RJ70, Avro RJ85, Avro RJ100
The
Avro RJ was developed from the BAe 146, the major changes being:
- Honeywell
LF507 engines, with significantly lower operating temperatures for reduced
maintenance costs and increased thrust under "hot and high"
conditions.
Electronic
FADEC engine and APU controls.
- All
digital, ARINC 700, avionics with Cat IIIa low weather-minima landing
capability (with Cat IIIb available as an option).
- New
Space liner passenger cabin with increased comfort and improved appearance.
- Developed
design weights, reduced drag and increased cruising altitude which increase
range, economy and operational flexibility.
-
Avro
RJX-85, Avro RJX-100
Based
on the success of its Avro RJ and BAe 146 series of regional jets, BAE SYSTEMS
has launched the new Avro RJX, with advanced Honeywell AS977 engines. The Avro
RJX offers the highest airfield performance of any regional jet, combined with
an outstanding passenger cabin with enormous flexibility in seating layouts. Due
to enter service in April 2002, the Avro RJX is well advanced with two aircraft
(an RJX-85 and an RJX-100) already taking part in flight test and another
RJX-100 due to join the program.
BAe Systems
announced on November 27th 2001, that the production of the 146-, RJ and RJX series
would be stopped after completion of the four aircraft in production at that
date.
