Bombardier has announced the entry into service of the innovative, long-range Global 5500 business jet, which was recently delivered to an undisclosed customer.
Last year, Bombardier announced that the Global 5500 aircraft can fly 200 nautical miles more than planned, and now has a range of 5,900 nautical miles.
“This spacious and efficient aircraft is the ultimate business tool, with the range and access to safely take our customers where they need to be,” said David Coleal, President, Bombardier Aviation. “The first Global 5500 aircraft delivery is of particular significance for our employees in Wichita, who recently took on the meticulous work of interior completions for the Global 5000 and Global 5500 aircraft.”
