N125QS2023 Bombardier Global 5500

Overview

The airframe bearing tail number N125QS is a 2023-built Bombardier Global 5500, serial 60085, manufactured by Bombardier Inc. Delivered new in 2023 and registered in the United States, the aircraft is owned and operated by Blue Dog Air LLC, a corporate owner based in Oklahoma City, OK, US. Registry records and valuation place this specific Global 5500 in the late-production, modern avionics and engine standard configuration for its type.

Operations & Cabin

The aircraft is fitted with a three-zone executive cabin offering flexible conference and club seating options, with typical layouts accommodating 13-16 seats and a certified maximum of up to 16 pax, alongside a forward galley and aft lavatory. Avionics are specified as the Bombardier Vision flight deck (Pro Line Fusion / Bombardier Vision with CVS/HUD options), supporting modern flight-deck situational awareness and long-range operations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its 5,900 nm range and long-range cruise performance, include intercontinental point-to-point executive transport and corporate shuttle work from its operator base in Oklahoma City. Maintenance considerations align with fleet practices for Rolls-Royce Pearl 15 engines and manufacturer support from Bombardier Inc., reflecting contemporary parts and service networks for a 2023 delivery.

Model & Market Context

The Bombardier Global 5500 (BD-700-1A11) represented by N125QS occupies the long-range, high-performance business jet niche within Bombardier’s Global family, balancing transcontinental range (5,900 nm) with high cruise speed (488 kts) and a 51,000 ft service ceiling.
