Bombardier has announced that its Challenger 350 business jet has reached 300 deliveries faster than any other model in the medium and large categories of this aircraft type (www.bombardier.com).

This landmark comes as the Challenger 350 was also recognised by Robb Report magazine as the ‘Best of the Best’ super-mid-size aircraft for the second year running.

Peter Likoray, senior vice-president (world-wide sales and marketing), said: “The delivery of the 300th Challenger 350 business just five years after its entry-into-service represents another exciting milestone for Bombardier, and underscores the trust our customers place in this industry-leading aircraft.

“We are equally delighted that it has been honoured by Robb Report.”

Challenger aircraft are assembled at Bombardier Aviation’s ‘multi-faceted facility’ in Montreal, Quebec, which undertakes ‘end-to-end’ assembly, completion, pre-flight and delivery activities for the Challenger 350 and Challenger 650 programmes.

In the last decade, Challenger 300-series aircraft have accounted for more deliveries than any other business jet platform in the industry.
