Bombardier Global Express XRS reviews

Bombardier improved its already successful Global Express when it introduced the upgraded XRS in 2003. The Global Express XRS bears all of the qualities of its ultra-long-range older sibling but with a greater range and a modified design. With significant improvements, it’s no surprise that the XRS replaced the original Express in 2005.

The Global Express XRS is nearly identical to the original Express, but has a greater range and a modified design. Compared to the original Global Express, the XRS has an increased range of about 1,000 extra nautical miles (from 5,000 to 6,000, hence the model names), as well as an improved cabin layout and more advanced cabin lighting system. The range increased comes by way of an additional 1,486-lb fuel tank at the wing root. Its cabin, unlike the 5000, remained identical to the original Express with a length of 48 feet and 4 inches.

New in the XRS cabin are two more windows–taking the total on the aircraft to 27. The viewing area of the windows is also enlarged to bring extra ambient light into the cabin, especially in the vestibule area of the forward cabin. Interior light is being further improved by the use of a more versatile and reliable LED system. The crew rest area will be moved to the right side of the aircraft, with the galley on the left to provide a more open feel to the front end of the cabin. The crew rest provision will comply with charter regulations for flights of up to 12 hours–two hours more than the current allowable maximum.
