Okay, I won't post ALL the aircraft we produce, but I'll select some of the highlights:





AAe 8-11 Series
The Next Generation in Commercial Aviation

Alteran Aerospace's 8-11 series is a long haul, mid-size wide-bodied commercial
airliner made by Alteran Aerospace. It was designed to replace and compliment their
range of 4-11 series aircraft in a variety of roles, offering greater capacity, better
efficiency and lower long-term costs. Using a combination of composite materials,
3D printing and 21st Century CAD, the 8-11 is Altera's most modern airliner to date.

The Alteran Aerospace 8-11 Series is an Alteran long-haul, mid-size widebody, twin-engine jet airliner made by Alteran Aerospace. Its variants seat 190 to 360 passengers in typical three-class seating configurations. It is the first airliner with an airframe constructed primarily of composite materials.

The 8-11 was designed to be 20% more fuel-efficient than the AAe 4-11, which it was intended to replace. The 8-11's distinguishing features include mostly electrical flight systems, raked wingtips, and noise-reducing chevrons on its engine nacelles.

The aircraft's initial designation was the L-11, prior to its renaming in Feburary 2010. The first 8-11 was unveiled in a roll-out ceremony on July 8, 2017 at AAe's Ludlum factory in Northern Altera. Development and production of the 8-11 has involved a large-scale collaboration with numerous suppliers worldwide.

Final assembly takes place at the Alteran Aerospace Ludlum Factory in Ludlum, Altera, and at the Alteran Aerospace factory in Dylekirk, Noronica. Originally planned to enter service in May 2016, the project experienced multiple delays. The airliner's maiden flight took place on May 6th 2014, and completed flight testing in mid-2016. AAe has reportedly spent in excess of $40 billion on the 8-11 program.

Inspired by the success of the 4-11, several companies lined up to take delivery of the aircraft - signing up as launch customers. These included A.O.A.C., Sterling Airways and dragonFly.

Following the success of the initial 4-11 series and its successors, the 8-11 launched with a variety of aircraft types; the 8-11 100, 200, 300 and 400. As with the 4-11, the 8-11 also accepts customized orders for additional equipment for the military and other civil aviation duties.

Design


The Alteran Aerospace 8-11 is a long-haul, widebody, twin-engine jetliner, which features light-weight construction. The aircraft is 80% composite by volume; AAe lists its materials by weight as 50% composite, 20% aluminum, 15% titanium, 10% steel, and 5% other. Aluminium has been used throughout the wing and tail leading edges, titanium is predominantly present within the elements of the engines and fasteners, while various individual components are composed of steel.

External features include a smooth nose contour, raked wingtips and engine nacelles with noise-reducing serrated edges (chevrons). The longest-range 8-11 variant can fly 8,000 to 8,500 nautical miles (9,200 to 9,800 mi; 14,800 to 15,700 km), enough to cover even the longest routes over the Western Isles. Its cruising airspeed is Mach 0.85, equivalent to 561 mph (903 km/h; 487 kn) at typical cruise altitudes. The aircraft has a design life of 44,000 flight cycles.

Among 8-11 flight systems, a key change from traditional airliners is the electrical architecture. The architecture is bleedless and replaces bleed air and hydraulic power sources with electrically powered compressors and pumps, while completely eliminating pneumatics and hydraulics from some subsystems, e.g., engine starters or brakes. AAe says that this system extracts 35% less power from the engines, allowing increased thrust and improved fuel efficiency.

The total available on-board electrical power is 1.45 megawatts, which is five times the power available on conventional pneumatic airliners; the most notable electrically powered systems include engine start, cabin pressurization, horizontal-stabilizer trim, and wheel brakes. Wing ice protection is another new system; it uses electro-thermal heater mats on the wing slats instead of traditional hot bleed air. An active gust alleviation system, similar to the system used on the B-2 bomber, improves ride quality during turbulence.

The 8-11 has a "fly-by-wire" control system similar in architecture to that of the later 4-11 designs (post-2010 built). The flight deck features multi-function LCDs, which use an industry-standard graphical user interface widget toolkit. The 8-11 flight deck includes two head-up displays (HUDs) as a standard feature. The 8-11 shares a common type rating with the larger 4-11, allowing qualified pilots to operate both models. Like other AAe airliners, the 8-11 uses a yoke instead of a side-stick.

