Beyond the numbers
What to weigh
- Your longest regular route with realistic load, not the maximum published range.
- Cabin layout and floor plan of the specific aircraft, not just the type.
- New or pre-owned availability, and model succession for out-of-production types.
- Maintenance programme status, which can outweigh differences between types.
- Crew availability for each type in your region.
Notes
Challenger 350
- One of the largest super-midsize fleets, which gives a deep pre-owned market.
- Same cabin dimensions as the Challenger 3500; the 3500 adds cabin and range updates.
Challenger 3500
