Four Corners Aviation of Dallas, Texas, will market the extra-large cabin ACJ TwoTwenty as the first of an all-new business jet to its clientele for the 'Freedom by Four Corners Aviation' product titled Corporate Jet as a Service (CJaaS).

'Freedom by Four Corners Aviation' as well as the ACJ TwoTwenty aim both to be industry-disruptive products. The concept is creating a new value proposition to the business and private aviation market by providing all the benefits of their own scalable aviation department – with a customized and fully integrated ACJ TwoTwenty financed solution, with crew, operations and supplemental lift, but without the hassles of ownership, such as administration, accounting and cost variabilities. It opens up business aviation to a wider clientele by providing an innovative and packaged solution.

Four Corners Aviation, assisted by Mente Group, its sister company, along with ACJ, will market the extra-large cabin ACJ TwoTwenty to the clientele for the 'Freedom by Four Corners Aviation' product. The ACJ TwoTwenty is the first all new business jet dedicated to the 'Freedom by Four Corners Aviation' program entitled Corporate Jet as a Service (CJaaS).

Well Suited to North American Market

"The ACJ TwoTwenty's superior cabin space and ability to connect London to Los Angeles directly all year long make it an excellent choice for the North American market," said Brian Proctor, chief executive officer of Aquila Aviation Ventures, which holds Four Corners Aviation and Mente Group. "Furthermore, it's a true North American aircraft assembled in Canada, engines in Connecticut and the cabin completion is performed in Indiana."

ACJ President Benoit Defforge said, "The ACJ TwoTwenty is a game changer in the business jet market bringing a new value proposition to the market, as is Four Corners' new offer. The 'Freedom' program simplifies the aviation travel experience for executives and high net worth individuals who care about getting to their destinations in comfort yet offering a pioneering solution to aircraft ownership to access the ACJ TwoTwenty."

We are very pleased to be able to offer the ACJ TwoTwenty to our clientele," said Cameron Gowans, president, and COO of Four Corners Aviation. The reliability of the Airbus platforms, excellent customer support, a third lower key operating cost drivers and twice better residual value vs. other large business jets, while delivering true intercontinental range, make the ACJ TwoTwenty very attractive to our 'Freedom' customers," he added.
