N989JR

This entry covers the specific airframe bearing U.S. registration N989JR, a Bombardier-built long-range business jet of the Global family. The airframe is a Bombardier Global 5000 (BD-700-1A11) with manufacturer serial number 9862, built by Bombardier Inc. The aircraft is currently owned by GREAT POINT ADVISORS LLC, an LLC based in Boston, MA, US, which places its primary operational base and administrative oversight in the Boston area. Registry records identify the airframe as a U.S.-registered, fixed-wing multi-engine business jet; no public record of other ownership transfers or notable registry actions are provided here.

The airframe is equipped and configured in a typical VIP layout and is registered with 8 seats. Global-standard cabins for this model generally include a full galley, a stateroom or berthable divan, and two lavatories; this specific airframe follows that configuration. Avionics fit is listed as the Bombardier Vision flight deck with notes that Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion or Bombardier Vision options are available; the installed fit supports modern integrated cockpit operations and long-range navigation. Operational profiles for the Global 5000 typically involve transcontinental and transatlantic missions within the jet’s 5,200 nm range and cruise speeds near 470 kts, with typical basing and support sourced from the owner’s Boston location. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with Global-series practices, emphasizing airframe and BR710 engine servicing cycles and VIP cabin systems upkeep.

The Bombardier Global 5000 (BD-700-1A11) occupies the long-range large-cabin business jet niche, offering transcontinental and limited intercontinental capability up to 5,200 nm and flight levels to 51,000 ft. Its direct competitors include other ultra-long-range business jets that balance cabin comfort with high cruise speeds. Buyer and charter demand for Global-series aircraft tends to favor operators requiring range and cabin amenities; resale and maintenance factors focus on engine program status (BR710 series) and the condition of high-end cabin installations. For this particular airframe, ownership by GREAT POINT ADVISORS LLC and its Boston base are relevant to positioning and mission use within North American and transatlantic markets.
