Easier if you have the finances to purchase one - the majority would still be tied to wealthy companies and-the-like, which is expected. In addition, I'm not reading a great deal on private ownership in that article, but would certainly be interested in the information.
Prices have moved, due to oversupply - hopefully the long-term impact will not cause big issues for Bombardier or Gulfstream, but the signs are not great, with weak demand still an issue.
Bombadier's new Global 7000 which excluding airliner derivatives is the largest purpose built executive jet with a list price of USD75 million and due to enter service with customers next year is already sold out through 2021 at present
How many will they actualy manufacture a year? saying the order books are full until 2021 is okay, but if only say 15 are produced a year thats not many and 2021 is only 3 years and a month or so away. Also next year could be any given time between January and December that cuts the numbers down even more....
Just curious, I know nothing about these things.....[/quote
Hard to give an exact number,as the 7000 and the smaller, longer range 8000 will come off the same line and Bombardier aren't that open on number of orders however a leading industry analyst estimated at time of first flight at the end of 2016 that there were approximately 200 orders,the majority 7000's
