Bombardier Received Transport Canada Type Certification For Global 7500 The new Bombardier Global 7500 has received its type certification from Transport Canada. The momentous milestone was announced yesterday (September 29th) by the Canadian airframer. With the local governing body granting full validation it is expected that the American Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) will follow suite soon with their respective validations.
"The certification of our clean-sheet Global 7500 business jet is a defining moment for Bombardier, for our employees and for the industry, as we approach entry-into-service," said David Coleal, President, Bombardier Business Aircraft. "Thanks to the rigour and innovation of our design and test program, the Global 7500 aircraft has succeeded in elevating every standard by which a business jet is measured – comfort, luxury, performance and a smooth ride. At entry-into-service, this aircraft will meet the latest and all of the most stringent certification requirements and is set to redefine international business jet travel. We couldn’t be more proud of this achievement." The Global 7500 aircraft has accumulated more than 2,700 flight hours since the flight testing program began in November 2016. Transport Canada validation now paves the way for entry into service later in the year.
