Aleksania Aerospace Industries C-A.25

The Aleksania Aerospace Industries (AAI) C-A.25 (NATO Codename “Jetstar”) is an improved and modernized version of the Boeing 707 jetliner. The Jetstar can find it's orrigans in the 1985 C-A.12, a license build version of the Boeing 707. Then, in 1997, six years after the last C-A.12 rolled of the production line (0012.0156), AAI began development on the C-A.25, under the codename “X-2000”. Then, after three years, the Jetstars design was unvailed. It used a similar airframe as the 707 (it is 3m longer), but that's where the similarities ended. It was powered by four Pratt & Whitney PW6000 turbofan engians (the same that power the A318), has AIU C-R.89 "Flashlight" radar, AAI C-Av.56 "Skymaster" fly-by-wire avionics, St. George Island SGI-20 Communications suit, and an Aleksania Entertainment (the entertainment division of AIU) Aircraft Entertainment IV entertainment system. One of the unique fetures of he Entertainment IV system, and the Jetstar by extent, as it is the first and only aircraft that uses it, is the so called "Captain's Pick" music station (CH. 14), where the captain preloads (BEFORE THE FLIGHT!, he can not change it mid flight as it is in the rear of the plane) an selection of his/her favorite songs (up to 50 songs), which can be listen to by passengers. This can be turned on or off at the captians disgression. Finnaly, in 2005, the first Jetstar debuded at the Aleksania city airshow. So far, 150 examples have been sold to airlines such as AIA, American Airlines, Air France, Pan American Airways, Japan Air Lines, Delta/Northwest Airlines, Air Canada, Cubana, S7 Airlines, Air Berlin, and others.
