What is the best aircraft to start a long haul charter with? From Atlanta to Nigeria?

Answer 1

Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 87—Prohibition Against Certain Flights Within the Territory and Airspace of Nigeria


1. Applicability. This Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) No. 87 applies to all U.S. air carriers or commercial operators, all persons exercising the privileges of an airman certificate issued by the FAA unless that person is engaged in the operation of a U.S.-registered aircraft for a foreign air carrier, and all operators using aircraft registered in the United States except where the operator of such aircraft is a foreign air carrier.

2. Flight prohibition. Except as provided in paragraphs 3 and 4 of this SFAR, no person described in paragraph 1 may conduct flight operations within the territory and airspace of Nigeria


3. Permitted operations. This SFAR does not prohibit persons described in paragraph 1 from Nigeria where such operations are authorized either by exemption issued by the Administrator or by an authorization issued by another agency of the United States Government with the approval of the FAA.

4. Emergency situations. In an emergency that requires immediate decision and action for the safety of the flight, the pilot in command of an aircraft may deviate from this SFAR to the extent required by that emergency. Except for U.S. air carriers and commercial operators that are subject to the requirements of 14 CFR 121.557, 121.559, or 135.19, each person who deviates from this rule shall, within ten (10) days of the deviation, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal holidays, submit to the nearest FAA Flight Standards District Office a complete report of the operations of the aircraft involved in the deviation, including a description of the deviation and the reasons therefor.

5. Expiration. This Special Federal Aviation Regulation shall remain in effect until further notice.

It depends on how many people you will be traveling with. If the number is under 12, then consider a Gulfstream, Falcon 900 or Challenger. All have good range, comfort and speed. If you are traveling with a larger group, there are some Boeing 727, 737 and 757s available for charter with seating from 25 to 150.

Answer 3

You can't land a An-225 at a US controlled airport. Your best bet is to lease a plane.

I have 2 DC's that would fit your requirements:

$180,000/month dry (no fuel/oil) for a DC-8 31 with 10 month committment and $1MM 80% refundable security deposit. This would require you stop twice to get to Lagos. (Once in Georgetown and once in Dakar) Setup for executives but can be reconfigured.

Or a long range DC-8 73 that could make the trip non-stop. The 8 will cost $203,000/month dry with a $1.3MM 80% refunable security deposit.

You can pick your own pilots but I would have to approve them and they must be US citizens.

ATA has also been leasing some of their older 747's if these are too small.

E-mail if you are interested.

Answer 4

well for good ocomidations why not the Boeing 747-400. Great interior, great seats and great comfert. Boeing 747-400 is the best/reliable aircraft for a safe and long trip. And also the Boing 777!!!

Answer 5

Mark's ideal. in case you're flying some thing like an previous Lear 35 without drop down mask, you could get the drunken, obnoxious, cigar smoking boss to bypass to sleep in case you bump the cabin as a lot as I ain't sayin'. it truly is been executed. so some distance as airliners are worried, No. only set the automatic rigidity controller as you're meant to and enable the flight attendants manage the drunks. Mark's also ideal in that there is no regulation about holding the cabin at 8000'. tell me how that would want to artwork once you're flying to la Paz, Bolivia? Your cabin is gonna be properly over 14,000' on approach or your eardrums are going to pop even as the cabin is going from 8000' to thirteen,000 in some seconds when you've landed.

Answer 6

An Airbus A360, it has the range and cargo and passenger capability. Or if you like Boeing Aircraft, go with the best and biggest 747.

Answer 7

a 767 can get you their it just the size of your party and how much gear. There is a modified 727 at San Francisco it goes to Munich Germany non-stop all the time many many options start calling

Answer 8

Well, first of all the route doesnt seem to be too heavily populated from my point of view. I'd say use a 767 because Boeing rocks. More specifically i could say a 767-400ER because it has an EXTREMELY long range for its size.

GOOD LUCK

Answer 9

Boeing 737, it works for Canada

Answer 10

If you want something big and comfortable, the Boeing 777.
