Comlux has taken delivery of the first ever Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty at the Airbus Canada facilities in Mirabel, Canada. The all-new business jet, powered exclusively by Pratt & Whitney GTF engines, landed at Comlux’ s Indianapolis facilities for cabin completion.
Since its successful purchase last month at the Dubai Air Show 2021, the first ACJ TwoTwenty is now owned by FIVE, the Dubai-based Group with verticals in Real Estate, Hospitality, Investments and Philanthropy. Comlux Completion will engineer, fabricate and integrate the interior of the VIP cabin which FIVE selected from among the multiple cabin arrangements and options that the ACJ TwoTwenty offers.
The ACJ TwoTwenty completion process incorporates the latest in 3D modelization technology. Comlux engineers have integrated it into a virtual reality system allowing the ACJ TwoTwenty customers to immerse themselves into the future cabin environment. Beyond aesthetics, the system provides virtual interactive capability and allows the interior to be analyzed from an ergonomic, equipment functionality and maintainability standpoint, demonstrating how the aircraft will perform in service.
Daron Dryer, CEO Comlux Completion, said, "I am delighted to welcome home the first ever ACJ TwoTwenty. Our Design & Engineering teams have been working on the program jointly with the ACJ team for more than 2 years and now, she is here! Thanks to the new Virtual Reality tool we have especially developed for this program, the completion process will be the most efficient, stringent and reliable we have ever achieved, allowing us to guarantee an Entry into Service at the beginning of 2023. We could not dream of a better start in the new year!”
