Reborn SabrelinerRaisbeck Mark Five Sabreliner 60A is a modernized, higher performance version of the Sabreliner business jet designed more than 20 years ago. Rockwell decided to update the design to incorporate NASA's computational fluid dynamics technology, thereby insuring continuing production of a competitive new airplane and protecting Sabreliner owners' investments by allowing them to convert to the update configuration. Redesign of the airplane involved extensive changes in aerodynamics structure and on-board systems. Key to Mark Five design is a new wing which has greater fuel capacity, increased span and improved airfoils to reduce fuel consumption.
