Global-M170_1000.jpgNAGOYA -- In an announcement promising more details on October 18 at the upcoming National Business Aviation Association show in Atlanta, Bombardier has given the green light to develop a new large cabin business jet.

So what's known about this new Global? Not much.

Industry sources indicated today that General Electric has been selected to power the new Global, though what engine specifically remains unclear.

We do know this aircraft started its life with the M170 codename and may potentially be named the Global Express II, a stretch or clean sheet design that will match the Gulfstream G650.
