Bombardier Global 6500 for Sale

It did not need a bigger cabin. It needed a better wing.

The Global 6500 is what happens when Bombardier stops arguing about the cabin and reworks the wing. It keeps the proven Global cabin, 13.18 m long and 1.88 m high, and pairs it with a redesigned wing and Rolls-Royce Pearl 15 engines that Bombardier says burn up to 13% less fuel. The result flies 6,600 nm: New York to Tokyo nonstop, with a stand-up cabin all the way.

It was certified in 2019, and governments now buy it as a VIP and mission jet: Canada ordered six, Sweden flies two and the US Army uses one for surveillance. ICCJET sources pre-owned and new Global 6500s for private owners, family offices and corporate flight departments.

Routes

10 routes the way an owner flies them

The Global 6500 duel. Pick a rival, pick a route and race them. Gold is the Global 6500. Watch who lands nonstop and who stops for fuel, then switch to Who gets where: the gold cities are the ones only the Global 6500 reaches nonstop.

Distances are great-circle from the business aviation airport of each city; times use 487 kt plus 20 minutes, in still air. Nonstop means the distance is under 90% of the 6,600 nm range, a margin for winds. A fuel stop adds about an hour on the ground.

Ride quality

Turbulence: how the Global 6500 rides

No aircraft is turbulence-proof. A heavy, long-winged jet like the Global 6500 rides through chop far more calmly than a light jet, and its ceiling of 51,000 ft puts it above most weather and above the busy airline levels. Its ceiling is 51,000 ft, above the busy airline levels.

In the press

Who flies a Global 6500

The Global 6500 is the jet governments buy when they need range without an airliner. These are public orders; ICCJET never discusses its own clients.

Royal Canadian Air Force Six Global 6500s ordered in December 2025
Swedish Air Force Two Global 6500s for government VIP transport
United States Army A Global 6500 for the HADES surveillance programme, delivered in November 2024 and designated ME-11B

What the list tells a buyer: when governments test ultra-long-range jets for years, this is the airframe several of them choose. That is due diligence you did not have to pay for.

Buyer checklist

What to check before you buy a Global 6500

  1. Engines. Two Pearl 15s: hours, cycles and enrolment in an engine maintenance programme, engine by engine.
  2. Warranty. Remaining factory warranty on airframe, engines and avionics on younger aircraft, and whether it transfers.
  3. Inspections. Status of the major calendar inspections and what falls due next.
  4. Connectivity. Ka-band system and data plan: on a 13-hour sector it matters more than any other option.
  5. Records. Complete logbooks, airworthiness directives, service bulletins and damage history.
  6. Registration and transition. Plan the certificate of airworthiness and the change of registry early. Compare 21 aircraft registries.
  7. Finance. Structure the deal before the letter of intent. Aircraft financing with ICCJET.
