Bombardier's Challenger 350 Jet Receives Transport Canada Certification

Full Type Certification Moves Aircraft Towards Entry-Into-Service

Transport Canada has awarded full type certification to Bombardier's Challenger 350, with certification from the FAA expected to follow shortly.

"With Transport Canada certification of the Challenger 350 aircraft program in-hand, another significant milestone has been achieved," said Stephane Leblanc, Vice-President and General Manager, Challenger Programs, Bombardier Business Aircraft. "Featuring a groundbreaking cabin design, new range capability and lowest-in-class operating costs, no opportunity has been overlooked to improve on the platform's segment-leading excellence. With increased performance, definitive reliability and unmatched value, the Challenger 350 aircraft has a strong future and we are confident that it will earn the appreciation of executives, pilots and operators around the world."

Bombardier says the Challenger 350 aircraft offers increased performance from the new twin Honeywell HTF7350 engines, each producing 7,323 pounds of thrust and reduced emissions, and increased aerodynamic efficiency with its new canted winglets. The planemaker says this increased power will allow faster time to climb, coupled with increased efficiency, ultimately placing more destinations within reach. The Challenger 350 jet boasts class-defining performance, a true seats full, tanks full, 3,200 nm range and will connect Paris with Dubai.

The Challenger 350 aircraft's cockpit will be equipped with Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 Advanced avionics system. Features of the new avionics include, among others, synthetic vision, dual inertial reference systems, a paperless capable cockpit and MultiScan Weather Radar. The forward-thinking avionics are designed to shift the workload away from busy pilots, allowing for increased situational awareness.

Challenger 350 aircraft customers will be able to count on a full range of 24/7 support around the world. In preparation for a smooth entry-into-service, Bombardier Aerospace is currently reconfiguring a flight training device and Level D full-flight simulator at its aircraft training centre in Dallas, Texas. Customer Services staff deployed throughout its worldwide network of Service Centers, Parts Depots and Regional Support Offices will also be ready to support upcoming entry-into-service activities including spare parts deployments, as well as updated information on the Customer Information Center (CIC) website and the SmartFix Plus online troubleshooting tool.
