Well, EBACE has wrapped up, and the biggest news this year surrounded shiny new airplanes and their respective new onboard technologies. Here are some highlights:
- Cessna announced its newest long-range, large-cabin jet, the Citation Longitude, and surprised many by choosing French-made engines instead of their "go-to" GE engines.
- Gulfstream flew the new G280 and G650 into EBACE, both of which are in the testing phase of development. The G280 is new and sleek, and, well...a Gulfstream -- and it stood out as the only new jet that wasn't equipped with the new G5000.
