Bombardier’s Global 7500 has achieved a performance milestone by hitting its 150th speed record, averaging 540 knots on 20 missions. Previously, the aircraft has secured records with the longest flight in business aviation (8,225 nautical miles (nm)) from Sydney to Detroit, and the longest-range non-stop mission from London City Airport to Los Angeles.
The Global 7500 has a top speed of Mach 0.925 and a baseline range of 7,700 nm, offering reduced fuel burn, lower emissions, and short-field and high-speed performance.
“The Global 7500 continues to redefine what is possible in business aviation,” said Jean-Christophe Gallagher, Executive Vice President, Aircraft Sales and Bombardier Defense. “Our customers count on us to deliver a business tool with the highest standards in luxury, speed and reliability, and the Global 7500 overachieves on all fronts. Many of these records have been set with passengers on board in varying conditions and airports, making these achievements even more meaningful and reaching this pinnacle more remarkable.”
