“With the Bombardier Global 7500 aircraft, customers don’t ever have to compromise between opting for outstanding speed or top field performance. This incredible aircraft simply offers both,” said Emmanuel Bornand, Vice President, International Sales, at Bombardier. “Thanks to the design excellence of its sophisticated Smooth Flĕx Wing, the Global 7500 delivers the best of two opposite worlds: high cruise speed with the ability to operate from very short and challenging runways to always be closer to destinations regardless of weather conditions.”
 
With its remarkable steep approach capabilities, the Global 7500 is the largest business aircraft to access London City Airport and Gstaad Saanen in the Swiss Alps, providing a testament to the short-field performance and capabilities of this aircraft – as well as its ability to operate at high altitudes and hot temperatures.
