    Bombardier recently added an APU cost-per-flight-hour option that covers “scheduled and unscheduled maintenance events on or off wing” for the Safran SPU300 auxiliary power unit found in its Global 7500 aircraft. Global 7500 owners can add this coverage to existing Smart Parts Plus and Smart Parts Preferred programs, available from Bombardier’s Smart Services portfolio. It also covers “exchange or repair of APU line replacement components” and “off-wing APU repair at Bombardier designated repair centers, including labor costs,” Bombardier says.

    Another Helpful Addition

    The addition of the APU coverage option is the most recent in a string of Smart Services updates from Bombardier over the past year. Other recent additions include coverage for cabin components and landing gear overhauls for members of the Smart Part Plus and Smart Parts Preferred programs. The company says these choices allow customers to “tailor their selected program for their flight operations’ needs.”

    Ensuring The Best Possible Customer Experience

    “We are committed to ensuring our customers get the best customer experience possible, and this new offering for our flagship Global 7500 business jet provides flexibility and important peace of mind for customers of this incredible aircraft,” says Jean-Christophe Gallagher, vice president and general manager, customer experience for Bombardier Business Aircraft. “We’re continually expanding our network and services options to maximize the efficiency of our customers’ aircraft operations. We have also added thousands of parts to our network – as well as a two-year parts warranty, comprehensive price-matching policy and one simple monthly payment for the airframe systems and APU under Smart Services for the Global 7500 aircraft.”

    You will find a large selection of new and used Bombardier aircraft, including several Global 7500 models, for sale at Controller.com.
