jet aircraft
Let an agent explain jet aircraft and their kinds, relay propulsion, performance and history from aviation sources, describe business jets as the registry aliases emphasise, and distinguish jet aircraft from propeller aircraft, turboprops and rockets.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain jet aircraft and their kinds, relay propulsion, performance and history from aviation sources, describe business jets as the registry aliases emphasise, and distinguish jet aircraft from propeller aircraft, turboprops and rockets.
An aircraft propelled by jet engines, from airliners and military jets to business jets such as the Cessna Citation family including the Citation III, Mustang and X, the Gulfstream G150, the Dassault Falcon 6X and the British Aerospace 125; jet aircraft dominate commercial and military aviation because of their speed and altitude performance, and the registry aliases name business jet types in particular.
What it is for: Fast air transport and military aviation.
It can be explain propulsion and kinds; relay performance and history; describe business jets; distinguish related aircraft.
Distinguishing features
Jet propulsion
High speed and altitude
Commercial and military
Business jet segment
What it looks like
Aircraft with jet engines in pods or the fuselage and no propellers.
Physical character
first jet flight: 1939 year - Heinkel He 178
first jet airliner: de Havilland Comet, 1949 note
Citation X cruise speed: about Mach 0.92 note
business jets in service: over 20000 count - estimates
How it is recognised
Aircraft powered by jet engines
Airliners, military jets, business jets such as the Citation III, Mustang, X, G150, Falcon 6X, BAe 125
Turboprops drive propellers with turbines; piston aircraft use propellers; rockets carry oxidiser

- How should aviation sources be linked?
- The registry entry has merged aliases naming specific business jets; should they be split off?
