Bombardier To Curb Global 5000/6000 Production
The move, which won’t affect 2015 delivery rates, is necessary because of the sagging market for bizjets in Russia, China and other emerging countries.
Bombardier Aerospace plans to lower production of the Global 5000 and 6000 this year due to softer demand in Russia, China and other emerging countries where buyers tend to favor ultra-long-range jets. Because of the long production lead times, the "adjustment" won’t affect delivery rates this year, Bombardier said. (Photo: Bombardier Aerospace)
