Coming on the heels of Bombardier Business Aircraft’s massive expansion plans for its Singapore Service Center, the Canadian manufacturer will debut its flagship business jet, the Global 7500, at ABACE 2019, v-p of sales for the Middle East, Asia-Pacific and China, Khader Mattar, told AIN. He believes this airplane is likely to have strong appeal to customers in China and the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, especially after coming off a record flight in early March that busted its published range of 7,700 nm. “I think this aircraft will exceed the expectations of those regions in terms of range, performance and comfort,” Mattar said.
