Bombardier Challenger Business Jet Family

The Bombardier Challenger family spans large-cabin business jets descended from the Canadair CL-600 and the later super-midsize Challenger 300 line. The original Challenger helped establish a wide, stand-up cabin in a purpose-built corporate jet, while successive 600-series and 300-series aircraft improved range, systems, and operating efficiency. Challenger platforms also support government, medical, calibration, and other specialized missions.
