March greetings,

March is a busy month. The clocks advance, spring officially arrives, business aviation venues begin to ramp up, and so much more. The month and the season ahead bring a sense of renewal and motivation. In the words of Tolstoy, “Spring is the time of plans and projects.”

The Old Farmer’s Almanac reports that “spring begins with the vernal equinox at 7:02 A.M. (EDT) on March 20, 2013 in the Northern Hemisphere. This season brings increasing daylight, warming temperatures, and the rebirth of flora and fauna. The word equinox is derived from the Latin words meaning “equal night.” Days and nights are approximately equal everywhere and the sun rises and sets due east and west.”

This month’s issue of InSight is also busy, so to speak. A few features have moved throughout the pub and there is plenty of great content to be had. The first thing you’ll notice is that the ‘CAMP Calendar’ is immediately to the left and it now includes an Industry Venues listing. As I mentioned last month, there’s a lot happening in our aviation community. CAMP team members are making every effort to be available in your neck of the woods. Come visit us at an upcoming venue.

So, now that the ‘Calendar’ is on page 2, where has the ‘CAMP Directory’ gone? The ‘CAMP Directory’ can now be found on pages 18 and 19. Why the move? It’s because the directory has expanded. We’ve added more contacts and clarification to help you get to the assistance you need.

As a result of the ‘Directory’s’ new position, ‘Insight to the Past’ can now be found on pages 8 and 9. This month, in honor of March being Women’s History Month, Giacinta recognizes the contributions of those pioneering women who helped shape the history of aviation. Read The Sky’s The Limit on page 8.

Also in this month’s issue…

• Nel Stubbs of Conklin & de Decker discusses Federal Excise Taxes. “Tax Day” in the U.S. is quickly approaching. Monday, April 15 is the final day to submit taxes to the IRS;

• The NBAA’s commentary on the Sequestration;

• AMSTAT takes a look at what the OEMs have in the works;

• Eli Stepp, North Central Regional FSR, walks existing CAMP & CESCOM users through the process of adding new users; and

• while your perusing, glance at this month’s ‘Pearls’, 'Toolbox', ‘OEM Highlight’, and the latest ASO submission (found on page 16).

Thanks for reading and happy spring!

Best regards,

4 CAMP SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL ❖ MARCH 2013 MARCH 2013 ❖ CAMP SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL 5

hen we talk about Federal Excise Taxes on general aviation we assume that we are all talking about the same thing. However, these Federal Excise Taxes (“FET”) are made

up several components that will be reviewed below. These are the rates that are effective January 1, 2013.

The noncommercial Federal Excise Taxes are the fuel taxes:

AVIATION GASOLINE (Avgas)$0.15 per gallon excise tax$0.043 per gallon Deficit Reduction Tax$0.001 per gallon LUST tax$0.194 per gallon - Total

JET FUEL (Jet A)$0.175 per gallon excise tax$0.043 per gallon Deficit Reduction Tax$0.025 per gallon “fuel fraud” tax1

$0.001 per gallon LUST tax$0.244 per gallon – Total

The commercial Federal Excise Taxes are broken into two categories, 1) Transportation of Persons, and 2) Transportation of Property, with the Transportation of Persons being broken down into two more categories of 1) Domestic, and 2) International.

TRANSPORTATION OF PERSONS• DomesticExcise Tax

• 7.5% on the amounts paid

> This tax is due on all amounts paid except catering, baggage handling, flight phones and lim-ousine services for the passengers.

Segment fee• $3.90 per person, per leg (this fee can change every January)

• The segment fee does not apply to

> Flights to and from rural airports

• A rural airport is an airport with less than 100,000 en-planements and greater than 75 miles from such airport.

> Airports that are not connected by paved roads to another airport.

• InternationalDeparture & Arrival Fees

• $17.20 per person departure from the US and $17.20 per person arrival in the US.

• An international flight is a flight that does not begin and end in the United States, or in the ‘225-mile zone’, or is considered ‘uninterrupted’ international air transportation.” The “225-mile zone” is that portion of Canada and Mexico that is not more than 225 miles from the nearest point in the continental United States. The term “uninterrupted international air transportation” means that if a scheduled international flight takes off from a city in the United States, lands in another U.S. city, and has a layover of less than 12 hours, it is consid-ered uninterrupted international air transportation. If a flight is consid-ered uninterrupted international air transportation or it goes outside the 225-mile zone the 7.5 percent com-mercial transportation tax is not owed and the $17.20 per person, departure and arrival, head tax does apply.

