How fast does it take to change out a Rolls Royce 5 ton aircraft engine?
Under 2 minutes
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/ne...-video-airbus/ Normally I dislike all Airbus but the 340 is sexy and the 380 looks great on approach and landing And most favorite as private is all Dassault Falcon, especially 8x. Incredible Mines in the shop for an oil change

I think she has the great 900 series and I've heard also the smaller 50 which is my favorite and flew back from a REBEL game in from either North Carolina or Louisville I forget but we lost. Not hers but another one.

Falcons are sweet-handling airplanes.

A lot of manual work. It can't be done for 2 minutes and definetly takes a few hours.

I like the falcon series, heard they are great to fly. Never had the chance maybe one day I'll ask my friend at CAE if he knows any one on the falcons we can jump into.
Here's a fun video on the falcon 50 https://youtu.be/c7ojhYSSMKc |

Space X was suppose to take delivery of the first 8X in North American, last week. They sold their 7X a month or so ago, and have been roughing it in a G650 for the last six months.

The Falcon 10 was my favorite. No life limited structural components and no maximum turbulence penetration speed - not that you'd want to run through thunderstorms at Mach .8+ but basically indestructible in the air.

Everyone would love a Global Express or Boeing Business Jet as a private jet, myself included, but delusions of mega-wealth aside, I'd settle for a possibly attainable Pilatus PC-12 NG for skipping around Europe's airports and airfields if I became reasonably wealthy one day.
