Bombardier Global
The Global is Bombardier's family of long-range, large-cabin business jets, built around the BD-700 type certificate. The Global 5500 and 6500 are the current versions of the original Global Express line, a low-wing, T-tail jet with two Rolls-Royce Pearl turbofans on the rear fuselage. The Global 7500 and 8000 are the larger, newer airplane with a new wing, a fly-by-wire control system and two GE Passport turbofans. This site lists one page for each of the four, with specifications only and no flight data.
