orporate jets are flying higher and
further than ever before. This means
that the windows - all of them -
are exposed to increased pressure.
Therefore, inspections for damage must be performed more frequently, and any damage should be
addressed immediately.
With a Gulfstream back in the 1970s, the range
was 3,300 miles with a max altitude of 43,000 feet.
Today, many of them fly halfway around the world at
close to 50,000 feet. "The difference is the cabin air

pressure has to be increased for an extended time for
the extended range to keep passengers comfortable,"
explained AWR.
Lee Aerospace says it has seen significant growth
in the number of owner/operators who have opted
to have their windows professionally evaluated and
repaired so that they can avoid the associated costs
and downtime of window replacement. Additionally,
the company is seeing customers having their transparencies inspected as a part of their pre-purchase
inspections. "Our trained technicians are able to
identify any issues before the aircraft changes hands,"
