MONTREAL, QUEBEC–(Marketwire – Oct. 8, 2008) – Bombardier Aerospace will attend the inaugural International Exhibition & Conference on Civil Aviation, India Aviation 2008, at Hyderabad Airport from October 15 to 18. With the nation’s booming economy and rapid growth in air travel, Bombardier recognizes India’s increasingly important role in the aviation industry and will have four of its market-leading aircraft on static display. These aircraft include a CRJ900 NextGen regional aircraft, along with the midsize Learjet 60 XR, the super midsize Challenger 605 and ultra long-range Global Express XRS business jets.

“Business aviation is growing at a dynamic pace in India. In fact, Bombardier has already established roots in the country and we are committed to expand our presence even further,” said David Dixon, Regional Vice-President, Sales, Asia-Pacific, Bombardier Business Aircraft. “Our comprehensive family of Learjet, Challenger and Global business jets offer operators in the region a complete range of travel solutions to meet the increasing business travel requirements of this market.”

“Bombardier Commercial Aircraft’s product portfolio is ideally suited for the Indian market,” said Trung Ngo, Bombardier Commercial Aircraft’s Vice President, Sales, for the Asia-Pacific market. “For short-haul operations, the Q400 NextGen airliner is a fast, fuel-efficient and lower-emission 70- to 80-seat large turboprop. In medium-haul applications, CRJ NextGen aircraft are the benchmarks for regional jet efficiency in the 60- to 100-seat segment. For longer routes, the recently launched CSeries airliners are the world’s newest and most advanced single-aisle aircraft designed specifically for 110- to 130-seat comfort and setting new standards in technology, fuel efficiency and reduced environmental impact.”

Mr. Ngo leads Bombardier Commercial Aircraft’s “Team India” efforts with support from aviation sales executives Sunder Venkat, Sales Director – India, and Ryan Debrusk, Sales Director – Asia-Pacific region.

India Aviation 2008, the first international exhibition of its kind being held in India within the civil aviation sector, will be held at Hyderabad Airport from October 15 to 18. It is anticipated that 150 companies from over 30 countries will participate in the four-day event. Four Bombardier aircraft will be on static display and Bombardier will be located at exhibit hall A-37 and chalet 15.