Under consideration is future integration of forward-looking infrared into the HUD for thermal sensing, allowing pilots to "see" through clouds.

The 8-11 is the first major commercial airplane to have a composite fuselage, composite wings, and use composites in most other airframe components. Each 8-11 contains approximately 77,000 pounds (35 metric tons) of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), made with 51,000 lb (23 t) of carbon fiber. Carbon fiber composites have a higher strength-to-weight ratio than conventional aircraft materials, and help make the 8-11 a lighter aircraft. Composites are used on fuselage, wings, tail, doors, and interior.

The first carbon/epoxy primary structure was put into service on the AAe 4-11 classic horizontal tail in 1984.

Carbon fiber, unlike metal, does not visibly show cracks and fatigue, prompting concerns about the safety risks of widespread use of the material. Although fired in 2006, several AAe engineers complained to management, and later to the public: the composite fuselage was unsafe compared to conventional aluminum designs, and in a crash, was more likely to "shatter too easily and burn with toxic fumes".

In addition, a potential issue is the porous nature of composite materials: collected moisture expanding with altitude can cause delamination. AAe responded that composites have been used on wings and other passenger aircraft parts for many years without incident, and special defect detection procedures will be instituted for the 8-11 to detect any potential hidden damage.

The Alteran Aerospace 4-11 is a wide-bodied jet airliner developed and manufactured by Alteran Aerospace. Formally announced in the early 1960s, it is widely regarded as Altera's first, and most commercially successful, wide-bodied jet liner to be put into production. The 4-11 is a series of aircraft produced by Alteran Aerospace, who offer variants in many sizes and features. The most common, the 4-11 100, is widely used throughout the region and typically seats 300 passengers in a single class configuration.

Development of the 4-11 began during the 1960s as a collaborative project between the various small aerospace companies that resided in Altera. Following the merger into Alteran Aerospace, the project was consolidated and put as a main priority for the company. Whilst companies such as Caelius Dynamics withdrew from the consortium (later to go on to develop the C-100 series using lessons learned from the 4-11), the aircraft saw its first flight - as the 4-11 100 - in 1963, with production beginning in May of the following year.

Alteran Overseas Airways Corporation (A.O.A.C.). the launch customer of the 4-11 100, introduced the aircraft into service on January 1st 1970. Following an initial spur of orders from airlines, orders of new aircraft were limited - plateauing until the 1990s. The aircraft, both new and built models, were given a new lease of life in the 2000s and again in the 2010s, with the instalment of a new digital cockpit, engine and digital control surfaces.

Following the success of the initial 4-11, the design was stretched into a number of variants; the 4-11 100R (1971), 200 (1978), 300 (1991) and 400 (2008) - with the original re-branded as the 100.

Design


Whilst to the untrained eye the 4-11 may not look like a revolutionary aircraft, looking much like civil aircraft operating everyday in the 21st century, at the time the 4-11 was building on its revolutionary ancestry and pedigree of the rear-engined aircraft produced by AAe - only this time it was the creation of a company who was responding to future market demands in the region.

First conceived in the late 1960s, the 4-11 was [at first] a design study undertaken by several apprentices within Alteran Aerospace (AAe) in their first few years at the company; originally starting with tweaking the designs of earlier airline designs to create a wider version. As it was essentially the pet project of several graduates, it did not receive much consideration from the higher-ups and it would be a while until the lead designers were informed of its existence. Fortunately for the company, when the apprentices were given full-time positions, they brought with them their designs for the 4-11. Impressed with the concept, AAe allowed some of them to continue to pursue its development - albeit on a small, low funded scale. For nearly two years it remained in this limbo-like state until in the 1960s Alteran Overseas Airways Corporation (A.O.A.C.) approached AAe with a desire for a higher-capacity aircraft.

The Alteran Aerospace 4-11 is a wide-body medium-to-long range airliner; it has the distinction of being an early adopter of the first twin-engine wide-body aircraft in the region. By the 1980s, newly constructed aircraft incorporate the use of composite materials, which was used on both secondary and later primary airframe structures, decreasing overall weight and improving cost-effectiveness. Aircraft built prior to the 1980s were had the option to have new composite components and frames. Other firsts included the pioneering use of centre-of-gravity control, achieved by transferring fuel between various locations across the aircraft, and electrically signalled secondary flight controls.

