Now Fitted with Engines, First Global 7000 Takes Shape
In addition to the new engines, installation of the wiring harnesses and functional test procedures have begun on FTV1.
The first Bombardier Global 7000 flight-test vehicle (FTV1), which is taking shape at the company’s plant in Toronto, Ontario, was fitted with pair of GE Passport engines last week. FTV1 is structurally complete and sitting on its own gear, and thus is expected to be rolled out by year-end. The Global 7000 is slated to be certified in 2018, with its even longer-legged Global 8000 sibling to follow by a year. (Photo: Bombardier Business Aircraft)
