N113QS 2015 Bombardier Global 5000

Overview

This entry covers airframe N113QS, a 2015-built Bombardier BD-700-1A11 Global 5000 with serial number 9722. The aircraft is owned by Netjets Sales Inc, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and is U.S.-registered (US). Ownership by a fractional/managed operator such as Netjets Sales Inc indicates the airframe is maintained to high-cycle dispatch standards and is typically operated from the operator’s primary bases in the United States.

Operations & Cabin

This airframe carries an 8-place executive layout (NetJets configuration) designed for long-range corporate and fractional missions, prioritizing passenger comfort for transcontinental and extended overwater sectors enabled by a 4,800 nm range. The flight deck on this Global 5000 conforms to the Bombardier Vision (Global Vision) standard common to the type; avionics fit may include Honeywell or Rockwell variants depending on retrofit history, so specific avionics equipment can vary by retrofit or fleet standardization. With twin Rolls-Royce BR700-710A2-20 powerplants producing 14,750 lbf each, the airplane sustains high-speed cruise near 487 kts and operations up to 51,000 ft, suiting both high-altitude efficiency and long-range corporate routing. Maintenance and operational considerations for this specific airframe align with NetJets’ fleet management practices, emphasizing recurring inspections and component tracking consistent with fractional ownership.

Model & Market Context

The Bombardier BD-700-1A11 Global 5000 occupies the long-range, large-cabin business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability and a high-speed cruise profile attractive to corporate and fractional operators.