All the aircraft in the 4-11 series are powered by a pair of underwing turbofan engines, either Jet Air, Prance-Royce or Oakoms engines; the sole use of underwing engine pods allowed for any suitable turbofan engine to be more readily used. An optional rear engined variant of the 4-11 100 was produced for number of years, as the configuration was ideal for short runways. However, this configuration was pulled from production later as sales slumped. The lack of a third tail-mounted engine, as per the trijet configuration used by some competing airliners, allowed for the wings to be located further forwards and to reduce the size of the vertical stabilizer and elevator, which had the effect of increasing the aircraft's flight performance and fuel efficiency.

Later 4-11s incorporated other advanced features such as the Forward-Facing Crew Cockpit, which enabled a two-pilot flight crew to fly the aircraft alone without the need for a flight engineer, the functions of which were automated; this two-man cockpit concept was a world-first for a wide-body aircraft. Glass cockpit flight instrumentation, which used cathode ray tube (CRT) monitors to display flight, navigation, and warning information, along with fully digital dual autopilots and digital flight control computers for controlling the spoilers, flaps, and leading-edge slats, were also adopted upon later-built models.

Additional composites were also made use of, such as carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP), as well as their presence in an increasing proportion of the aircraft's components, including the spoilers, rudder, air brakes, and landing gear doors. Another feature of later aircraft were the addition of wingtip fences, which generated greater aerodynamic performance (first introduced on the 4-11 200).

Variants


4-11 100

The first production version of the 4-11 series. Original model first flew in 1966 and differed greatly from the original design, which would have seen the two engines mounted on the fuselage of the aircraft instead of underwing pods. The 4-11 was award its flight certificate in the late 1960s and production began 1969. Both Alteran Republics's Alteran Overseas Airways Corporation (A.O.A.C.) and Baersk Air Services were launch customers. Baersk opted to operate a freight conversion of the aircraft on its overnight freight air service, transporting a variety of parcels and crates across Northern Argus. As the freight option was popular with airlines, AAe has since made freight variants (designated with an 'F') a standard option for all 4-11 aircraft. The 4-11 100 also saw introduction of a rear-engined aircraft, with four turbofans mounted on the fuselage, designated the 4-11 100R. Although production halted in the 1980s, the aircraft continues to be updated and maintained by AAe with several airlines still operating the variant.

Sub-Variants

  • 4-11 100 F - Civilian/military spec. cargo hauler

  • 4-11 100 R - Fitted with four fuselage mounted engines

  • 4-11 100 RF - R variant outfitted for civilian/military spec. cargo hauler

  • 4-11 100 'Guardian' - Military airborne early warning radar (AWACS)

  • 4-11 100 'Sea Maiden' - Military airborne anti-submarine and maritime patrol

4-11 200

The 4-11 200 was a development of the original 4-11 100 aircraft and was the first in the series to feature winglets. The fuselage was extended by just over six metres in an attempt to carry more passengers; 330 over the 4-11 100's 300 capacity. The flight range was expanded with the installation of a central fuel tank in the fuselage, making the 4-11 200 capable of flying long routes that covered most of the nations within the region. Seeing the potential in the longer range, various airline companies; notably Norstham's Norura Air, Alteran Republics's Sterling Airways and Jorvvik's Air Jorvvik, placed themselves as launch customers. Several air forces also make use of the military transport and tanker conversions.

Sub-Variants

  • 4-11 200 F - Civilian/Military Spec. Cargo Hauler

  • 4-11 200 T - Military aerial refuelling tanker

  • 4-11 200 'Guardian' - Military Airborne Early Warning Radar (AWACS)

  • 4-11 200 'Sea Maiden' - Military Airborne Anti-Submarine and Maritime Patrol

4-11 300

A direct development of the 4-11 200, the 4-11 300 saw a lengthened fuselage to accommodate a higher volume of either passengers or cargo. With a capacity of up to 380 passengers, the 4-11 300 was - at the time - one of the few aircraft in the region to be able to carry over 350 paying passengers. The aircraft is often configured for a 3-Class layout, reducing the capacity to around 280 passengers. Whilst the 4-11 300 remains one of the most efficient aircraft to operate on long haul flights, it is often overlooked in favour of the later 4-11 400. However, the aircraft remains popular amongst air freighter companies.