Alaska and Hawaii• For departures from Alaska and Ha-waii and the continental US, the tax is $8.60 per person.

> Note that this fee is only for de-partures from Alaska and Hawaii and the domestic transportation of person’s tax applies to the por-tion of the flight that is over US water or land.

TRANSPORTATION OF PROPERTY• 6.25% is imposed on the cargo waybill for flights within the United States

If you are considered a commercial operator for the purposes of the FET and are required to collect and remit the commercial FET, you may now be entitled to a refund or credit of the excise tax paid on the fuel burned in that commercial activity. The Federal Excise Taxes are mutually exclusive you either pay one or the other, never both.

1 The 2005 Highway Bill changed how aviation

jet fuel was to be taxed. While the aviation fuel

tax rate remained the same, $0.219 per gallon,

most fuel leaving refineries has a $0.244 per

gallon rate, which now requires users to obtain

a refund for the $0.025 per gallon difference.

However, if you are considered a commercial operator for purposes of the FET you may fall under one of the exemptions from the commercial tax. Always remember that all exemptions are narrow and you should check with a tax profession to be sure that your operation will fall under a particular exemption. If you are exempt from the transportation of person’s tax, you may be subject to the fuel tax. Following are some of these exemptions:

Aircraft that Weigh Less Than 6,000 Pounds• Aircraft that weigh less than 6,000 pounds and are not operated on an established line are exempt from the commercial FET, fuel tax applies

>This exemption does not apply to jets

• Sightseeing Flights – “…a small aircraft is not considered as being operated on an es-tablished line at any time during which the aircraft is being operated on a flight the sole purpose of which is sightseeing” are exempt from the commercial FET, fuel tax applies.

Forestry & Logging Operations• Fixed Wing & Helicopter engaged in for-estry or logging operations are exempt from the commercial FET.

Oil Exploration• Helicopters engaged in the exploration or development of hard minerals, oil or gas are exempt from the commercial FET.

Emergency Medical Flights• Helicopters engaged in emergency medi-cal flights and fixed wing aircraft that are equipped for and exclusively dedicated on that flight to acute care emergency medical services are exempt from both the commer-cial FET and the fuel taxes.

Members of an Affiliated Group• If your aircraft operates within an affiliated group (a group made up of a parent com-pany owning 80% or more of subsidiary companies) then the flights within the affiliated group, are exempt from the com-mercial FET, fuel tax applies.

Skydiving• Amounts paid by skydivers to be taken to a point in the sky to jump out of an airplane,

are exempt from the commercial FET, fuel tax applies.

Seaplane• Any flight segment consisting of a take-off and a landing on water is exempt from the commercial FET, fuel tax applies.

Other Exemptions

Fuel FET Exemptions• Fuel sold for use in farming

• Aircraft Museums

• For exclusive use by any State or political subdivision

• Sale for export

Commercial FET Exemptions• Caretakers and messengers accompanying freight shipments

• Circus or show conveyances

• Corpses

This is a synopsis of the application of the Federal Excise Taxes. As with any tax, an aircraft owner or operator should consult with an entity that understands how these rules can be applied. Most of the rules and regulations governing the application of the commercial FET have not changed much since the 1950’s. However, new IRS interpretations and guidance have given cause to a vigorous effect by the IRS to audit general aviation aircraft. These audits will be addressed in a later article.

CAMP Pearls are valuable little pieces of wisdom about CAMP,

its applications and more.

TASK UPDATES: Processing Compliance Information

The processing of compliance infor-mation serves the general purpose of recording how often a task has been accomplished and when it will again calculate a next due. Each tracked aircraft has either one of two processes assigned to it which is controlled by the program to which it’s enrolled. The traditional CAMP aircraft will follow the standard Update process while CESCOM aircraft are bound to the Maintenance Transaction (MTR) routine.

Access Points

The following lists all points of ac-cess; both types of updates, CAMP & CESCOM, can be accessed from almost any screen within the system using similar menu features on each of the pages.

• Update/MTR Link – Prompts for a task search and manual load.

• Task/Status – Tasks are manually selected and automatically loaded using menus.

• Task Groups – Tasks are manually selected and automatically loaded using menus.

• Due Lists – Tasks are manually selected and automatically loaded using menus.

