The Ultimate Jet Set

Which have been the most influential business aircraft ever? Our 24 May issue has a special supplement - the Ultimate Jet Set - where we name the 10 types that shaped the sector over the past five decades. There are some surprising inclusions, and we've left out some big-sellers. But our final list comprises the aircraft we think made the most impact on an industry that has grown from US-dominated corporate travel club into a global force. There are also eight of the best aircraft that did not make the final cut, plus the ones that got away: programmes that promised much but ultimately failed to deliver.
