The skies have a new speed record holder. After years of meticulous design and rigorous testing, the Global 8000, a business aircraft engineered for unparalleled velocity, has earned its wings from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration.
This certification isn’t merely a formality; it’s the culmination of an ambitious vision – to redefine the boundaries of private air travel. The Global 8000 isn’t simply a jet; it’s a statement, promising to connect distant corners of the world with breathtaking speed and sophistication.
The journey to FAA approval followed closely on the heels of Transport Canada Type Certification, secured just weeks prior on November 5th. Almost immediately after, the first of these groundbreaking aircraft entered service, ushering in a new era of ultra-long-range flight in December 2025.
While already soaring across continents, the Global 8000 awaits final validation from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). This final step will unlock its potential for a truly global clientele, solidifying its position as the world’s fastest and most luxurious business jet.