• Work Orders – Tasks are manually selected and automatically loaded using menus.

•Discrepancies – Squawks are manually selected and automati-cally loaded using menus.

6 CAMP SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL ❖ MARCH 2013 MARCH 2013 ❖ CAMP SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL 7

AAs we settle into the new year, AMSTAT checked in with the OEM’s to see what is on the horizon.

It turns out we will see some new aircraft, some perfecting of existing aircraft, and a complete re-structuring of one company.

Cessna Aircraft Company introduces its new aircraft, the Citation M2, while re-introducing the New Citation X and the New Citation Sov-ereign. The Cessna M2, a light jet, is according to Cessna the answer to more speed, advanced avionics and additional seats. The M2 is a single pilot aircraft that will hold up to six passengers. It is outfitted with the Garmin G3000 avionics package, a suite that features new technology with its touch-screen controllers to reduce pilot work-load. Touch icons replace knobs and buttons and are used for flight management tasks, setting ra-dio frequencies, audio adjustment, synoptic and other functions.

Along with the Citation M2, Cessna will also roll out the New Citation X and the New Sover-eign in September/October 2013. Cessna boasts that the The New Citation X will be the fastest civil aircraft in the world. The maximum cruise speed is expected to be 527 ktas. The aircraft will be equipped with new Rolls Royce AE3007C2 en-gines; with its redesigned fan blades the aircraft will deliver more thrust. The maximum takeoff weight will allow the aircraft to carry more payload even farther. Besides the obvious performance enhance-ments, Cessna completely redesigned the interior. The extended fuselage allows for more legroom and room to recline. Additionally, the cockpit is outfitted with the Garmin 5000 package.

Cessna did not stop with the New Citation X; they used their innovative ideas to improve the Citation Sovereign. The New Citation Sovereign will hit the market with an updated avionics suite, new interior, new cabin management system, and performance enhancements. It will be outfit-ted with the Garmin 5000 avionic suite and the Cessna Clarity Cabin management system. Interactive moving map capability and integra-tion of smartphones, tablets, and MP3 players, along with an included airborne Internet system will allow the passenger to stay connected while in flight. The additional of winglets improves the overall performance, enabling the aircraft to climb

Checking In With The OEM’s

to 45,000 ft. and boost its range to 3,000 nm.

Also keeping busy with their new additions to the marketplace, is Bombardier Aerospace with their Lear 70 and 75, both due to be delivered in the first half of 2013. The Lear 70 and 75 are upgrades to the Lear 40 and 45 series respectively. Both Light Jets will have new interior designs and new engines, the Honeywell FTE731-40BR. They will also be equipped with winglets, adding efficiency and increased performance. The Lear 70 will seat 6 passengers while the 75 will carry up to eight passengers. Both aircraft will be equipped with a new interior derived from the Lear 85. The retail price for the Lear 70 will be $11.5 million and the Lear 75 will be priced at $13 million.

Daher-Socata adds to its TBM family this year with the TBM 850 Elite. Its most distinctive attribute is its ability to position its middle seats in either the rear or forward facing position.

This new configuration provides for extended cargo space to accommodate oversized baggage. Other new features include new carbon fiber trim and gold and brush metal treatment on interior fittings.

Hawker Beechcraft is currently restructuring the company and plans to emerge in the early part of next year as a Beechcraft Corporation focusing on piston and turboprop aircraft. They are looking for buyers for the Premier 1A and Hawker brands. There have not been any Hawker 750’s built yet and the current version of the B200GT is now be-ing marketed as the King Air 250. The Hawker 400XPR and 800XPR will remain as modifica-tions, through supplemental typed certificates.

2013 may not see many new clean sheet de-signs, but similar to last year, the amount of effort being allocated to deliver product extensions indi-cates cautious optimism from the manufacturers.

OfInterest

As the 113th Congress gets underway, and officials in all branches of government debate ways to reduce the nation’s deficit, one continu-ally emerging topic is “sequestration,” or across-the-board cuts at all

federal agencies, which were called for in legislation passed by congress in 2011 as a means for lowering the deficit.

As originally conceived, the idea behind sequestration was that it would prove an indiscriminate, and therefore untenable, means of broadly cutting spending to all federal programs; essentially, the prevailing notion was that a more attractive solution would be formulated for tackling the problem.

