The Global 5000 is a slightly smaller version of the Global Express. It has a range of 4,800 NM. Although the fuselage is five feet shorter than the Global Express, its available passenger seating area (separate from the galley and lavatory) will be about the same. Two Rolls Royce Deutschland BR710A2 engines of 14,750 lbs thrust, power the aircraft. Other than the maximum range, performance is similar to the Global Express. The Global 5000 is slotted in between the Challenger 604 and Global Express in size and price. First flight took place in 2003 with deliveries commencing in 2004.
