Bombardier’s Global 8000, Global 6500 and Challenger 3500 aircraft provide customers with class-leading luxury, performance and range ideally suited to hot, high, and short airfields. Bombardier’s flagship for a new era, the Global 8000 business jet, is the fastest civilian aircraft in the skies with a top speed of Mach 0.95 and a range of 8,000 NM(1), enabling passengers to fly faster and farther than ever before.
Boasting the lowest cabin altitude in business aviation production at 2,691 ft. while cruising at 41,000 ft.

With its impressive range, the aircraft can connect travellers from key city pairs, including São Paulo to Perth, São Paulo to Vancouver and São Paulo to Dubai.
In addition to its long-range capabilities, low cabin altitude and exceptionally smooth ride, the aircraft remains remarkably agile, with takeoff and landing performance comparable to that of a light jet. Its advanced wing design featuring unique leading-edge slats enables customers to master up to 30% more airports than its closest rival.

Being onsite at the Catarina Aviation Show provides Bombardier with the perfect opportunity to showcase the incredible performance and design attributes of these incredible aircraft, Bombardier is uniquely positioned in the Brazilian market, and we are delighted to be showcasing the incredible attributes of these impressive aircraft.”
