- Inside The $81 Million Airbus ACJ 220
0:00 - Intro
The Airbus ACJ 220 is a version of the popular C-Series passenger jet created by Bombardier before Airbus acquired the division, and is intended to combine the best of all worlds: a luxurious cabin for comfort, the range of an airliner thanks to the amount of fuel it can carry, and fuel-efficient engines that make it cost-effective. Here is everything you need to know about the Airbus ACJ 220, stay with us till the end of the video to learn more about this aircraft.
0:30 - Cabin
The huge cabin is divided into six distinct living areas: it can accommodate 18 passengers, more than 100 bags, and is 78 feet or 24 meters long, 10 feet 8 inches or 3.3 meters wide, and 6 feet 6 inches or 1.98 meters tall.
The forward living areas are open-concept featuring lie-flat club seats and divans with plenty of legroom. Passengers can look forward to cushy solo seats and sofas, a massive dining table for eight supported by a full galley kitchen with its own chefs and restaurant-grade equipment.
The coffee tables extend to become elegant dining spaces, or can be removed completely so there’s even more space for passengers. The plane also features a ‘cine-lounge’ for enjoying movies and TV shows on a large 55-inch 4K screen, which can be very useful for long flights
A six-seat conference space then comprises the next living area as one moves further into the plane. In the ceiling above, the plane features an LED lighting system and WiFi up to 50 megabits per second. And along the cabin walls, electro-chromatic windows that dim at the touch of a button eliminate the need for window shades.
The modern design will also integrate advanced soundproofing materials, a temperature control system, HEPA filters, and an integrated cabin humidification system that will refresh cabin air every three minutes with one-way air flow.
And of course, a king-size bed in the master bedroom comes in handy on the longer flights of which the jet is capable. The master bedroom features its own office, fully private bathroom with rain shower, and another large 55-inch 4K TV.
The plane has a flexible cabin catalog to provide the optimal interior arrangements that can be built in for the passengers. The cabins will be offered in three style motifs: a traditional style called timeless, a classic look named quintessence, and a modern motif dubbed avant-garde.
2:57 - Cockpit
The cockpit accommodates a two-member flight crew, comprising a pilot and co-pilot, and features a Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion integrated avionics system.
The screen used for FMS is not like in older airplanes, there are no hardware buttons and it's all graphical. Pilots control it with a cursor control device, and have “select” keys on the side.
The flight deck includes a phase of flight management system, two-mode fly-by-wire flight controls, and sidestick controllers. The flight deck also incorporates large LCD screens, dual-flight management system, dual cursor control devices, navigation, communications, surveillance, engine indication and crew alerting system, and aircraft maintenance systems.
The flight deck can also be equipped with an optional dual electronic flight bag, single or dual head-up display, and Cat 3 autoland capability. The line-replaceable modules are housed in two physically separated cabinets to ease maintenance and optimize weight.
4:19 - Engine and Performance
Talking about performance, some 40% of the ACJ 220 is made from advanced materials such as carbon fiber. That makes it lighter and means it burns 25% less fuel than similar-sized aircraft. Thrust is provided by two newly designed Pratt & Whitney PW1500G turbofans that emit lower emissions and half the noise footprint of earlier-generation engines. With each one producing 23,300 lbs of thrust, the engines are able to push the aircraft to a maximum cruise speed of 470 knots and up to a maximum cruising altitude of 41,000 feet or 12.5 kilometers.
The aircraft’s increased range will enable it to fly up to 5,650 nautical miles, which is 6,500 miles or 10,500 kilometers, and over 12 flight hours. The plane can take off in 4,800 feet or 1,460 meters, and has a landing distance of 4,550 feet or 1,385 meters, all while maintaining a maximum payload of 33,300 lbs or 15,000 kg.
5:38 - Purchase and Charter Price
The base purchase price for a new ACJ 220 is $81 million before options, with well-optioned models even surpassing the 100-million-dollar mark.
The charter price is estimated at $10,000 per hour.
6:00 - History
Airbus acquired the A220 program, formerly known as the C-Series, from Bombardier in two big bites in 2017 and 2020 for the price of $591 million.

@@rcairflr high horse? I made a funny comment. You are the one acting like a entilted af liberal professor who is mad he’s balding and needs to take 100mg of sildenafil just to even THINK about having a good time. Mark…. My friend. Have beer or a go sit on a dick; either way cheer up butter-cup.
bom bur deer got it thanks bro.
@@davidcole333 ask Eric Martel how to say it, bro.
@@rcairflr how does one dictate “french Canadian accent” thru english text? 😂😂😂 whats funny is I can see EVERY comment you have made on this post and you are a VERY mad man who apparently has self worth issues. Imagine seeking intellectual fulfillment from youtube comment’s. Don’t forget to take your Seroquel sir. Stay extremely blessed. #bombardiayeeeeeeeeeee
One of my next purchases.
0:31 ACJ 220 Airbus is magnificent ❤
It's on my to buy list. ❤️👍👍
All your videos are very informative and very detailed. Thanks a lot. I subscribed and liked.🙏
am gonna buy this one i like it
Well done
Best part...always the flight deck
Danke!
Vielen Dank, Michael!