Sub-Variants

Carrying a maximum of over 400 passengers, the 4-11 400 remains one of the most popular long haul airliners - being operated by a variety of companies on their long haul routes across the region. As the with the 4-11 200, it also sees popular service amongst the armed forces, with aircraft converted for tanker and transportation roles, as well as an AWACS variant offered by for air control and surveillance missions.

first developed and introduced in the 1980s and 1990s. The C-100 was the first
commercial aircraft and one of the most successful Alteran airliner designs for the then-fledgling
company. The upgraded C-100 B and C-100 C series has the more powerful Oakoms OE.145 engines.
The later upgrades has increased operating weights and can carry up to 150 passengers.

The Caelius Dynamics C-100 Series is an Alteran long-haul, mid-size widebody, twin-engine jet airliner made by Caelius Dynamics. Also known as the C-100, it was an Alteran short-range jet airliner of the developed in the 1980s and 1990s. It was one of the first Alteran-manufactured short-haul jet airliner to enter service. The aircraft was also licence-produced in Xrevaro.

The C-100 was originally conceived by design bureau Tempus Aircraft Corporation and was subsequently developed by the Caelius Dynamics when the companies merged along with several other small aerospace companies in the 1980s. The C-100 was aimed at replacing the role of the earlier turboprop-powered aircraft on short-range routes. The C-100 made it to market ahead of the 3-11 from Alteran Aerospace, which gave it a temporary edge on the market.

The aircraft proved to be popular with domestic airlines and with various international operators; over half of the One-Eleven's sales at launch were to the largest and most lucrative markets in the region. The aircraft was one of the most successful Alteran airliner designs and serves throughout Argus and the wider region. It remained a dominant aircraft from Altera until more advanced turboprops from Norstham and Alteran Aerospace's 3-11 and 8-11 saw development and construction.

Design


The Caelius Dynamics C-100 is a twin turbine short-haul jet transport with rear mounted engines in a 'T' tail configuration. It has a retractable tricycle undercarriage with hydraulically powered brakes and nose wheel steering. The aircraft itilises hydraulic power for flight controls, though this was quickly replaced with digital systems where appropriate. For the electrical system, two-engine-driven generators supply power, together with an additional generator powered by the Auxillart Power Unit (APU) mounted in the tail cone. Two Oakoms OE.142 turbofan engines power the aircraft, each rated at 10,410 lb static thrust in the initial C-100 A series. Later series, the C-100 B and C-100 C have higher-powered OE.145 turbofans.

Market research showed the early designs for the aircraft - which featured only 59 seats, was deemed too small. By the 1980s, the design was reworked with passenger capacity growing to 80 seats, and utilised new engines from Oakoms Aerospace. The revised design was redesignated the Caelius Dynamics C-100. Unlike contemporary airliners, the C-100 was not designed specifically to meet the needs of the state-owned airliners, but on the needs of airlines around the world, and Caelius Dynamics expected orders for as many as 400. Test flying was conducted by former Alteran Air Defence Force pilot, Squadron Leader Andrew Gladstone.

On the 8th May, 1985, the C-100 was publicly launched when Alteran Overseas Airways Corporation placed the first order for twelve C-100 A. On the 20th October, Alteran airline Confederate ordered 16 of the aircraft. Sterling and Laker sent representatives to Caelius Dynamics seeking out a new aircraft for their short-haul routes, and on 24th July 1987 concluded an agreement for eighteen C-100.

In May 1992, Caelius Dynamics announced the C-100 B and C-100 C series. The new versions used the Mk. 311 version of the Oakoms OE.145 engines with increased power, allowing more fuel upload and hence longer range. Both of these designs were quickly adopted by Laker and Alteran United Airways, both keen making their mark on the regional airline scene are large, independent airlines.

Oakoms O.141
A S/VTOL Airliner for Inter-City Airports

The O.141 is recently developed short-haul airliner, designed and built by Oakoms Aerospace, a
subsidary of the Oakoms Group. The O.141 is the company's attempt to break into the already
crowded aerospace market, by offering a unique aircraft that can operate from both short runways
as well as take-off and land vertically. The aircraft has seen adoption, albeit in limited numbers, around the
region as a short-haul airliner that flies frequently between cities with airports in urban areas.

