The Challenger 850/850XP jet charter is Bombardier’s premier private heavy jet. The design of this luxury aircraft is based on the venerable CRJ200 airliner, delivering peace of mind to its passengers with more than six million flight hours and counting. It represents the pinnacle of reliability and dependability in its class. To date, Bombardier has delivered more than 1,200 of these aircraft to the market, which is a true indication of their resounding popularity among both the commercial and private aviation communities. Powered by a pair of General Electric CF34-3B1 turbofan engines, the Challenger 850 is capable of flying 2,811 nautical miles non-stop. This gives it true transcontinental performance, making it easier for executive business travelers everywhere. This business jet soars at an average cruising altitude of 39,000 and climbs 1,156 feet a minute. A typical non-stop charter flight for a Challenger 850 jet charter is:
- Boston to Miami
- Atlanta to San Francisco
- New York to Los Angeles
For corporate travelers flying on time-sensitive schedules, the 850 achieves high-end cruise speeds of 528 mph. For long-haul jet charter flights, it manages a more economical 489 mph. To reach a cruising altitude of 37,000 feet, the 850 takes 32 minutes. Bombardier went to great lengths to ensure the 850 provides the height of air charter safety. Not only are the airframe and power plants robust and thoroughly tested, the design team outfitted it with many of the overlapping system redundancies found on many modern airliners. At its heart is the Rockwell Collins Proline 4 avionics suite. As a result, pilots fly in confidence knowing they are providing clients with the highest level of jet charter safety available. Everything about the interior cabin of the Challenger 850 is designed with comfort and productivity in mind. It has one of the most spacious cabins in the heavy jet class, and is capable of transporting up to 14 passengers in the utmost comfort. The cabin measures:
- 6 feet, 1 inch tall
- 8 feet, 2 inches wide
- 48 feet, 5 inches long
This makes it the ideal space to:
- Work on a project
- Conduct business meetings
- Relax so you arrive refreshed at your ultimate destination
- Enjoy inflight entertainment amenities
Also, by combining a flat-floor cabin with stand-up headroom, it allows passengers to move about freely. For long-range jet charters, this is a truly welcome feature. The typical floor plan for the Challenger 850 is divided into three sections, which is reminiscent of its airliner heritage. This layout provides a convenient blend of privacy and functionality, making it a suitable choice for larger capacity business missions. Compared to other executive aircraft, the Challenger 850 is simply more equipped to handle larger groups of travelers. Other useful cabin features include:
