Han Taik Aerospace has unveiled its latest civil aviation project and is accepting orders.
(If wanted I can put it into a colour scheme of your choosing.)

So what do you think??

Anyone got any coomments, orders.. anything??

First of I like the idea and design.

I think with such massive engines, it should either be a bigger size or hold more passengers...

ViZionair wishes to order three of these planes. If they are pleased, more will be purchased.

They are offering $550 million USD per plane, however, for a total of $1,650,000,000 USD total.

OOC: The engines arnt really meant to be that big its just that I cant get them any smaller without it looker really bad. When you look at the picture just try to imagine the same plane but with normal sized engines.

To: ViZionair

Han Taik Aerospace would be glad to furfill your needs, all three aircraft will be completed and ready for service in two NS years.
We hope you find them excellent.

Can they be converted in to bombers?

someone designs a non-military thing for once, and what happens, someone tries to use it to fight with. whats that say about us?
good plane, but a bit too big for my uses. otherwise i'd buy one.

The engines aren't to big, they just look bigger because they're all together.

It's got the right amount of passengers to in my opinion, and i think you're going way over top on the range it can travel with such small wings to hold the fuel, and such powerful engines to power, but apart from that, good design there mate.

Cost per unit: 649 million USD

We'll take a 1000 for troop transport. If we were to modify them so that it was all Economy with lots of leg room and storage space how many more passengers would that fit.

Half the money has been wired.

Thank you, Guon Ha. We will wire our payment to you immediately.

Er.. no they are a civillian passenger jets, though I think if you really wanted to they could be AWACS planes, But i'm not sure how good they would be at that.

Ah thats where this design is really good. The whole plane is a flying wing with the exception of the parts where the engines are mounted. This gives much greater lift and therefore increase fuel economy.

To: Leafanistan

Though 1000 units will take a very long time to produce this order we would like to supply. With all economy seating we would expect that the plane is capable of carrying up 740 people but with a reduced range of 17,000 km.

Your order will take nine NS years to complete for service with 11 planes ready each year.
Thank you for ordering our plane.

Bump

bump anybody??

OOC:
Very evry nice design you have here, and its not an Uber boomer o doom either!

I have a few quiestions/issues:
Airports: what exactly does this need in terms of runways? is it in the same sort of feild as the A380 or does the delta/flying winf layout require a logn er take off/landing roll? also i assume that it needs fairly specialist airbridges and gates due to the very none standard shape.

Subsonic flight: Since most Civil air administrations forbid supersonic flight over land subsonic performance still retains a large degree of importance how well does this aircraft operate in the subsonic region? (unless you intend it operate like concord and spend msot of it's time over water, a plane like this would do well in an island nation in crookfur but be a bit useless for land locked nations or palces where the main routes would go over land for any significant section of the journey).


Just a few niggles on an other wise very ncie aircraft.

The runway length would actually be a bit shorter due to the flying wing design but since the plane carries more passengers it is about the same takeoff distance.

While certainly capable of subsonic flight the J-900's wing design is optimised for supersonic speeds.
This means that while travelling at less than the speed of sound the aircraft is not operating at its most effecient.
This however can be counterd by flying at lower altitudes to obtain more lift and therefore make up for the ineffeciencies.

The J-900 is also capable of flying much higher than normal where it supersonic speed would have little effect over land but again this means that it is not as effecient as it would be at a normal flight path.

Arterium Airlines would like to purchase 3 of these planes, painted two different shades of blue; light blue as the main color, and dark blue as the trim color. Thank you, the 1,947,000,000 USD will be wired upon confirmation.

Yours Truly,
Culleret Tironiem, CEO

Your order has been accepted and will take one NS year to complete for service.

Our graphic artists have meanwhile come up with conceptualization of the finished product.

To: Han Taik Aerospace
From: Department of the Republic Air Force

In interest of our Civilian Population, we would greatly enjoy the possibility of having, for the first time, a specific, specialized, and unique design for passenger planes. This would be a great achievement for our Airliner Industry, making trips between cities and continents easier.

We would like to ask if it would be possible if we could purchase Private Production Rights, because we find no use in buying only three models and not being able to build more for ourselves. Now, you may have cought up on other transmissions, however we say this: Private Production Rights is basically saying that we can mass produce said product, for a high price, yet NOT sell its design or anything about it to ANYONE else, whatsoever.

If not, then we would definitly buy a few for our fleet, however we have specific plans, if allowed Private Production Rights, to create a Starliner version.

We hope to hear from you,
Jack Paladin
Chief General of the Republic Air Force

OOC:

Basically, if allowed such, I have a proboards board in which to post specs of the design. I would NOT sell it to anyone else, and to assure this I would love to copy and paste your copyright. If allowed, that is.

Anyways, like I said, nice design. :)

To: Angonian Department of the Republic Air Force

Your offer is welcomed by us and we would be willing to give private production rights to your country. The cost would be however great at 498,960,000,000 USD.
If you would be prepared to pay this then a deal would be achievable.

On the subject of a starliner project the J-900 has been considered a step towards a viable space plane and many of its features would be useful in a fully fledged space plane.

We will gladly pay as much as needed to purchase this craft for our personal civilian and military uses. Our engineer's already have plans for a gunship version, and they are excited to hear they will be able to go through with their plans for such. Any other variant will take time, but in the end we are happy to see you are open to our purchase of Private Production Rights.

This will most likely be the last purchase we make this year.

Thank You for your business.

Just wanted to let ya see, and if I can, can I save your pic to my photobucket account? Don't want to loose the image.

Greetings,
The Rolatian government and RolatiaAir are very interested in this new design, and believe that it will be a very useful plane for:
1) Foreign affairs
2) Commercial airlines
We shall therefore be ordering 100 of these aeroplanes in a white with blue trim colour scheme if possible. If this is not possible, please contact us through telegram. We have wired through $64.9B to your account to pay for the airlines. We thank you for your co-opeartion and hope these planes will prove very effective
