Coming off the heels of the Olympic Games, the 2012 Tennis US Open is more anticipated than ever. Running from August 27 – September 9, The Open is held in New York, drawing people internationally to come watch the top tennis players compete for the grand prize. The total financial commitment for the 2011 US Open tournament was 23.718 million US dollars.
Last year, 27 year old Samantha Stosur won her first Grand Slam title when she defeated the former World No. 1 Serena Williams. She is the first Australian woman since Evonne Goolagong at Wimbledon in 1980 to win a Grand Slam singles title. This summer, we saw Serena Williams walk away with the Gold medal at the Olympics, overshadowing any loss she suffered at last year’s Open. It will be interesting to see what unfolds this year on the women’s side.
As far as the male players go, we are seeing a nice change in pace. The players this year are a fresh crop of talent; making determining the winner almost impossible. In the past few decades, the major players dominated the game. Roger Federer has totaled a record 17 Slam titles, Rafael Nadal 11 and Novak Djokovic five. Andy Roddick and Juan Martin del Potro respectively are two players who have been able to put a stop to the monopoly, as well as 2004 French Open champion Gaston Gaudio, and 2005 Australian Open champion Marat Safin.
If you are a tennis enthusiast and want to get to The US Open, call Magellan Jets today: 877-550-JETS or visit the website: www.magellanjets.com. With a variety of aircraft (including helicopters) to suit your needs, you will get to the Open safely and in style.

The ZL Encore Driver
When two of the best companies in their respective fields put their heads together, something special is bound to come out of it. Using Ferrari’s knowledge in aerodynamics and Cobra Puma’s knowledge in golf equipment, the companies have designed a one of a kind performance driver. The ZL Encore features advanced multi-material construction, carbon fiber crown and sole and dense tungsten inserts for center of gravity optimization to create a superior head design. The advanced technology does not end with the head, however. A Fujikura Motore Speeder shaft and genuine leather grip brings the entire club together that makes it truly unique. “Working with the Ferrari aerodynamic team was an excellent experience. Their expertise helped us think differently about the design of the club head, resulting in a superior driver that delivers serious speed and distance gains,” says Tom Preece, Vice President of Cobra Club Research and Development.
The Ferrari Sport & Luxury Golf Bags.
A beautifully engineered driver loses some of its luster when transported in a mediocre golf bag. For this reason, Ferrari and Cobra Puma have designed two high performance and super luxurious golf bags that complete the entire ensemble. The Performance Golf Bag features 1680 ballistic nylon construction that delivers the same performance and reliability as a Ferrari sports car. Available in either a red with black trim or black with red trim color scheme, your Performance Golf Bag will be the most unique and stylish on the golf course. The Luxury Golf Bag is truly a one of a kind golfing accessory. Encased in Poltrona Frau Leather, the same leather used in Ferrari GT cars, it offers superior durability in an attractive, stylish presentation. The Ferrari Golf Collection does not end with the driver and golf bags, however. A full array of accessories, apparel, equipment and foot ware are available through authorized dealers and online at ferrarigolfcollection.com.

Pagani, the Italian manufacturer of super luxurious sports cars, has finally been approved to sell their speed-machines in the U.S. market. Now conforming to the U.S. emissions and safety standards, the Pagani Huayra will be available for $1.5 million. Named for the ancient Andean god of the wind, the Huayra’s frame is a monocoque design crafted from super light carbon titanium. Weighing in less than 3,000 pounds, the Mercedes-Benz AMG 700hp turbocharged 12 cylinder engine catapults itself from zero to 230 miles per hour in mere seconds. Inspired by the design of a fighter jet, the Huayra’s frame features four moveable flaps (controlled by the ABS system) to foster neutral vehicle behavior under all conditions and control body roll via aerodynamic means. During breaking, for example, the rear flaps and front suspension are raised to counteract the weight transfer and balance the weight distribution between front and rear axles, allowing a better use of the rear brake force.
The cutting-edge technology installed on the outside of the car is also found once inside. After opening the gullwing doors, drivers will be exposed to the most technology advanced automobile interior available. It starts with a Formula-1 inspired steering wheel. Featuring gear-shifting controls all within a thumb’s reach. The seats provide both the comfort to make long trips enjoyable as well as lateral support required of the g-forces experienced during extreme driving. The multi-function display, centered in the middle of the Swiss watch designed aluminum dash board, communicates critical engine and performance information when in “Sport Mode”, and a state-of-the-art trip computer when in “Comfort Mode”. The high definition central touchscreen is the heart of the vehicle information system, controlling audio functions, satellite navigation, secondary vehicle functions and Bluetooth phone. Currently, four prototypes have been developed and further tests need to be conducted before the Huayra hits U.S. markets. Nevertheless, once they become available, savvy car collectors and speed demons alike will be “racing” to get their hands on this piece of automotive brilliance.

The United Kingdom is preparing for an estimated half a million foreign visitors to descend on the city of London to cheer on their respective countries for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games. 500,000 travelers is an impressive, yet daunting, number that will push the capacity of London’s commercial airports to their breaking points. Heathrow airport currently operates at 99.2% capacity and will be on the verge of collapse between July 25th and August 12th. The surplus of travelers during this time will “add fuel to the fire” and cause inevitable delays at London’s primary airports. Congestion on the ground and sold-out flights make for an unpleasant travel experience and will mark a negative beginning and ending impression for the majority of fans travelling for the games. There are alternatives, however, to the droves of irritated passengers and congested tarmacs. Chartering a private jet to Stansted, Farnborough or London Luton airports will ensure a convenient, comfortable and hassle free Olympic travel experience.
Many travelers have confirmed their travel itineraries as officials are expecting 10,000 private jet movements during the three week period; by far the busiest period ever in the history of private aviation in the United Kingdom. Prospective travelers should be aware that “slots”, or predetermined arrival and departure times, need to be applied for in advance in order to land and depart at London City airport. Farnborough, Stansted, and London Luton will not be subject to slots and therefore will be an alternative to London City. According to FBOs at airports in the area car service and catering companies are still avaialbe but going quickly. Magellan Jets, the leader in private jet charters, is preparing to accommodate the Olympic travel demands of clients around the world. Our expert team will meet all of your needs and pair you with a modern, safe and luxurious jet for your journey to London. Our 24/7 concierge team will handle all of your special requests, no matter how large or small, for all phases of your trip. The Olympic torch will soon blaze a trail to London; blaze a trail of your own with Magellan Jets, and let your voyage begin.
