N117TF2024 Bombardier Global 7500

Overview

This airframe, registered as N117TF, is a 2024 build of the Bombardier BD-700-2A12 Global 7500 with manufacturer serial number 70192. The aircraft is owned by Tgav LLC, a corporate owner based in Stamford, CT, US, and is registered in the US registry; registry records list 22 seats for this airframe. No public history of prior civilian owners or major registry transfers beyond the initial corporate registration is recorded in the supplied data.

Operations & Cabin

The airframe is fitted with a multi-zone four-living-space executive cabin layout in operator-specific configuration; while the Global 7500 typically accommodates 8-19 passengers in standard business layouts, the registry for this specific airframe documents 22 seats. Avionics are the Bombardier Vision flight deck featuring four large displays, full fly-by-wire controls, HUD, EVS, SVS, graphical flight planning and CPDLC, supporting long-range, high-altitude operations. Typical mission profiles for this configuration emphasize intercontinental point-to-point executive transport across transoceanic routes enabled by the 7,700 nm range and cruise speed near 488 kts. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe align with heavy OEM-supported programs for the Global 7500 family and GE Passport engine maintenance requirements given the twin GE Passport 20-19 powerplants.

Model & Market Context

The Bombardier BD-700-2A12 Global 7500 occupies the ultra-long-range business jet niche, offering transoceanic capability, high cruise speed and a 51,000 ft service ceiling that appeals to corporate and charter buyers. Its direct competitors include other ultra-long-range bizjets; demand in the owner/operator and charter markets favors examples with modern avionics and four-zone cabins, attributes present on this airframe.
