According to the company, “Sino Swearingen Aircraft Corporation
manufactures the all new SJ30-2 light business jets. Sino Swearingen
Aircraft Corporation's charter is to become the world's leading
aircraft producer by creating a family of cost-efficient, high-
performance, high-quality, superior-technology business jet aircraft
for the corporate, government and military sectors of world aviation.
The SJ30-2 has a unique blend of speed and range capability that is
unmatched in the light jets class of business jet aircraft. Sino
Swearingen Aircraft Company, a partnership between Swearingen Aircraft
Company of San Antonio, Texas and Sino Aerospace Investment
Corporation of Taiwan, was established in 1995 and incorporated in
1997. Its successor, Sino Swearingen Aircraft Corporation, is the
first all new company to develop, build, certify, and deliver a new
design business jet since 1963.
Sino Swearingen Aircraft builds the SJ30-2 Twin Engine Light business
Jet, is a six-passenger, aircraft with a top speed of some 560 mph and
a range of about 2,875 miles. The SJ30-2 was certified by the FAA in
2005, and deliveries are should begin in 2007. Major components of
thislight jet are made in Martinsburg, West Virginia; assembly takes
place in San Antonio. Sino Swearingen Aircraft also maintains a
marketing facility at the Orange County Airport in Southern
California. The company was founded in 1999 by Swearingen Aircraft of
San Antonio and Sino Aerospace Investment of Taiwan; backers include
the Taiwanese government.
Sino Swearingen Aircraft hopes the speed and the range of SJ30-2 will
prove to be selling points against models made by well-established
competitors such as Cessna and Raytheon. The company had booked about
300 orders for the plane by the time FAA certification was announced
in October 2005.
Sino Swearingen currently employs more than 400 people at its
facilities in San Antonio, Texas and Martinsburg, West Virginia. The
company is headquartered at the San Antonio International Airport
(KSAT) in San Antonio, Texas. The headquarters building has over
220,000 sq. ft of hangar and office space and is home to the
engineering, executive, marketing & sales, final assembly/production
line, quality assurance, flight test, and finance departments.”
SJ30
The Emivest SJ30 is an American business jet built by the Emivest
Aerospace. The SJ30 has been under development since the late 1980s
and has been the subject of investment and partnership with a number
of companies.
Development
Ed Swearingen announced a new design for a light twin business jet in
October 1986, the SA-30 Fanjet. The SA-30 was to be a 6 to 8 person
aircraft powered by two Williams FJ44 turbofans and with a highly
swept wing of relatively small area. It was planned to be more
efficient than contemporary business jets, and to sell for $2 million.
In October 1988 an agreement was signed with Gulfstream Aerospace with
the SA-30 to be manufactured and sold by Gulfstream as the Gulfstream
Gulfjet. Gulfstream withdrew from the project in September 1989,
causing Swearingen to get backing from the Jaffe Group of San Antonio,
with the aircraft to be built in a factory next to Dover Air Force
Base, Delaware. This resulted in the aircraft again being redesignated
as the SJ-30 (later "SJ30-1"). The first SJ-30 flew on 13 February
1991, and was demonstrated at the 1991 Paris Air Show, but development
ground to a halt when withdrawal of financial support from the state
of Delaware.
The program was rescued by Lockheed, who arranged a joint venture
between Swearington and Taiwanese investors as part of the offset
agreement for Taiwan's purchase of the F-16 fighters. The Sino
Swearingen Aircraft Corporation was set up, with the aircraft now to
be built at Martinsburg, West Virginia.
It was subsequently decided to modify the original design as the
SJ30-2, with a 4 ft 4in (1.32 m) longer fuselage and wingspan
increased by six foot (1.83 m).This promised a signifiant increase in
range.The prototype was modified and flew in the new configuration on
8 November 1996, and with the intended FJ44-2a engines on 4 September
1997.Amidst construction delays caused by funding issues, two
"as-designed" pre-production aircraft (serial numbers 002, performing
the aerodynamics/stability & control testing; and 003, performing
systems testing) were built and the design entered certification
testing. However, in April 2003, S/N 002 crashed during flight
testing, causing further delays in the certification program. After a
series of additional design changes, S/N 004, originally slated as the
functionality & maintainability (F & M) test article, took over the
testing role of S/N 002 (with S/N 005 taking on the F & M role), and
after years of flight testing, the SJ30-2 was finally certified by the
FAA in October 2005. The first customer delivery took place in early
2007.
The SJ30 is in the "light" jet class, and has the fastest cruise
speeds and longest range of any aircraft in that class. The aircraft
can seat up to six passengers plus one pilot. A unique feature of this
aircraft is that it maintains a 'sea level cabin' up to 41,000 ft (due
to its 12 psi differential pressure) thereby reducing fatigue due to
high cabin altitude on long journeys.
Sino Swearingen was acquired by investors from Dubai in 2008. The
Dubai-based company will become the majority shareholder in Sino
Swearingen, with the Taiwanese government and private investors taking
minority stakes. The company name was changed to the Emivest Aerospace
Corporation.
The order book for the $7.5 million aircraft was reported to be
largely unaffected by the funding setbacks, with the tally reportedly
exceeding 300 units including 159 from Action Aviation.
On October 26, 2010, Emivest filed for bankruptcy after being unable
to find further funds to continue operations.
The original SJ30-1 prototype was on display at the Lone Star Flight
Museum in Galveston, Texas when it was flooded by Hurricane Ike.
On April 7, 2011, a judge approved sale of Emivest assets to MT LLC of
Utah, an ownership group affiliated with Metalcraft Technologies, Inc.
of Cedar City, Utah, a parts supplier for the SJ30. According to a
news article, Emivest vice president Mark Fairchild stated that
according to his understanding, MT planned to maintain Emivest as a
jet manufacturer, though he didn't know any details.
As of June 15, 2011, Metalcraft Technologies, the Cedar City,
Utah-based company that purchased Emivest out of bankruptcy, MT LC,
announced that the new company name would be SyberJet Aircraft.
Metalcraft also owns the SJ30 type certificate.
