Dubai's Empire Aviation Group (EAG) has taken delivery of a third Global 6000 which it will manage on behalf of a private owner. EAG handled each aspect of the acquisition and delivery process, and the latest Global will join a more than 20-strong roster. In addition to its owner commitments, the Ka-band equipped 13-seat aircraft which has a range of 6,000nm, will be available for ad hoc charter. It also features plush seating, a well-equipped galley and private stateroom.

“The G6000 really is an excellent aircraft and is a fantastic addition to our managed fleet,” says MD Paras Dhamecha. “Its combination of long range and high speed, cabin design and comfort offers luxury and convenience to passengers. The flight deck is equally impressive and, as a certified G6000 pilot, I can confirm the performance qualities of the aircraft. We believe it will be a very popular addition.”

As well as its UAE AOC, the company now holds a San Marino certificate.
