Qatar Executive recently took delivery of a third G650ER, making it the world’s largest operator of the ultra-long-range business aircraft. Recently appointed vice-president of sales and marketing Robert Baltus discussed with AIN how the business aviation branch of the airline plans to incorporate the new jets into its current and future plans. The G650 type joins a fleet that also includes three Bombardier Challenger 605s, four Global 5000s, a Global XRS, and two Airbus A319s. “We have ordered three more from Gulfstream as part of the 30-aircraft sales agreement announced in May 2015,” he said.

“The G650ER is…one of the world’s most technologically advanced next-generation aircraft. For Qatar Executive and our customers it truly represents the future of private air travel, offering a superior flying experience with unrivaled design, comfort and class.”