O.141(A)
O.141(B)

The Oakoms Aerospace O.141 is a narrow-bodied jet airliner, capable of taking off and landing vertically or from very short runways, developed and manufactured by Oakoms Aerospace. Formally announced in the early 1990s, it is widely regarded the region's first major attempt at a VTOL airliner, despite a mixed reception from the international aviation industry.

In 1988 the Alteran Aviation Board (AAB) issued a design study "Outline Requirement" (OR) for a 100-seat VTOL airliner capable of a minimum range of 450 miles (725 km), to take of from the planned inter-city airports. Emphasis was to be on noise reduction by using steep approach and departure profiles, much like those used today at contemporary city airports. It was thought at the time that money would be better invested on designing new aircraft types than building additional airports outside of urban areas.

Oakoms Aerospace investigated various configurations of aircraft, powerplant and control systems including an early proposal using ogival delta wings and twin fins, before submitting their draft design proposal to the AAB in January 1990. The first models and designs of the planned aircraft were unveiled at the 1990 Ludlum Air Show, where it was announced the aircraft would be known as the O.141.

Following the success of the initial O.141, the design was stretched into a number of variants; including the O.141A and the O.141B. The aircraft has been mainly adopted by a few airlines to run routes that involved flying to or from runways operating inside cities.

Design


The O.141 design was a jet airliner of all-metal construction with a T-tail and a low-mounted swept wing with a quarter-chord sweepback of 28 degrees. The design featured two wing-mounted "cruise" engines and either 16 or 20 lift fan engines mounted in sponsons either side of the fuselage (eight per side).

The engines under main consideration were the Oakoms Aerospace Engines OAE.220 turbofan for forward propulsion and the Oakoms Aerospace Engines OAE.202, a high bypass ratio lift fan engine using technology developed for the Oakoms Aerospace Engines OAE.162 lift jet. Both engines were themselves design studies by Oakoms Aerospace and it was feared that there would be delays in their development due to the company's problems at the time.

Although the aircraft is usually shipped with Alteran engines, Oakoms usually allow for the installing of other forward-propulsion engines on an order-to-order basis. Variations using fewer lift fan engines for STOL operations only were also studied as it was realised that the engines could account for 15% of the total weight of the aircraft and 35% of the final cost.

During the design stage many solutions involving high-lift devices were explored including flaps blown by the "cruise" engines. The flight control system proved the greatest challenge to the design team, systems had to be devised to control the aircraft in slow or hovering flight. This was to be achieved by swivelling the lift engines in their mounts combined with varying the thrust of each engine to provide control in pitch, roll and yaw.

The lift engines were said to be a useful safety feature in the event of failure of the main 'cruise' engines, although such an event has yet to take place outside of testing scenarios. Significant design information was gained from flight trials with the Osprey fighter aircraft being developed at the same time by Alteran Aerospace.

The passenger cabin was conventional with five or six seats abreast, luggage and freight was to be loaded in pre-packed pallets and raised up into the lower fuselage using a system similar to other conventional narrow-bodied airliners.

The most unconventional and most complex aspect of the O.141 design lays within its control system. The aircraft has conventional ailerons, elevator controls and rudder that lose their efficiency with a drop in speed below the minimum value of the evolutionary speed (minimum permissible speed while maintaining controllability) in an ordinary flight, in which the lifting force is generated by the wing. For vertical and very slow forward movement, lifting fan motors are used to provide control and perform the same functions as the "exhaust pipes" used for control on the Condor Jump Jet. This requires a differentiated operation of the engines both from the point of view of thrust and the thrust vector.

For pitch control, the differentiation of thrust between the bow and stern thrusters is used, while roll control is the differentiation of thrust between the left and right engines. The yaw control requires differentiating the tilt of the engines: so the traction of some engines is deflected forward, while while the others are tilted to direct the traction backwards. As already noted, for acceleration or deceleration, all engines are deflected together backward or forward. Another consequence of the use of engines for control purposes is a very rapid response to the required thrust changes.

Variants


O.141A

Basic and most common variant of the aircraft. Has a capacity of 102–120 passengers, dependent on seat pitch. Has 16 OAE.202 lift fans installed for VTOL/STOL flight operations.
