New Bombardier Jets

[mzaharis]

Looks like Bombardier is responding to the G650.

Global 7000 -7,300 NM range at .85 ("at certain operating conditions" - their qualification), 2,637 cu. ft cabin, high speed cruise .90
Global 8000 - 7,900 NM range at .85(at certain operating conditions), 2,236-cu.ft cabin, .90 MMO.

Rather aggressive response to the G650 - it will be interesting to see how the 3 compare in real life.

I think 0.90M is HSC, not MMo on those Globals.

You are correct - my mistake. I had corrected it on one of the entries, but not the other.

Interestingly, a thread I myself started! I should have posted this latest comment to that. Thanks.
