Max. Range for ACJ 319

Hello all,

Just out of curiosity.
What's the Max. Range for ACJ 319? Would it make a flight from
Narita to Chicago with an extra Aux. fuel tank? Considering
avg. winds and temp.
Thanks.

Oceanic - it will make it.

Distance is 10,xxx kms NRT-ORD. Range listed at approx. 12,000 kms with aux tanks.

The 319 can be fitted with up to six auxilliary tanks.
The ones I worked on had all the plumbing for 6, but only one fitted.
So it depends on how many tanks you have.

I'm not familiar with the jet stream in that part of the world, but in the trpics (light winds) with 4 tanks it will comfortably do 4600nm. You're looking at an extra two hours so you will need another tank or two.
