@ Moffett Federal Airfield, CA
May 2018
One of Google’s business jets departs Moffett Field. Google signed a $1.16 billion, 60-year lease deal it signed with NASA in 2015 to manage the 1,000-acre site with plans to repurpose its three airship hangars. The company also manages the airfield’s two runways and well as storing their aircraft fleet on base. The Global Express is a large cabin, ultra long-range business jet manufactured by Bombardier Aerospace in Canada. First flown in 2003, the shortened Global 5000 variant cruises between Mach 0.85 and Mach 0.89, making it one of the fastest long range jets available today. Nikon D500 w/Tamron 150-600mm.
