The future market potential of business executive jet aircraft based on an extrapolation of the current market is discussed together with a definition of the overall requirements of this type of airplane.Mission performance of a representative executive jet transport, comparing a pure jet engine propulsion system with fan engines of various bypass ratio shows that a bypass ratio of about 6:1 provides the best overall solution over the mission spectrum considered.Features of Avco Lycoming's PLF Series fan engines are discussed in relation to the requirements for a business executive jet airplane.
