Largest Business Jet

Go on a tour with the world's largest business jet.

In order to captivate prospective owner aircraft with the Bombardier G7000 Business Jet, Bombardier constructed a fully-fledged 110-foot model of the aircraft and displayed it at air shows and luxurious functions throughout the state. You can now take an on-line videotour through the aircraft's unrivalled comforts. Among the fixtures are large ultra-large shutters - almost twice the dimensions of other globals - a six-seat dinner area, a full bathroom main bedroom, a full kitchen, a movie theatre and wooden flooring.

This 60-foot, four-zone stateroom will be the largest of all genuine business jet aircraft, with the exception of the bigger passenger planes designed for personal use.

Electronical and electrical engineering company EBACE: Bombardier names largest business jet Global 7500 new.

Cookie, remove yourself from this field or click on "Close". The Global 7000 is no longer available. The Bombardier flag ship, which will make its EBACE début on the structural indicator five years after takeoff and 18 month after its maiden voyage, will be renamed Global 7500 today. It is important for the aircraft manufacturer in Canada that the Global 7500 now outperforms its archrival Gulfstream 650ER in flying capability.

Looking ahead, the longer-term Global 8000 is still uncertain. The orders for this version - which came on the market at the same one as the Global 7500 - were placed very slowly, and while Bombardier insisted that the smaller version was still an "active programme", there are no concrete development projects for testers.

The extent to which the Global 7500 assortment gives it a competitive advantage in a highly branded environment is a controversial issue. There are only a small number of flights that are carried out with ultra-long-haul planes that are close to their peak stamina, and if you have to stop to fill up with a 16-hour plane, this may not be the most undesirable distraction for operators, crews or occupants.

Bombardier says, however, that the model, which is scheduled to go into operation in the second half of the year, will open new non-stop urban couples such as New York to Hong Kong and Singapore-San Francisco. They believe that this will be a distinguishing feature for wealthy private persons whose business they conduct between these towns and for whom it is rewarding to save money on a one-way ticket.

Moreover, the offer of the longest reach on the open markets, if not nothing else, gives credibility to other service demands. This includes a take-off and landing ability that competes with lightweight airplanes and gives the Global 7500 easy airport entry with shorter take-off and runway lengths, Bombardier said. Its slow aerodynamic characteristics also meant that, unlike some of its rival planes, the plane could easily make a run at London City heights.

"Besides the expanded cruising distance, we are very proud of the aircraft's behaviour," says Stephen McCullough, program head inengineer. "With the longest cab on the open road at 16 years. 5 meters longer than the Dassault Falcon 8X, the Global 7500 is Bombardier's only airplane in its "four customizable residential areas" series.

It also has a full-size cuisine ( "Bombardier" preferred the word over "galley") and a number of other cab interior improvements, some of which will be introduced at the show. It is a rarity on other Globals, as it is difficult to adapt them to models which hardly ever take longer than 6-7 hours to get into service.

One of five test cars is the plane shown at EBACE. Basically, the test flying program of this plane is finished as Tombardier takes the last obstacles for the program certifications. FTV4 was used by Bombardier for the validation of the passenger compartment. With the 7500, the EBACE spotlight is shared with a 6000 fitted with the new 7000-inspired cab that was unveiled by Bombardier last year in Geneva for the 6000 and 5000.

Whereas the Global 7500 is the original at EBACE this weekend because it is an early test flying example, exhibition attendees will not be able to see the cab as they did in Singapore and Dubai in February last year, where Bombardier presented the full-size model of the cab - but not at the trade shows themselves, but offline.

Bombardier and the former aero engines maker described the aircraft as an "isolated event", but the test aircraft flew again two flights later. However, the Global 7000 will come on stream two years later than initially scheduled for market introduction in 2013. Since the beginning of last year, customers have been producing Global 7500 custom models at Bombardier's Downsview facility in Toronto.

At Dorval in Montreal, the project will be completed in an area that was initially intended for the other globals. The equipment for the G5000 is currently being moved to the manufacturer's US plant in Wichita, Kansas, where the Learjet 70/75 is already being completed. Meanwhile, the finishes of the 6000 will be moved to another building in Dorval by the end of the year.

Boombardier has recruited to fill approximately 1,000 new roles on the Global 7500 Complete Line as manufacturing increases. Even though it will not say how many orders it has for its latest jet, the company has said that it will sell out at least until 2021. At the beginning of the year, head of Bombardier Alain Bellemare stressed that between 2020 and 2021 annual shipments of around 40 units would "mature" production:

" However, while an impressing balance can be drawn, 40 planes lag far behind the more than 80 combinations of the smaller Glob 5000 and 6000 units delivered by Bombard each year until 2016. Flag ship of Bombardier Business Aircraft, the 7500 played an important part in the company's business development and may have gained in importance last October when Airbus and Bombardier signed an agreement to form a partnership with the Quebec authorities to produce and commercialize the CSeries passenger jet.

This makes the Global 7500 the largest airplane under Bombardier command - its body is only 1 metre less than the CS100 and its span is 3.4 metres less. Bombardier's ability to provide 16 hours of uninterrupted service on a Global 7500 required it to create an environment in which a client and his immediate families or co-workers would be at home all the time.

"We had to take our comforts to a whole new dimension because of the nature of the operations the plane will be flying," says Jean-Christophe Gallagher, Executive Vice-President and General Manager Customers Experience back at Bombardier. What we did was to make the airplane a great deal more comfortable to use. This April, in the midst of the very unburdened 2018 Global Conference environment at the Milken Institute in Beverly Hills - a $50,000 meeting for affluent private citizens, financers and other business creators - in April, Bombardier presented its Nuage headquarters for the Global 7500.

Its name - French for clamp - is meant to recall the breezy microgravity and is described by Bombardier as the first "deep reclining seat" in the world. During EBACE, Bombardier will present its Nice Touch cab care system, which has been designed with Lufthansa Technik for the Global 7500. Unveiled silently to the loaded customer in a back room at NBAA and equipped as part of the FTV4 test plane's passenger compartment, the NBAA FTV4 incorporates a "retractable sideshift" for controlling cabins and entertaining facilities, and is the first ever use of an organically light-emitting LED indicator that both parties maintain.

"We' ve been working on it for four years and we' ve done it three designs until we felt we had done it right," says Philip von Schroeter, senior director of OEM business unit at Lufthansa Technik. Global 7500 cab control system also incorporates "suite controllers", i. e. ports attached to the compartment that offer a second way of managing the cab area.

Available on iPhones, iPhones and Android appliances, an application provides easy accessibility to a broad choice of medias and features pre-set illumination systems that provide "limitless individual color options for the ultimate cab ambience". Whilst the Global 7500's unprecedented bandwidth is without a doubt one of its main features, what's in the cab is often the most distinguishing feature when it comes to selecting a business aircraft, says Brad Nolen, Bombardier Business Aircraft VP of Corporate Communications and Products & Strategic Planning.

All of the business jet flight experiences continue to evolve," he says. "With more and more rivals coming into the air and planes continuing to fly and you having more and more options, humans are shifting away from reach and velocity and more to things like the sound levels in planes.
