Includes Sydney To Detroit For Longest BizAv Flight Ever

Bombardier announced that its Global 7500 business jet has set 75 city-pair speed records since it entered service in late 2018.

The new records include Miami to São Paulo, Tokyo to Los Angeles, Tokyo to San Jose, Jeddah to London, and Los Angeles to Aukland. One trip in October 2019 was the 8,225 nm flight from Sydney to Detroit, Michigan, the longest flight ever recorded in business aviation.

The Global 7500 has a top speed of Mach 0.925 with a base range of 7,700 nm. The performance attributes were on display with the Tokyo to Hong Kong flight in just 3:40; New Delhi to Tokyo in 7:00 hours, and Los Angeles to Aukland in 11:55.

Jean-Christophe Gallagher, EVP of Aircraft Sales and Bombardier Defense said, “These blazing new speed records continue to show that the Global 7500 is the proven, undisputed leader in its category and the business aircraft with amazing performance, bringing our customers to far-flung destinations quickly and reliably.

“What’s even more impressive about these records is that they are flown as part of routine aircraft movements, including some missions that have passengers on board. On more than one occasion we have been thrilled to have customers and prospects be aboard for the record setting city pairs.”

The aircraft’s Smooth Fl?x Wing that has a sophisticated system of slats and flaps that behaves like a shock absorber and generates exceptional lift on takeoff and approach. It maximizes aerodynamic efficiency, boosts performance, reduces fuel burn, lowers emissions, and exhibits excellent short-field and high-speed performance.
