Global 8000: the business jet of the future takes shape
Bombardier's schedule for its innovative Global 8000 business jet is progressing on schedule. The first production model is currently being assembled in the Toronto metropolitan area, Canada.
The main components, manufactured in the various Bombardier plants, were delivered as scheduled, allowing the sophisticated production chain to advance with a view to entering service in 2025.
Meanwhile, Bombardier's Flight Test Centre in Wichita, USA, has stepped up testing activities. The Global 8000 test aircraft has flown several flight missions in Europe, demonstrating its exceptional operational capabilities in real-world scenarios and receiving enthusiastic feedback from test pilots.
The Global 8000 promises to redefine the standards of business aviation, thanks to record-breaking performance: a top speed of Mach 0.94 and an unprecedented range of 8,000 nautical miles. This will allow direct connections between cities that were previously unthinkable, such as Dubai - Houston, Singapore - Los Angeles and London - Perth.
But performance is not the only strong point. The Global 8000 will also be synonymous with comfort and well-being on board the jet: the only one in its category to offer four true habitable environments, a rest area for the crew, and the healthiest cabin in the industry, designed to optimize relaxation and productivity during each flight. In addition, it will have the longest seat length in its class, confirming the vocation for luxury and excellence.
