Twenty-two years after the 1999 introduction, 150 BBJs had entered service, triple the initial forecast of 50. The 2008 recession placed ultra large jets under scrutiny and were divested by some companies. Some BBJs are operated by governments for VIP transport. BBJ C is a variant of the BBJ featuring the ‘quick change’ capabilities of the 737-700C. This allows the aircraft to be used for executive duty during one flight and to be quickly reconfigured for cargo duty for the next flight.
