Steady Progress Towards Entry-Into-Service
• G500 and G600 Pratt & Whitney Canada engines certified
• G500 flight test program progressing toward certification
- Five aircraft currently flying
• G600 Flight test program has commenced ahead of schedule
- Four aircraft currently flying
- Fifth aircraft in Completions Center for outfitting of interior for flight test
• Extensive work accomplished to ensure a smooth entry into service
- Training
- Publications

Leveraging the Success of the G650
• G650 systems serve as the baseline for the G500 and G600
- Hydraulic, Electrical Power Generation, Secondary Power, Avionics, Auxiliary
Power Unit, Air Data System, SatcomNHF/NavCom, Cabin Management, Cabin
Acoustic Treatment
• Common Architecture / Design
- Fly-by-wire and Actuation
- Cabin Pressurization & Control (same low cabin altitude as G650)
- Landing Gear Control
- Aircraft Health and Trend Monitoring System (AHTMS)
- Aerodynamic and structural design philosophy
• G650 fleet experience has paved the way for the G500 and G600
- Over 242 aircraft in-service
- Over 185,000 fleet flying hours

G500 and G600 Commonality
1
' • The G500 and G600 have significant commonality
- 73% total parts commonality
- Engines, flight deck, major systems, fuselage, doors, windows,
vertical tail and cabin components
EFTA00611109
"In BCA's opinion, they provide a significant improvement
in situational awareness from older passive sidesticks."
EFTA00611110
Dedicated G500/G600 Systems Test Labs
• Unprecedented lab testing of all aircraft systems to promote accelerated
aircraft maturity
- System labs began full-scale testing before flight testing started to eliminate
potential issues
- Labs continue to support flight testing to verify and correct issues found in flight
• Multiple lab environments are in use
- Immersive Simulation Environment (ISE) for control law development
- System Integration Bench (SIB) for pre-integration of the Data Concentration
Network
- Cockpit Integration Test Facility (ITF)
• Major avionics systems, including flight deck, electrical power, FADEC,
systems control and cabin systems
- Cabin Integration Test Facility (ITF) Cabin Systems Integration
- Iron Bird for major mechanical systems, flight controls, and hydraulics integration
