BOMBARDIER/CHALLENGER 850 SERIES

Bombardier Challenger 850 Series for Sale — Airliner Comfort in a Business Jet

The Bombardier Challenger 850 occupies a unique and compelling position in the business jet market: it delivers an interior volume that approaches small regional airliner proportions while operating with the flexibility and economics of a purpose-built business aircraft. Based on the Bombardier CRJ-200 regional jet airframe, the Challenger 850 stretches the proven CRJ platform into a true large-cabin executive transport with a flat-floor cabin 5.8 feet wide and 6 feet tall at the centerline — dimensions that accommodate configurations ranging from 6 passengers in maximum VIP comfort to 19 passengers in high-density transport layout. No other aircraft in the business jet market at the Challenger 850's price point comes close to matching its interior volume per dollar of acquisition cost.

The Regional Jet Foundation

The Challenger 850's CRJ-200 heritage is its greatest structural advantage. The airframe has accumulated tens of millions of flight cycles across the world's regional airline fleets — an extraordinary real-world durability database that gives buyers confidence in the structural integrity of the design. The General Electric CF34-3B1 engines have been refined over decades of commercial service, with parts and overhaul support available from a deep global network of CF34-qualified facilities. When a Challenger 850 needs maintenance, the infrastructure to support it exists across every major aviation market in the world.

Who Buys the Challenger 850?
