Bombardier aircraft on static display:

Learjet 60 XR aircraft: The Learjet 60 XR aircraft is a proven model of performance, comfort, value and technology in the midsize jet market segment. It delivers a high cruise speed of Mach 0.81 (861 km/hr), superior climb capabilities, proven fuel efficiency and low direct operating costs per nautical mile(ii). The jet's higher operating altitudes - certified to 51,000 ft (15,545 m) - translate to time savings due to better winds, less traffic and less turbulence.

Challenger 300 aircraft: This first true super midsize aircraft offers transcontinental range and superior long-range cruise speed, with eight passengers. It can fly Paris-Dubai non-stop with a full payload and its superior airfield performance allows it to operate out of 5,000-foot (1,524-m) runways with ease(ii). The Challenger 300 jet offers the best performance and value in its class combined with dispatch reliability consistently over 99.7 per cent - this aircraft has exceeded customer expectations since its entry-into-service in 2004.

Global 6000 aircraft: The Global 6000 business jet, formerly the Global Express XRS, features the recently certified Global Vision flight deck and the largest cabin of any purpose-built corporate aircraft - offering more cabin volume and more floor space than its closest competitor. No other business jet in the ultra long-range segment matches the high-speed range capability delivered by this aircraft. Offering the ultimate in cabin comfort, this impressive jet can link Paris-Los Angeles and Paris-Tokyo non-stop with eight passengers and three-to-four crew(ii).

Q400 NextGen aircraft: Optimized for short-haul operations, the "comfortably greener," 70- to 80-seat Q400 NextGen aircraft provides an ideal balance of passenger comfort and operating economics with a reduced environmental footprint. Over 350 Q400 and Q400 NextGen aircraft are in service with more than 30 operators worldwide.

CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft: Since its entry into service in December 2010, operators are reporting the excellent passenger appeal and very high reliability of the CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft. In addition, the CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft is achieving a mission fuel consumption rate that is four per cent better than estimated, which directly results in a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions, equivalent to an average reduction of nearly 700 tons of greenhouse gases per aircraft, each year. The CRJ1000 NextGen regional jet is achieving the lowest cash operating cost per mile for operators in its market segment, while delivering extra range, exceptional reliability and a greener footprint. The CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft on display is operated by Brit Air for Air France.
