Airbus has delivered its first of three Airbus Corporate Jet ACJ320neos to business aviation, transaction, and completion services provider Comlux, the European airframer announced today. The aircraft will be outfitted with a VIP interior at Comlux Completion in Indianapolis.

“The new ACJ320neo gives us the means to deliver nonstop flights to even more of the world,” Comlux CEO Richard Gaona said. “CFM International has supported Comlux over the years, and we have chosen its new fuel-efficient and highly reliable Leap 1-A engines to power the aircraft.”

Airbus has orders for 11 of the airplanes, with Switzerland-based Comlux representing the aircraft’s biggest customer. More than 700 A320neos are in service with airlines, and Airbus has a total order book for more than 15,000 of the narrowbody aircraft. The 25-passenger ACJ320neo has a 6,000-nm range.

Comlux’s fleet currently includes the ACJ318 and ACJ319; Boeing BBJ777-200LR and BBJ767-200ER; Sukhoi SBJ; Bombardier Global 6000, Challenger 850, and Challenger 650; Embraer Legacy 650; and Hawker 900XP.