As the debate over deficit reduction continues, policymakers have several options: they can pass another extension to the nation’s “debt ceiling”, which would allow increases for spending on federal services beyond congressio-nally established budget allowances; they can approve legislation to further raise revenues to offset spending for government programs; they can allow sequestration to enact mandatory spending cuts for federal services; or they can require some combination of all of the above.

However, to date, a comprehensive deficit-reduction package has yet to be agreed upon, and the moment is quickly approaching when spending on fed-eral services will again surpass the revenues available to fund those services. When that moment passes, on or about March 1, 2013, Washington will exceed its debt-ceiling limit.

Absent an overall deficit-reduction plan, sequestration will remain the only means in place for addressing the situation, and under such a scenario, government services related to aviation will be impacted. As just one ex-ample, the FAA will be required to cut hundreds of millions of dollars from its budget for the remainder of this fiscal year.

SEQUESTRATION AND THE AVIATION COMMUNITY

Such an outcome was detailed in a February 20, 2013, letter jointly signed by the Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Federal Aviation Ad-ministration (FAA) sent to several aviation associations, including NBAA. The same day the letter was sent, DOT Secretary Ray LaHood held a press conference to expand upon the content of the agencies’ letter.

Officials from both agencies have met with representatives from NBAA and other organizations to discuss this unique situation. In response, NBAA staff have provided specific recommendations to the FAA for minimizing the operational impact on business aviation stemming from funding reductions; an opportunity to continue the discussion should emerge in early March, because none of the steps contemplated by FAA under sequestration would take effect before April 1.

That said, as government and industry work through this process, the fol-lowing is NBAA’s understanding of the environment, and the concerns it raises for the business aviation community.

First, sequestration is not structured as a short-term exercise. Unless Con-gress changes the law passed in 2011, the budget cuts resulting from seques-tration will have a lasting impact.

Second, as the sequestration relates to the FAA specifically, most of the agency’s budget will be exempt, by law, from the sequester.

For example, funds for the FAA’s Airport Improvement Program (mainte-nance and improvement of airport runways and other infrastructure); Facili-ties and Equipment (the FAA’s bricks-and-mortar structures); and Research (programs including those related to the development of some aspects of the Next Generation air traffic control system) are nearly all ineligible for sequester cuts.

This means, from a practical standpoint, the FAA must concentrate its spending reductions on the services provided under the agency’s Operations budget, which involves the scheduling of personnel (including air traffic con-trollers, flight facility technicians and others employed by the agency); the contract work being performed for the FAA; and the preventative mainte-nance and repair work provided to facilities and services used by the agency and its customers in the aviation community.

The FAA has stated emphatically that safety will not be compromised as a result of the Operations funding used to comply with sequestration re-quirements. That said, the agency’s day-to-day operations will inevitably be impacted; here’s how.

FAA officials plan for employee furloughs on the basis of one day out of every pay period (every ten business days, or two calendar weeks) starting in April and continuing through at least the end of the government’s fiscal year on September 30. Air Traffic Control facility managers will have the flexibil-ity to schedule those furloughs so that they have the least-intrusive impact on each facility’s efficiencies.

In terms of the contract work, the agency will likely focus most closely on the air traffic control towers managed under the Federal Contract Tower Program. The FAA has identified both these FAA-funded contract towers, as well as government-run control towers, with less than 150,000 total op-erations, or less than 10,000 commercial operations that will potentially be closed to meet sequester requirements. In recent public remarks, FAA Ad-ministrator Michael Huerta has suggested that the service reductions at the towers could have a disproportionate impact on general aviation. The list of the towers FAA is focusing on can be found on the agency’s website; however, the list is not final, and NBAA and other stakeholders continue discussions with FAA officials as to the final composition of the list.

The FAA anticipates a denigrated ability to provide upkeep on its fa-cilities and services, including, as just one example, navigational aids (NA-VAIDs). It is generally assumed that preventative maintenance of some NA-VAIDs may require much longer intervals, or if deemed not a high enough priority, may not be restored to service at all.

As the FAA continues to consider responses to these and other seques-ter-related issues, NBAA will work with the agency and all other aviation stakeholders in a collaborative way to help ensure that the aviation system functions at an optimal level, and in an equitable manner, even under such a unique and challenging scenario.

