Use case: Bombardier’s Global 8000 is the fastest civil aircraft since the Concorde, with a top speed of Mach 0.95, a range of 8,000 nautical miles (NM), and the lowest cabin altitude in business aviation production of just 2,691 ft.

Standard Hardware Included: The Global 8000 comes equipped with built-in high-speed satellite Wi-Fi hardware, including Bombardier’s Ka-band satellite connectivity system (and support for low-Earth orbit options like Starlink). This provides worldwide coverage for streaming, video conferencing, and heavy data use.
