Need some info on which A/C is better to have/operate (hourly cost, range, maint. Ins, and crew training). and how much is the price of each.

Did you consider the WSCofD?
 
How come you didn't include the Legacy?

Alright, I retract the question... :rolleyes: TC
 
I like the Global Exoress.

It fly reel nyce.
 
We operate both. Good thing that we have the GV since the GEX is out of frequently out of service for one reason or another. I don't think the factory support on the GEX is anything like that of the Gulfstream.
 
aw crap not this again.

Do a search feature but i'm sure WSCofD will chime in. Or he might be at dell getting a computer upgrade for his pressurization.
 
We had a problem with the APU that was discovered last night at 1700 Dominican time. By 0100 this morning, Gulfstream had a G100 and mechanics on the ground trying to get it fixed.

Can't beat the product support.TC
 
Legacy

the Legacy is not the answer because of the range. We need 6000 miles range A/C with excellent support.

Anyone has the price range between the two (G-V and G. Exp.)?

If you want excellent support don't buy a Global.

I think Bombardier is giving them away. Landed at TEB the other day and saw so many Globals I thought I was at the service center.
 
With a WSofD, you're only one fuel stop away from 6000 mile range:D , besides, with all that money you'll save in purchase price, you can spend in landing fees and handling charges. Product support, WSofD never breaks so there's no need for support, and besides, I have it on good info, that WSofD far exceeds any limitations that the AFM may spell out, so feel free to exceed those limitations at will and enjoy a sweet ride!

Best support in the industry comes from Gulfstream.....we've never been let down if one of our planes goes AOG.
 
You can only get that range out of the WSoD by getting the new fancy software that lets you climb about FL 330.

Flown both. GV better.

The Gulfstream G550 cost $45.75 million and includes five years free FSI/Medaire training and Gulfstream maintenance.

The Global Excuse XRS cost $45.50 million.and comes with a roll of Tums to help with the heartburn you will undoubtably have with Bombardier service.

GV
 
Don't hold back, GV. Tell us how you really feel. I love it when you really let go. Only 400-or-so posts to go :cool:

But the WSofD is only $21 million, just think of all the extra fuel you could buy?!?!? Or the extra tech stops you can pay for! With the WSofD you are just 4 (or maybe 5) fuel stops from any point on earth! Why would you need anything else?!?!?! Passengers LOVE fuel stops!
