The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) certification was awarded in February 2019. The flagship business jet received type certification from Transport Canada (TC) and the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in September and November 2018 respectively. The aft fuselage of the aircraft is built at the Queretaro site in Mexico. The final assembly of the aircraft began in Bombardier’s Toronto site in Canada in September 2011. The fifth and final test vehicle, Flight Test Vehicle 5 (FTV 5), made its first flight in January 2018. The maiden flight of the third Flight Test Vehicle 3 (FTV3) was completed in May 2017, followed by the fourth Flight Test Vehicle 4 (FTV4) in September 2017. Maiden flights of the Global 7000 Flight Test Vehicle 1 (FTV1) and the second Global 7000 Flight Test Vehicle 2 (FTV2) were conducted in November 2016 and March 2017, respectively. It was initially named as Global 7000 business jet and was rebranded as Global 7500 at the European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition (EBACE2018) held at Geneva, Switzerland, in May 2018. Global 7500 is a high-speed business jet developed by Bombardier Aerospace. The Global family of business jets is manufactured by Bombardier Aerospace.

The aircraft has a range of 7,300 nautical miles at a high speed of Mach 0.90. Global 7500 aircraft features large four-zone cabins with a volume of 2,637ft³. "Another Bombardier ace is its state-of-the-art ergonomic seat, called Nuage, the result of a seven-year research and engineering process.The Global 7500 features high speed transonic wings.

"Bombardier has also added additional windows (now 28 in total) to compete with Gulfstream's famous lightweight cabin." "Its suite also has a single shower room (which the G650ER doesn't have), and a large conference suite with a six-seater table that can also be used as a formal dining space." "Its four-zone layout and additional space will appeal to clients looking for more privacy - offering a dedicated, permanent bedroom area rather than one converted from couch seating (which is currently the global and Gulfstream flagship models).” This offers some interesting possibilities in the tight space of a business jet. The G650 has a few centimeters advantage in cabin width and height, but the Global 7500's cabin is more than two meters longer than the G650's. "Both aircraft offer the same speed, altitude and luggage capacity."

"Most planes don't go as far as these planes can, so a range of a few hundred nautical miles won't make much of a difference anyway." "Increasing the range is more about generating headlines and showcasing marketing prowess than (it's) really thinking about the customer." That's enough to fly nonstop from Sydney to Los Angeles, more than a Gulfstream G650.īut the importance of distance is debatable. The G650 aircraft has a range of 7000 nautical miles / 7500 nautical miles. While the two planes have different engines, they both carry 19 passengers and travel at about Mach 0.9.īombardier has extended the range of the Global 75 to 7,700 nautical miles and 7,900 nautical miles, respectively.
