The Challenger 850 was formed from a blank canvas, made to dominate the Super Midsize market with its larger interior and low hourly operating cost. When looking for luxury aircraft, buyers will be drawn to a Challenger 850 for sale for its transcontinental range and competitive features.

Challenger 850 Cabin Experience

The Challenger 850 is capable of transporting up to 18 passengers and 2 crew members. The aircraft includes a lavatory at the aft end of the nearly 90ft long fuselage, inside the 50ft long cabin. This aircraft provides passengers with ample shoulder and leg room to aid in maximum comfort during transportation.

Total cabin space is an astonishing 1,970 cubic feet, allowing for a height of more than 6ft and a width of more than 8ft, providing customers the ability to easily maneuver around during the flight. Each passenger is allotted 75 cubic feet of space, as nearly 1,110 cubic feet of the inside is purely dedicated to passenger seating.

The door is nearly 6ft tall, allowing many customers to avoid bending down to simply enter the aircraft, and baggage is provided more than 200 cubic feet of space inside the cabin, a feat many competing aircraft can't reach.

Challenger 850 Mission Profile

Customers who buy a Challenger 850 are those focused on the longer, cross-country trips with large groups of people. This aircraft also saves buyers money, as improvements from its predecessors aid in increased fuel efficiency. The Challenger 850 also is built so that it can withstand the number of takeoffs an average airliner witnesses, thus promoting substantial durability through usage and weather. That being said, its an aircraft which is meant to be put to good use.

The Challenger 850 needs longer runways to take off, so the focus destinations for its travelers should be those of larger cities, rather than less popular destinations. Because of the time it takes this aircraft to get to altitude, once again equal to that of an airliner, generally it's flown at altitude with those aircraft, so additional time will be needed to get to a destination when compared to a similar jet in its class.
