Bombardier sells four Global 6000s to undisclosed customer

Bombardier announced that it has sold four Global 6000 business jets to an undisclosed customer, in a deal estimated to be worth US$310 million.

With an advanced wing design, the Global 6000 aircraft has the widest cabin in its class.

The Premier cabin available on the Global 5000 and Global 6000 aircraft was inspired by the Red Dot Award-winning interior aboard the Global 7500 business jet.

The Global 6000 can travel 6,000 nautical miles (11,112 kilometres) at Mach 0.85 with eight passengers and can link Moscow to Los Angeles non-stop with eight passengers and four crew members.
