Question Reliability Bombardier vs Gulfstream

Hi all,

My job is to assist a company for an aircraft evaluation and I need some information from pilots flying on type.

In discussion are Global 5000/6000 and newer models of XRS and the G550/G650.

A few mechanics told me, that the Globals are like 150h in air = 150h problem solving. I am not sure how accurate such a statement can be because of the fact, that more Globals flying than G450/550 together.
Furthermore: NetJet sells it's Gulfstream and buy Globals.

There is one thing that can be true because I heard from different peoples: Global aircrafts do not like cold temperature.

However; I kindly invite all Glex and G550/G650 pilots to explain their own experience (while flying, aircraft handling on ground, avionics, entertainment/cabin system, aircraft preperation time, AOG and support from it manufactures, and in general it's aircraft reliability).

Thank you for sharing your experience!
