After taking delivery at a Bombardier celebration in Montreal yesterday, the aircraft returned to Heritage Aviation’s KBTV headquarters this afternoon. It is now available for worldwide charter.
‘Heritage Aviation is delighted to receive this beautiful new aircraft into our fleet. Its arrival expands our heavy jet offering and places us firmly in the ultra long range, intercontinental charter market. Our ten aircraft, all turbine fleet is more capable now than ever. This is a nice milestone for us,’ said Christopher Hill, Heritage Aviation President.
