Bombardier and Signature agree on multi-year SAF agreement

In Canada, Bombardier and Signature Aviation announced they have reached a multi-year agreement for the purchase of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) quantities, utilizing the Book and Claim system, covering all of Bombardier’s flight operations starting in January 2023. The agreement is the first of this scope for a business aviation original equipment manufacturer (OEM). The initiative reinforces both companies’ leadership role in the promotion, adoption and widespread use of SAF. 

As part of its regular activities, Bombardier carries out several flight operations. This includes production testing and certification flights in Canada, notably from Montreal. Flights between Toronto and Montreal are made with Global aircraft to perform the completion stages. Customer demonstration flights are conducted by a team based in Hartford, Connecticut. New aircraft platforms are certified from the Bombardier Flight Test Center in Wichita, Kansas. Finally, after-service check flights are conducted at all Bombardier service centres, including, for example, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Berlin, Germany, and Singapore.
