Bombardier Aviation is projected to deliver about 154 business jets this year, up from 142 aircraft last year, as it continues to ramp up Global 7500 production, Bombardier Inc. president and CEO Alain Bellemare said today during the company’s fourth-quarter/year-end investor call. The 2019 total included 12 Learjets, 76 Challengers, and 54 Globals, compared with 137 aircraft (12 Learjets, 83 Challengers, and 42 Globals) in 2018. It also plans to deliver six CRJs this year, down from 33 last year, as it exits the airliner segment.