Airbus got the deal of the century with this package, basically A fully finished project and tooling with the end product ready to go after 15 years work and 10s of billions of dollars spent and just when it's all finished and ready to go they sell it for about 5% of what they spent getting it there, crazy, whoever the executive at airbus who got this deal done and over the line deserves the big bonus because this was the ultimate package bargain, and probably just what airbus needed after its own A380 Problem where the chief designer forgot to add cargo doors
Airbus took over debt of Bombardier, who will add this amount?
@@rcairflr As long as Canadians act as second class citizens in front of Americans, this will continue. Without spine Canadians couldn't stand of Boeings lobbying in White House.
@@rcairflr well, it was Boeing who fucked them with legal and trade actions in the U.S. (and the shady Trump admin), and we can also blame all the airlines who wouldn't order from Bombardier.
This airplane is a hunk of shit. PERIOD
Canada love to give away it's greatest successes to other countries for pennies on the dollar. Or it just throws them away like the Avro Arrow. The country would collapse with that kind of stupidity if it wasn't for its vast natural resources compared to its population.
Love it all, except the goofy window cut outs.
Pure
the AIRBUS A220 ACJ based on the A220-300 stretched fuselage variant of the A220-200 is the one to opt for . . . hope the A220-300 ACJ can do Taipei (TPE) - Frankfurt (FRA) non-stop . . . that being said the A321-200 Neo ACJ is still the best by far in the narrow body large cabin business jet category . . .
Does acj have wide body aircrafts? At all? Also what does Bbj counter A321 neo with?
@@oddpotential the B737-MAX9 BBJ3 competes with the A321 ACJ
C seri look like a member of Airbus Family
Quebec Pension Fund still owns a large percentage of this plane. Airbus now owns 100% of Bombardier's portion
Thank you for sharing that 🙏
😒
Great investment and beautiful aircraft
Soon my jet
Dear JB....can you give me details speciation said jet,...thanks
I will own this jet
What no mention about the little elephant in the room: Embraer
❤
@ 4:53 470kn equals .70 Mach.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Airbus A-220 is much better than other private jets!😮😅😊
Bom-bard-yay
(Caveat: Bombardier staff may tell you to pronounce it however you like)
THÍCH THẬT...
Say, "bom-BAR-dee-yay"
Raymond Reddington's new whip ?
5:14😊
This jet costs the SAME as a Gulfstream G700 even though its much larger.
Because it costs more to maintain and has less access to the world
L'ACJ issu du 320 est beaucoup plus gros et est construit en Europe et beaucoup en France. Faut pas l'oublier 🤣😉
I always wanted to play horse shoes at 35,000 ft!
😂
🙆🏿♂️👏🏿💰🇧🇷🇧🇷
The full price is 81M, they cannot afford to raise it because they would not compete with G700 or Global7500
Waiting list is too long
Back order for commercial is Plus 500…Not sure how many are going to buy that Bloated Price of 81 Million! That truly don’t sound right!
That 81 million for Business Class…seems really way over priced! I rather spend funds on a G700..Go further, faster, more agile!
@@sickheadache9903 You have spoken my mind here l been thinking that $81 million id far to much l am going to forget Airbus, l rather think of G700 as per your suggestion.
Thank you for enlightening me
@@sickheadache9903 The G700 also costs $81M and its much smaller for only a little extra range.
LMAO BOM BA DEER
So if you put the Bombardier 8500 at 75-80 million, it's nowhere near the size of this Airbus at 81 million. No brainer. Airbus
Not necessarily. Purpose built business jets are significantly faster, burn way less fuel, and can operate from much shorter runways. Never mind the range is way less for the 220.
Speed, range, altitude, pressure and field performance is better in the Bombardier
@@brandonadams7837 Doesn't work in Asia. Cabin & cargo space is important here.
Elon musk will have one of these for home and one for his office.
Damn😂
Airbus only owns 75% of the A220. The Quebec government owns the other 25%.
Engines aren't reliable, thanks to PW. Full carbon composite doesn't work well in Asia. Nothing beats ACJ320NEO family as of now.
Acj220 is better than acj320neo. Period!
Airbus made a very wise business decision when they acquired this company.Boeing gave a pass😢.
Canada got robbed ...😄
Canada gives itself away with great enthusiasm.
Bombardier over AB any day
Needs too long a runway. I'm out!
oh no...
stop watch at 100...

Wait a Minute…Show Me that Link to what? NM…I thought it’s maximum is 3,600 nm. And I know ur talking about business class of 81 Million.? That’s More Than..Gulf Stream G700 right? .but Bombardier was dumping these babies for 19 Million! Airbus did Buy them and now have a Commercial Back Order if 500 Plus!
The avionics are just too much. There's not so much as a mechanical compass or artificial horizon in that aircraft. I hope it never suffers complete and catastrophic electrical failure....and please spare me the "that could never happen" speeches.
The Cseries does have a whiskey compass.
You’re not pronouncing Bombardier correctly
It should be called bom-ba-deer, it’s easier to pronounce
Ditch the fart ridden cloth seats, with leather, and get rid of the 60s carpet. Besides those 2 negatives that is a bad ass plane.
Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and allow Him to change your life :)
What do mean by that? Are we worshiping devil??
Jesus paid the ultimate price for our sins.@@chinwendupaschalolenyi5555
You will see that the fatigue on a mechanical geared engine will fail the system. Poor engineering. Lack of basic understanding with jet engines. This is a failure. Just wait and see what the long term effects of a geared engine do to the human being inside.
It’s bom-bar-dee-a dummie
