VistaJet is forecasting that its four Bombardier Global 7500s will each log 1,400 flight hours in their first year of operations. “We've had four of these put into our fleet; we own all of them,” company chief commercial officer Ian Moore told AIN. “These aircraft are actually at the moment on a run rate of 1,400 hours on an annual basis—all four of them. If you're doing 110 or 120 hours [per aircraft] in a month, if I run right there for 12 months, we're getting to 1,400.
