James Dillon-Godfray, head of Business Development at the airport adds, ‘With our close proximity to Heathrow or Birmingham airports, access back home for positioning crews is simple, but for those staying with their aircraft locally, Oxford is a really-user-friendly base with superb local amenities and plenty to see locally from Blenheim Palace to Bicester Village or indeed the beautiful university city of Oxford itself.’
Neil Plumb from JMI adds, ‘Having operated out of London Oxford for over 20 years, the airport works very well geographically and from an ease- of-use perspective for our prospective clients, it is close to London but with sensible costs.’
Initial operations will be focused on the more popular Citation 510 (Mustang), 525 Series (CJ Series), 560 (Excel/XLS), Falcon 2000 and 900 models but will evolve to meet customer demand.

ASTRONAUT MICHAEL COLLINS TO HIGHLIGHT APOLLO 11 50TH ANNIVERSARY AT EAA
AIRVENTURE OSHKOSH 2019 Apollo 11 command module pilot Michael Collins will be the featured guest as EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019 commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission, which in July 1969 marked the fi rst time men landed on the moon and returned safely. EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019, the 67th annual Experimental Aircraft Association fl y-in convention, is July 22-28 at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, WI.
Collins will be will be joined by
fellow Apollo astronaut Joe Engle during the evening program at Theater in the Woods on Friday, July 26, hosted by four-time space
shuttle astronaut Charlie Precourt. The program will highlight the millions of man-hours and hundreds of thousands of people who made the fi rst manned moon landing possible. “Even a half-century later, the Apollo 11 mission stands as one of the great human achievements of all time,” says Rick Larsen, EAA’s vice president of communities and member programs, who coordinates AirVenture features and attractions. “We are honored to have Michael Collins, Joe Engle, and others take us back to the memorable ‘one giant leap for mankind.’ We know this will be a hugely popular evening program that will make EAA AirVenture 2019 even more of a must-attend event.” Collins, mission commander Neil
Armstrong, and lunar module pilot Buzz Aldrin departed then-Cape
Kennedy, FL, on July 16, 1969, as the famed Saturn V rocket lifted the trio into space. On July 20, the lunar module landed on the moon’s surface, with the fi rst human steps by Armstrong and Aldrin on the surface a few hours later. Apollo 11 made a successful splashdown in the Pacifi c Ocean on July 24, 1969. Collins’ NASA career began in 1963 as part of the third group of astronauts selected. His fi rst space fl ight was aboard the Gemini 10 mission with John Young in 1966, when Collins became America’s third spacewalker. Prior to his career at NASA, he earned his college degree at West Point and built fl ight time in U.S. Air Force F-86 Sabres at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada, as well as serving at George Air Force Base and Edwards Air Force Base in California.
