Product Overview
The Global 6000 is one of seven business jet aircraft models built by Bombardier to compete in the ultra-long range large-cabin market. Retaining the flexible wing structure of the original Global Express, the aircraft hosts one of the most comfortable rides in rough air of any purpose-built business aircraft. Compared to its predecessor, the Global XRS, it has improved acoustical insulation with cabin noise levels among the lowest in the business aircraft industry. Cabin pressurization is another strong point.
As of July 2022, 40% of the Global 6000 aircraft were purchased preowned, the other 60% new. 3.6% are for sale with the majority of those (75%) under an exclusive broker agreement. When for sale the average time on the market is 180 days.
Brief History
