BOMBARDIER has officially named Farnborough Airport, home to the
international air show of that name, as its European regional sales
headquarters. Dubai gets the same title for the Middle East. Skyjet
International, the business jet charter programme operator, part of
the Canadian conglomerate, will share the facility. Bombardier
manufactures the Challenger and Learjet ranges of business jets. Last
year it produced 186 aircraft, a 45% increase on the 128 delivered in
2004. Bombardier says that with the increased hassle at major airports
executive jets are coming more and more into their own, even for the
North Atlantic crossings.
