Business Aviation

The business jets that define the top of private flying, maker by maker: Gulfstream's Savannah-built line from the super-midsize G280 to the record-setting G800, Bombardier's Montreal Globals and Challengers led by the Mach 0.95 Global 8000, and Dassault's French-built Falcons with fighter-jet DNA and the flagship 10X on the way. Every jet page covers the range and what it buys in real city pairs, the speed, the cabin and how it is lived in, the engines and flight deck, and the rivals it competes against for the same buyer.

The market splits by mission: ultra-long-range flagships fight over who connects any two cities on Earth nonstop, large-cabin jets carry the transatlantic working trip, and the super-midsize class delivers most of the capability at half the price. Three manufacturers dominate the top of the market, and all three are mid-way through the broadest product renewals in their histories.
