The BBD-700 Type Rating is required to operate which aircraft?

• A. Global Express.
• B. Boeing 737.
• C. Cessna 208.
• D. Piper PA-28.

Answer: (A)

A type rating is required for a pilot to act as PIC or SIC in a specific aircraft model, especially when that aircraft is a large, turbine-powered airplane. The BD-700 is the Bombardier Global Express, a large, turbojet business jet. Because of its size and powerplant, operating that aircraft requires the BD-700 type rating. The other options are different airplanes with their own separate type ratings (or none, if they don’t fall into the large/turbine category). So the BD-700 type rating applies to the Global Express.
