over use the Ultraliner. To commemorate its long and successful carrer, Transdynamics Consortium is now allowing licensing deals for overseas production rights.

Transdynamics Corporation is proud to announce the introduction of the Ultraliner II after the amazing production and service run of the original. The new version still offers the comfort, amenities, and passenger space of the largest conventional airliners, but incorporates the ultra-efficient blended-wing body design and the quietest quantum nucleonic engines available. Now, the service range is only limited by thermal tolerances on the engines and crew fatigue. With automated flight controls and an integrated crew cabin, an Ultraliner II could conceivably only land for routine maintenance! The original flat panel electronic screens on the ceilings of the cabin spaces are now replaced with flexible Organic LED screens to allow air carriers to create internal spaces and vistas of their own design. Air Alexandria - the launch customer for the Ultraliner - plans to replace its entire conventional fleet with the Ultraliner II and has placed an order for 220 airframes.

Official Order
Ancient Terra Airlines
Department of Airframe Acquisitions

Ancient Terra Airlines (NSSE: ATA), citing the fantastic manner with which the BWB Ultraliner has been received by our customers, wishes to make a declaration of intent to purchase 480 new BWB Ultraliner IIs, pending confirmation of our order by the Transdynamics Corporation. Known in ATA service as the BWB Houou no Umi Ultraliner configuration (as a means of furthering aircraft recognition among our customers), the 110 aircraft purchased by ATA 3 years ago have been a driving force behind our rise to a 99+% Customer Satisfaction Rating in recent times.

Passengers and flight crew alike have complimented the Ultraliner's quiet, efficient operation, her extremely smooth flights and the ease of boarding and deplaning. These have combined to give us more on-time arrivals and departures than any other airline in Haven, as well as highly-competitive ticket prices. Most important to our success, however, have been changes made to our seating classes; these revisions were made possible by the massive internal volume available in the BWB.

The above have given ATA great confidence in the BWB Ultraliner, and we enthusiastically look forward to introducing the new Ultraliner II (tentatively labeled the BWB Kouryuu no Umi Ultraliner II) to our customers.

(ooc: Please forgive this thread resurrection; I'm looking to turn ATA into a true Nationstates entity and I figure that the first order of business would be to expand our fleet. The BWB gives me plenty of room to play around. ^^)

The order from Ancient Terra Airlines, a favored customer, is confirmed.
