Bombardier’s Global 7500 jet broke a significant speed record between Los Angeles and New York, a key city pair.

The award-winning, clean-sheet-design Global 7500 business jet left Van Nuys Airport at 7:01 AM local time on March 24, 2019, and arrived at Teterboro Airport at 1:55 PM local time, completing the coast-to-coast mission in 3 hours and 54 minutes, beating the previously held record established by a competing aircraft manufacturer and making it the fastest business jet ever to complete this route.

During the flight, the aircraft reached a top speed of M 0.925 and sustained that speed for more than two hours.

“The Global 7500 aircraft is simply the best business jet on the market today,” said David Coleal, president of Bombardier Business Aircraft. “The latest speed record demonstrates once again that the Global 7500 jet is the undisputed leader in business aviation.”

Since its entry into service, the Global 7500 business jet has been highest-performing aircraft in the industry.

The Global 7500 aircraft includes several perks, such as Bombardier’s patented Nuage seat and the revolutionary nice Touch cabin management system (CMS), a new way to connect with the Global 7500 aircraft cabin through the Bombardier Touch dial, featuring business aviation’s first application of an OLED display.
