Challenger 604 For Sale

The Bombardier Challenger 604 is a wide body, long range business jet that entered service in 1996 as a successor to the Challenger 601. With a range of 4,000 nautical miles, it can fly nonstop between most major city pairs across the Atlantic, making it a practical choice for international operations.

The aircraft is powered by two General Electric CF34-3B engines, each producing 9,220 pounds of thrust. It typically seats between 10 and 19 passengers depending on interior configuration, with a stand up cabin height of 6 feet 1 inch and a cabin width of 8 feet 2 inches, making it one of the widest cabins in the super midsize to large cabin category.

Performance and Specifications

The Challenger 604 cruises at Mach 0.80 with a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.82. Its takeoff distance is approximately 5,460 feet at maximum takeoff weight of 48,200 pounds. The aircraft was produced until 2007, when it was succeeded by the Challenger 605. Over 300 Challenger 604s were built, and the type maintains a strong presence on the used market.

Buying a Pre Owned Challenger 604

When evaluating a used Challenger 604, consider total airframe hours, engine and APU time remaining, and compliance with Bombardier service bulletins. The aircraft's Collins Pro Line 4 avionics can be upgraded to Pro Line 21, which is a common modification that adds value. Interior condition and configuration vary significantly between examples, as many operators have customised their cabins for specific mission profiles.
