The Original Ultra-Long-Range Icon

The Global Express XRS (later rebranded as the Global 6000) was launched in 2004 to build upon the groundbreaking success of the original Global Express. The "XRS" stood for "Extra Range and Speed," achieved through an additional fuel tank in the wing-to-fuselage fairing and improved aerodynamics. It was the aircraft that proved a business jet could truly replace a commercial airliner for global connectivity.

Why the XRS Remains a Favorite

Owners buy the Global XRS because it offers limitless mission flexibility at a highly competitive pre-owned price point. It features the "zero-flap" takeoff capability, allowing it to depart from shorter runways than many other jets in the ultra-long-range class. The "winning" feature is its 12-to-13 hour endurance, which opened up non-stop polar routes and trans-Pacific crossings. For the traveler, the XRS provides a massive cabin that remains the benchmark for wide-body comfort.

Performance and Global Connectivity

The Global XRS stands as a landmark of long-range engineering, blending a three-zone wide-body cabin with exceptional transcontinental reach. It accommodates up to 16 passengers in an interior that features a full-service galley and a private aft stateroom with a divan. Powered by two Rolls-Royce BR710A2-20 engines, the XRS cruises at Mach 0.82 with a range of 6,150 nautical miles. Equipped with the Honeywell Primus 2000XP avionics suite, it offers a reliable and proven platform for high-utilization global flight departments.
