Best of the Best 2016: Business Jets | Super Midsize: Bombardier Challenger 350
“This next generation of an already very successful Challenger 300 product line features well-thought-out enhancements. The fact that NetJets and Flexjet have made the Challenger 350 a major portion of their fleet upgrades speaks to the capabilities and strengths of the aircraft.” —H. Lee Rohde III
“Since its inception in the early 2000s, the Challenger has been a category leader. It has a great cabin and excellent speed, runway performance, and range for its class.” —Kevin O’Leary
“Great cabin, performance, and operating economics for the price.” —William Quinn Jr.
Compared to its predecessor—the Challenger 300—this jet features improved avionics, more powerful engines, winglets that enhance fuel efficiency, and a more comfortable cabin.
The Challenger 350’s range and cruising speed enable it to fly eight people from New York to London in a little over 6.5 hours.
The cabin can be configured to accommodate eight to 10 passengers, and it is furnished with seats that recline fully.
The cabin’s entertainment and communications system includes two 22-inch monitors attached to the bulkheads and ports for syncing the system with laptops and phones.
Bombardier delivered 68 examples of the Challenger 350 in 2015, making it the year’s second most-delivered business jet.
