Aero-TV at NBAA 2010: Bombardier's Long-Range Duo - Introducing the Global 7000/8000

Global 7000 and Global 8000 Aircraft Introduced At NBAA
What a week! Bombardier Aerospace had big news for the 2010 NBAA convention with the introduction of two new jets, the Global 7000 and Global 8000 aircraft. Bombardier's flagship Global aircraft family now covers the large, ultra long-range category with four aircraft models, the Global 5000, Global Express XRS, Global 7000 and Global 8000 jets.
The Global 7000 aircraft features a spacious four-zone cabin measuring 2,637 cu. ft. The aircraft will have a high-speed cruise of M 0.90 and a range of 7,300 nm at M 0.85. It will fly London-Singapore, New York-Dubai or Beijing-Washington non-stop with 10 passengers*. Entry into service is scheduled for 2016.
The Global 8000 aircraft will feature a three-zone 2,236-cu.ft. cabin and a range of 7,900 nm at M 0.85. It will connect Sydney-Los Angeles, Hong Kong-New York and Mumbai-New York non-stop with eight passengers. The Global 8000 jet will reach a high-speed cruise of M 0.90. Entry into service is scheduled for 2017.
Bombardier's new Global aircraft will feature a new high-speed transonic wing, designed to significantly optimize aerodynamic efficiency, combined with next-generation GE TechX 16,500 lb- thrust-engines to deliver significant efficiency and emissions advantages, including reduced NOx emissions -- 50 per cent below the International Civil Aviation Organization's upcoming Civil Aircraft Emissions Protocol (CAEP-6) regulations -- and an eight per cent better overall fuel-efficiency target when compared to the industry-leading Global Express XRS aircraft. Featuring a high-speed cruise of M 0.90, these aircraft are designed to 'outperform' all others, connecting more key city pairs non-stop worldwide through a combination of range, fuel efficiency and balanced field length.

@lucserre and thats why its costs more smart one cause its faster more luxurious more efficient can carry more people etc...

this is a completely different class of business jets

and why do care about the price of a 65 mill jet... as if can afford it

the price is for people who buy range rovers for their 12 year olds who cant drive...

65 Million !!?!?!! That is quite a step up from other business jets costing <10 Million.

I realize this can carry many people much further and faster, but its something over 10 times the price as a regular jet (Phenom 100 etc...)
