Buckingham

Template:Infobox Car Brand

Buckingham is a British aircraft manufacturer in the HD Universe of the Grand Theft Auto series.

Description

Buckingham could possibly be based on Learjet, since the Shamal and Luxor are based on the Learjet 45, or Bombardier Aerospace, the company which Learjet is a subsidiary of. It is also based partly on Bell Helicopter and Eurocopter.

The company likely takes its name from Buckingham Palace, which is located in London, England. It may also be named after Buckinghamshire, a county in South-East England, or Buckingham, the former county town of Buckinghamshire.
Luxury Autos shows Buckingham with a car design below it on a window, implying that Buckingham has once manufactured a car.
Buckingham appear to make more luxury and posh aircraft, whereas companies such as Western Company or Jobuilt make more industrial or heavy built aircraft.
Buckingham, like Jobuilt and Mammoth has a defense contract with the U.S government, as they manufacture the Valkyrie transport helicopter for the United States Army.
Though they are a British company, they own a factory in Canada where the Maverick is manufactured.
