The world's fastest private jet debuts in São Paulo

Bombardier presents the Global 8000 at the Catarina Aviation Show, capable of flying at Mach 0.95 and connecting intercontinental routes from São Paulo to destinations such as Perth, Vancouver and Dubai

Bombardier presents at the Catarina Aviation Show in São Paulo, Brazil, a selection of its most iconic business jets , with the trade show debut of the Global 8000, the world's fastest executive jet. The aircraft is on display from 21 to 23 May, flanked by the Global 6500 and the Challenger 3500, two models that complete the Canadian manufacturer's offer for the long-haul and super-midsize segment.

 

Bombardier's presence at the Brazilian show represents an important opportunity to show Latin American customers the characteristics of aircraft designed to combine luxury, range, speed and operational flexibility.

The star of the exhibition is the Bombardier Global 8000, considered the brand's flagship for a new generation of business aviation. With a top speed of Mach 0.95 and a range of 8,000 nautical miles, the Global 8000 is currently the fastest civil business jet, connecting intercontinental destinations with reduced travel times and increased business continuity.

 

For those traveling by private jet, the advantage is not only about speed. The Global 8000 is designed to offer a well-being-oriented flight experience, with the lowest cabin altitude in business aircraft manufacturing at 2,691 feet when the aircraft flies at 41,000 feet. This feature helps reduce the physiological stress associated with high-altitude flights, helping you arrive at your destination more refreshed.

The autonomy of the Global 8000 allows it to operate long-distance connections between major international cities, such as São Paulo-Perth, São Paulo-Vancouver and São Paulo-Dubai. Particularly significant connections for high-end business and leisure customers looking for direct flights, comfort and time savings.

 

In addition to its long-haul capability, the Global 8000 also stands out for its operational agility. The aircraft offers take-off and landing performance comparable to that of a light jet and can count on an advanced wing design, with unique fins on the leading edge. As Bombardier specifies, this configuration allows customers to operate up to 30% more airports than the closest competitor, an aspect particularly relevant for those who use private jets to reach airports with shorter runways, in hot or high-altitude contexts.

For customers in Brazil, Bombardier can count on the MAGA Aviation Authorized Service Center at Catarina Airport, São Paulo, which provides in-line maintenance, Bombardier spare parts and equipment for Global, Challenger and Learjet aircraft.

 

To support customers in the Americas, Bombardier also has the complete Miami Opa-Locka service center, a 300,000-square-foot facility, designed to expand maintenance and support capabilities. Globally, the company has a network of around 100 service locations to follow up with its customers anywhere, anytime.
