Niki Lauda Accepts Global 7500 Delivery Long-time Bombardier jet owner Niki Lauda recently accepted delivery of his Global 7500 jet. It also represents the first Global 7500 delivery to Europe for Bombardier. He has previously owned a Challenger 300, Global 5000 and Global 6000 with the Global 7500 being the crowning achievement in his Bombardier fleet. Bombardier is naturally pleased to have shipped the first European unit to one of their more well-known customers.
"We are thrilled to deliver our flagship Global 7500 business jet to Niki Lauda, our esteemed customer for many years," said David Coleal, President, Bombardier Business Aircraft. "The Global 7500 aircraft is simply the best business jet on the market. It sets the standard by which all other aircraft in private aviation will be measured, demonstrated by the prestigious design and aviation awards it has garnered. The Global 7500 aircraft is the crown jewel of the industry." Ramp-up of the Global 7500 is going according to plan and schedule. Even in its early stages of service life the Global 7500 keeps making headlines for itself. The last achievement was one of endurance showcasing the aircraft's stellar range after flying 8,152 nautical miles from Singapore to Tuscon. The aircraft can top-out at Mach 0.925.
