The Global 7500 aircraft has also set more speed records than any aircraft in its class having recently flown more than 75 speed record missions on a number of key routes.(1) These accomplishments build on earlier records, including an 8,225 nautical mile flight in October 2019 from Sydney, Australia to Detroit, Michigan, the longest flight ever recorded in business aviation.
“Bombardier’s Global 7500 business jet customers recognize and appreciate the many benefits this aircraft provides – and it continues to rewrite the history books with unprecedented speed records and long-distance flights,” said Jean-Christophe Gallagher, Executive Vice President, Aircraft Sales and Bombardier Defense. “This incredible aircraft offers the best of both worlds: it’s a marvel of engineering that is designed to serve as an extension of our customers’ home or office. And that’s what the Global 7500 has been delivering for years – offering the most spacious cabins in the skies while enjoying Bombardier’s signature smooth ride.”
