As part of a major consolidation project that it says will save $25 million a year, Bombardier has embarked on an 18-month project to consolidate all Learjet production, completions and deliveries in Wichita, and all such Challenger work in Montreal.

Specifically, Learjet 40, 45 and 60 completions will be moved from Tucson, Ariz., to Wichita, where the airplane is currently assembled. Completions of Challengers, also now performed in Tucson, will move to Montreal, where the Challenger 604 and 800 and the Global Express are built. Assembly of the new Challenger 300 will move from Wichita to Montreal. The new Global 5000, and Global Express XRS, will also be built in Montreal.
