A6-RDJ Aircraft Overview
A6-RDJ is a Bombardier Challenger 604 registered in UAE with serial number 5574. This heavy-cabin jet operates in the wide-body segment of business aviation, positioned between super-midsize platforms and ultra-long-range flagships. The aircraft is associated with Dc Aviation Al-futtaim, registered through the GCAA.
Bombardier Challenger 604 Market Position
The Challenger 604 updated the original 601 platform with General Electric CF34-3B engines and modernized systems. Over 300 were delivered between 1996 and 2007. The wide-body cabin cross-section, nearly identical to Bombardier's Global family, gives the 604 a passenger experience that exceeds most aircraft in its price range.
Performance Profile
The Bombardier Challenger 604 delivers 459-knot cruise speeds with a maximum range of 4,000 nautical miles under standard fuel reserves. That range covers most transcontinental routes nonstop and select transatlantic pairings with favorable winds. Power comes from 2x GE CF34-3B. The 41,000-foot ceiling provides routing flexibility above airline corridors and most icing layers.
Mission Profile
Heavy jets are the workhorses of corporate flight departments and head-of-state operations. The Bombardier Challenger 604 accommodates up to 12 passengers in a cabin configured for meetings, rest, and extended travel. Baggage capacity and galley provisions support multi-day trips without the logistical constraints of smaller platforms.

Insider Note
Heavy jets carry higher repositioning costs than midsize aircraft. If the aircraft is based far from your departure airport, a deadhead leg adds significant cost. Inquire about one-way availability or empty-leg positioning to reduce the total trip expense.
