Early morning arrival of this Bombardier Global Express 7500, HB-JIT. The Bombardier Global 7500 and Global 8000 are ultra long-range business jets developed by Bombardier Aviation (formerly Bombardier Aerospace). Announced in October 2010, the program was delayed by two years by a wing redesign. The 7500, originally named the 7000, made its first flight on November 4, 2016, was type certified by Transport Canada on September 28, 2018, and entered service on 20 December 2018. Based on the Global 6000 with a new transonic wing, and a cabin with 4 areas or "zones". The 7500 has a range of 7,700 nmi (14,300 km). The Global 8000 was initially a shorter three-zone aircraft, but was updated in May 2022 as a longer-range 7500, reaching 8,000 nmi (14,800 km) and to be introduced in 2025. Formerly named Global 7000, its entry into service was initially scheduled for 2016. The first test aircraft underwent taxi testing in October 2016. Dedicated to testing basic system functionality and assessing the handling and flying qualities of the aircraft, its maiden flight was performed on November 4, 2016, climbing to 20,000 feet (6,096 m) and reaching 240 knots during the 2 h 27 min flight. 🛬🛫🛬🛫🛬🛫🛬🛫🛬🛫🛬🛫 🛬🛫🛬🛫 🛩️Aircraft Manufacturer: @bombardier_jets. 🛩️Aircraft Model: Global Express 7500 | GL7T. 🛩️Aircraft Registration: HB-JIT. 🛩️Route: YLW - SXM. 📍Location: @sxmairport. 📆Date: 12/23/2022. 📸 Photo Captured by: Franklyn Wilson | @beeksphotos . 🛫 🛬 www.beeksphotos.sx 🛫 🛬 #tncm #sxm #instagramaviation #ilivewhereyouvacation #instagood #teamaviation #aviationlovers #corporatejets #businessjets #bizjets #aviationphotographyphotos #sintmaartenphotographer #sxmphotographer #planespotting #privatejets #passionpassport #privatejetillustrated #mahobeachexperience #bombardierbusinessjets #bombardierlovers #globalexpress #7000 #gl7t #hbjit #12232022 #beeksphotos #swipeleft (at Princess Juliana International Airport Sint Maarten) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmjYtHuOF8b/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
