Controversial Zimbabwean businessman Wicknell Chivayo—known for his flash lifestyle, political ties, and high-value government contracts—has reportedly expressed intentions to purchase a Bombardier Global 5500 private jet, valued at approximately US $81 million.
The Global 5500 is a long-range business jet from Bombardier’s latest generation, featuring advanced avionics, a spacious five-zone cabin, and a range of over 5,900 nautical miles. It’s designed to connect major global hubs—such as New York to Berlin—without refueling, and includes luxury finishes, high-speed connectivity, and a quiet, efficient lifestyle cabin.