8 CAMP SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL ❖ MARCH 2013 MARCH 2013 ❖ CAMP SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL 9

The Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA) first required licensing of aircraft mechanics in 1927. Ruth

Nichols [1901-1960] and Phoebie Omlie [1902-1975] both passed their exams for an Aircraft and Engine (A&E) License on July 22, 1927 and submitted their paperwork for processing by a CAA clerk. Whether by chance or in alphabetical order, License #421 was issued to Nichols, and License #422 was issued to Omlie. America’s first female aviators were required to maintain and well as fly their aircraft. Harriet Quimby [1875-1912] became America’s first licensed female pilot through the Aero Club of America, as well as becoming the 37th person in the world to be licensed by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI) on August 1, 1911. Matilde Moisant [1878-1964] became the second licensed female aviator in the US on September 17, 1911 earning FAI #44. Quimby encouraged women to learn how to maintain and drive their own automobiles, and once said that ladies could accomplish about the same results as the opposite sex, “if she will only lose that dread of getting her hands all greasy and grimy.”

Blanche Stuart Scott [1885-1970] never applied for an aviator’s license, yet she holds several distinctions among her female peers. Scott’s father gave his teenage daughter a one-cylinder Cadillac automobile in hopes it would deter her from a fatal accident racing her bicycle around her home town Rochester, NY. Instead she became a town menace. After high school, Scott worked as a car salesman in New York City, which inspired her to drive from New York to California. In 1910, excluding streets within cities, there were less than 500 miles of paved roads across the US. Sponsored by the Overland Automobile company, Scott made her own repairs while zigzagging between 175 Overland dealerships which put 6,000 dusty, bumpy miles on her odometer in 68 days.

While traveling she saw her first airplanes, and soon thereafter was pestering Glenn Curtiss to teach her to fly one of his bi-planes. At that time, no flying school accepted women students and Curtiss was reluctant, but finally agreed. The Curtiss Pusher aircraft were not set up with dual controls so Scott sat alone while Curtiss

shouted instructions to her as he ran alongside the aircraft taxiing, hopping, and skimming over the ground. The aircraft was prevented from becoming airborne by a block of wood set under the throttle controls. Impatient and eager, Scott always claimed that the block “accidentally” fell out and she lifted the aircraft to 25 feet to become the first woman in the US to solo on September 5, 1910. Thereafter, she became the first female in the US to make a public flight, as well as the first professional female exhibition pilot when she joined the Curtiss Exhibition Flying Team. Scott’s personal diaries and newspaper interviews describing her career among male fliers were unlike those of Quimby, Moisant, and others who did not dwell on gender discrimination. Contending that her male counterparts had often sabotaged her aircraft so that she would be killed, Scott’s claims were never formally investigated. However, she accurately stated that many spectators came only in hopes to see her “break her neck.” Embittered, Scott quit flying by 1916.

For her contributions to pioneer aviation, Scott was honored on a US postage stamp in 1980. Only four other women aviators join Scott on US postage stamps: Amelia Earhart [1897-1937] in 1963; Harriet Quimby in 1991; Bessie Coleman [1892-1926] in 1995; and Jacqueline Cochrane [1906-1980] in 1996. In 1952 and in 1997, two different US stamps were issued depicting females in all branches of the armed services, including the Air Force. American female mechanics, balloonists, helicopter pilots, astronauts, engineers and others who have made aviation their career have yet to be depicted on an official US postage stamp.

This vintage postcard illustrates the popularity of flying generated by Amelia Earhart and other female pilots during the 1930s. All postcards and envelopes are from the author’s collection.

These commemorative envelopes were issued for the release of Blanche Stuart Scott’s stamp in 1980, and for the 70th anniversary (July 2, 2007) of Amelia Earhart’s last flight in 1937, affixed with stamps for Jacqueline Cochran and Amelia Earhart. [The signatures of Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan, are printed.]

Harriet Quimby’s stamp was issued first in 1991, and Bessie Coleman’s stamp was issued in 1995. Both Quimby and Coleman died in flying accidents.

FAA Academy

The FAA Academy provides technical and managerial training and develop-ment for our workforce and the avia-tion community. Since courses have different admissions criteria, prospec-tive participants are admitted on a course-by-course basis. Certain courses may not be open to the general public, but many courses are available to oth-er government agencies, industry, and international civil aviation authorities.

Services we provide:

• develop and conduct training courses,

• plan, maintain and manage FAA's distance learning systems, and

• provide training program manage-ment and consultation services.

In addition to training FAA and non-FAA personnel in the U.S., the Academy has trained international participants from 172 countries. Many of the world's lead-ers in civil aviation are alumni of the FAA Academy. The continued educational and professional interactions have led to mutual understanding and respect.

