All 12 aircraft are destined for operations in Scandinavia and southern Africa. The purchase is the largest to date by ExecuJet Aviation, which is active in the management, charter, leasing, sale and support of Bombardier business aircraft. Deliveries are slated to begin in the year 2000.\r"Bombardier aircraft are being very well received by customers in all our sales territories," said Niall Oliver, managing director of ExecuJet.
