Bombardier Aerospace is heading to an airshow in Istanbul next week as it continues to try to land aircraft orders in developing markets such as Turkey, which it views as having "breakout" potential. The Montrealbased division of plane and train giant Bombardier Inc. is bringing its Learjet 60XR, Challenger 605 and Global 6000 business jets along with material about its commercial planes to the four-day show. The ninth annual International Civil Aviation and Airports Exhibition opens next Thursday. Bombardier has recently boosted its sales force in developing countries and sees the Middle East and Turkey as opportunities. The region is expected to take delivery of 1,185 business jets over the next 20 years.