The FAA Academy received accredita-tion from the North Central Association (NCA) of Colleges and Schools on March 19, 1991. Each year since, the Acade-my has been found to meet or exceed NCA's rigorous accreditation standards.

When it’s late in the evening on a Saturday and you need a part, who can you call? Duncan Aviation has team members who answer calls 24/7/365. They also use their decades-long experience and plethora of connections to get the essential part delivered, regardless of obstacles.

When a customer in Spain had to be up and running in less than 24 hours, her experience led her to believe customs might cause a delay. So she opted to have a courier hand-carry the part to ensure all customs requirements were addressed along the way, reducing the AOG time from days to just hours.

Cessna Foresees Rising Caravan and Citation Demand in IndiaBANGALORE, February 6, 2013 — Cessna Air-craft Company, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, said today the company foresees rising demand for its Caravan and Citation aircraft in India this year as customers respond to anticipat-ed government reforms.

Speaking at the Aero India show in Bangalore, Bill Harris, Cessna vice president, Sales for Asia and Asia Pacific, said: “India is expected to be amongst the world’s fastest growing economies in 2013 and stands to benefit hugely from a national expansion of business aviation, both for domestic and international travel. Cessna is optimistic that legislative and regulatory reforms this year will re-move several barriers to India’s aircraft market de-velopment. With its unrivalled breadth of aircraft, we believe Cessna is superbly positioned to meet the country’s pent up customer demand.”

Cessna believes one of its strongest products for the Indian market is the company’s Caravan turboprop aircraft, which is a globally proven workhorse for commuter and utility missions in demanding environments. Harris said: “One of India’s pressing needs is to improve its intra-state air links and the Caravan is vastly capable in this respect. Whether operated as a passenger or cargo aircraft, the Caravan can cope with the most de-manding terrain and is perfectly suited to the ex-tremes of Indian weather. With the launch of the high-power Grand Caravan EX this year, Cessna is better placed than ever to offer tough aircraft that keep going under the harshest conditions.”

The company also anticipates rising demand for its Citation family of business jets as India’s econ-omy continues to grow. Harris said: “India is a global force in business, with leadership positions in markets such as information technology, auto manufacturing and finance. To manage their op-erations domestically and internationally, Indian business leaders need the time savings offered by business jets but do not necessarily always want or need a long-range aircraft. Aircraft such as Cessna’s Citation Mustang, CJ2+, XLS+ and Sov-ereign offer an exceptional blend of performance, dependability and value and are seeing increasing interest from Indian customers, particularly from charter operators scaling up to serve corporate and leisure demand.”

To better serve the Indian market, Cessna has re-cently appointed dedicated in-country sales man-

agers for propeller and Citation aircraft.

Cessna announces multi-year partnership with Chip Ganassi Racing TeamsCHARLOTTE, NC, January, 23, 2013 — Cessna Aircraft Company, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, announced today a strategic partner-ship with Chip Ganassi Racing Teams (CGRT) for multiple races in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Se-ries, the IZOD IndyCar Series and the GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series. This partnership extends Cessna’s presence across all three series in which CGRT competes.

“Clyde Cessna founded this company on our cus-

tomers’ need for speed. Today, performing with precision to drive success is the purpose of busi-ness aviation,” said Scott Ernest, Cessna’s Presi-dent and CEO. “The racing industry is built on those same principles – each day teams are mov-ing as fast as they can to get from point a to point b and win, which is why this partnership is such a natural fit for both Cessna and CGRT. The scope and success of CGRT across all components of racing gives us a strong presence as we invest in the sport.”

Cessna, along with sister Textron companies Bell Helicopter and E-Z-GO, is incorporated into every race event where CGRT competes, giving each brand the opportunity to showcase trans-portation solutions to the industry including air travel to and from the host cities, helicopter trans-port from airports to racing venues and ground transportation onsite.

Cessna will sponsor multiple races on the No. 1 Chevrolet SS of Jamie McMurray in the NAS-CAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS), sharing assets with sister Textron companies such as Bell He-licopter and E-Z-GO, one race on the No. 10 Honda with Dario Franchitti in the IZOD In-dyCar Series and one race with Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas in the GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series on the No. 01 Dinan-Prepared BMW.

