Aircraft Named Jammu And Kashmir
Air India to showcase Boeing 777 at Farnborough Air Show
FARNBOROUGH, England - Air India's newest Boeing 777-300ER (Extended Range) airplane arrived Saturday in Farnborough, England, ahead of Monday's opening of the Farnborough International Air Show. The 777-300ER will be on display during the air show highlighting its new livery, interior and passenger amenities.
The 777-300ER is the 10th 777 delivered to Air India from its December 2005 order of 68 Boeing jetliners.
The aircraft, named "Jammu and Kashmir" in keeping with Air India's tradition of naming its 777s after the various states of India, has a three-class configuration, including four first-class, 35 executive class and 303 economy seats. The airline will operate the 777-300ER on its India to United States via London route.
Air India, India's national flagship carrier, in July 2007 became the first India-based airline to operate nonstop flights from India to the United States with its first 777-200LR (Longer Range) Worldliner airplane.
The twin-engine Boeing 777 is the most fuel-efficient airplane in its category, a key element in its leading economic and environmental performance.

Len Rayment FCA - BAESystems TAG Farnborough Airport Criminal Case
By Jodi Richards
FARNBOROUGH, U.K. -- Farnborough International Airport, located south of London, attracts aviation enthusiasts here every two years for the Farnborough International Air Show. Once a leading military research and development airfield, Farnborough enters a new era with private investment from TAG Aviation, which owns and controls more than 160 business jets and is a part of TAG Group S.A. The goal: Make the airport England's premier business aviation facility.
According to Len Rayment, director of FBO and business development, Farnborough has been "an airfield of some description" since 1907. Most famously known for its biannual international air show, last held here in July. Until the early 1990s, the airfield was a government-owned research facility involved with "just about every form of military aviation development you could imagine," says Rayment. He explains that in the ?80s the British government decided to dedicate Farnborough, one of three research and development airfields it was operating, to business aviation. A 50-acre site on the south side of the airfield went out for commercial tender. A civil enclave was established in 1989 by Carroll Aircraft, whose holding company, The Carroll Group, went bankrupt in 1995. In 1999, operation of the airport was once again put out to tender to be operated as a business aviation facility. TAG Aviation submitted a successful bid and entered into a 125-year lease of the airfield, subject to obtaining planning permission and a CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) license.
According to Ann Bartaby, TAG Farnborough director of operations and development, each process required separate approval, making for an intense 18 months.
