Celebrating Bombardier's cutting-edge engineering, from the iconic Challenger 300 to the record-breaking Global 7500 and the upcoming Global 8000, the book highlights their commitment to performance, connectivity and comfort. Bombardier's visionary EcoJet project aims for greener flight, reducing CO2 emissions by up to 50%.

Author

Michael Stephen Johnson is a writer and strategist for brands in the aviation, technology and gaming industries. He is a regular contributor to Bombardier's Experience magazine, showcasing new products and brand ambassadors like Niki Lauda and Sammy Hagar. When he's not writing, Michael works as Director of Strategy at Alice & Smith, a full-stack entertainment agency whose clients include Microsoft, Fremantle and the NBA.

Guillaume Plisson, the son of legendary photographer Philip Plisson, grew up in Brittany, France, and knew how to sail from the age of seven. At age twelve, after his grandmother gave him an Ultra-fex camera, he began photographing yachts on a local river, a hobby that would soon turn into a career. Now one of the world's most renowned maritime and yacht photographers, Plisson has been commissioned to capture iconic superyachts by designers like Philippe Stark and Espen Oeino. His work for Bombardier, which commissioned the famous photographer for an extensive suite of evocative images featuring Bombardier aircraft and characters, represents his first foray into the world of aviation. Plisson regularly covers the biggest international nautical events – America's Cup, Voiles de Saint-Tropez – for magazines like Paris Match and Le Figaro. His work has appeared in publications including Forbes, Robb Report, the Financial Times, GQ and Vogue. He is the co-author of Queen Mary 2: The Birth of a Legend (2004) and Lighthouses of Europe (2001).