“Cessna helps make racing possible for my team by getting me to the races quickly and efficiently,” said Chip Ganassi, owner of Chip Ganassi Rac-ing. “With almost 70 races a year separated by hundreds of miles with little time in between, I rely on business aviation to help me keep driving my business and to keep winning.”

In summer 2012, Cessna partnered with CGRT and owner Chip Ganassi at the GoPro Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma to announce the enhanced maxi-mum speed of the new Citation X to mach.935, thus regaining the title as the fastest civil aircraft in the world.

###About Bell Helicopter

Bell Helicopter, a wholly owned subsidiary of Textron Inc., is an industry-leading producer of commercial and mili-tary, manned and unmanned vertical-lift aircraft and the pioneer of the revolutionary tiltrotor aircraft.

Cessna Citation M2 Off To Flying StartWICHITA, Kan., Jan 10, 2013 – Cessna Aircraft Company, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) com-pany, today announced that the Citation M2 has commenced its initial production run in the com-pany's Independence, Kansas facility. The front and aft cabin assemblies for the light business jet are built at Cessna's Wichita, Kansas facility and are then transported to Independence for final as-sembly and delivery.

Unit 800 is slated for demonstrator purposes, and is expected to roll off the assembly line this April. Lily English, General Manager of Cessna's Independence Plant, says the production start is a rewarding moment that possesses its own chal-lenges and benefits. "It's great to see production begin, and see a product take shape. The team

members are ready, and they're thrilled to be a part of bringing the M2 to customers."

The much-anticipated business jet is on track for certification in the second quarter of 2013. "The M2 looks to be a fantastic product for the mar-ket in the light business jet category," said Brian Rohloff, business leader for the M2. "We asked our customers what they wanted, and we worked their requests into the M2 design. The outstand-ing customer response is proof that this aircraft delivers on their needs for mission scope, perfor-mance and finishes. Designing and manufacturing products based on customer use and needs is at the heart of Cessna's legacy and is what has shaped the company's aviation pride through the years."

The M2 features the Garmin G3000 avionics suite, offering design commonalities with the larger jets in the Citation family such as the Ci-tation Sovereign and Citation X. "The M2 has space for six passengers and a private lavatory, features that many of our Mustang customers said they wanted in their next jet," said Rohloff. "The M2 is faster than many comparable airplanes, has a faster climb rate, and has strong value at the entry segment."

Other Cessna aircraft expected to hit the mar-ket in 2013 include the new Citation X, the world's fastest civil aircraft at Mach .935, the new Citation Sovereign, the Jet-A fueled Turbo Sky-lane JT-A, the TTx, and the Grand Caravan EX.

The nearly 500 full time Cessna employees at the 500,000 square foot Cessna Independence facility are trained to assemble, paint, and install interi-ors on the majority of Cessna single engine pis-ton models including the 172 Skyhawk, the 182 Skylane and the 206 Stationair. Opened in July of 1996, the Independence facility also manu-factures the Citation Mustang and celebrated its 10,000th aircraft delivery during 2012. Flight test and customer deliveries are also handled out of the Independence location.

Cessna Grand Caravan EX Earns Type Certification, Performance Tops Initial ProjectionsWICHITA, Kan., Jan 10, 2013 – Cessna Air-craft Company, a Textron Inc. company (NYSE: TXT), announced today the Grand Caravan EX has earned FAA Type Certification and has out-performed initial targets. Powered by the new Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-140 engine, today's Grand Caravan EX boasts a 38 percent improvement in the rate of climb of the Grand Caravan, a figure which exceeds the original 20 percent improvement projection.

"When we started with this design, we knew we could push the performance envelope on the Grand Caravan EX and get it into service for our customers in 'high and hot' missions, but the performance we've realized through the cer-tification process with the new Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-140 engine has truly exceeded our already aggressive performance targets," said Lan-nie O'Bannion, Cessna business leader for the Caravan. With the first deliveries of the airplane already underway, customers are experiencing the Grand Caravan EX benefits first-hand.

"Thanks to the ingenuity of our team and partners, today's announcement further demonstrates that the Cessna Grand Caravan EX can work or play in almost any theater, region or topography in the world," O'Bannion said. "This is the sport utility aircraft for practically any mission the customer might have in mind, business or recreation."

The EX is the latest example of Cessna's efforts to bring new products to customers. Six new or up-graded Cessna models, including the EX, will de-liver during 2013 giving customers more choices for optimal range, performance and value.
