CS-CHA Aircraft Overview
CS-CHA is a Bombardier Challenger 350 registered in Portugal with serial number 20544. The Bombardier Challenger 350 occupies the super-midsize category, bridging the performance gap between traditional midsize jets and large-cabin heavy platforms. The aircraft is associated with Netjets Europe, registered through the ANAC Portugal.
Bombardier Challenger 350 Market Position
The Challenger 350 updated the Challenger 300 with canted winglets, increased range to 3,200 nautical miles, and a redesigned cabin. It consistently ranks among the most delivered super-midsize jets annually and has become the segment's benchmark for residual value and operating economics.
Performance Profile
The Bombardier Challenger 350 cruises at 470 knots and achieves a maximum range of 3,200 nautical miles. That envelope covers coast-to-coast U.S. routes and most Caribbean or Central American destinations nonstop from mainland airports. Power comes from 2x Honeywell HTF7350. A 45,000-foot service ceiling keeps the aircraft above congested airspace and most weather systems.
Mission Profile
Super-midsize jets fill a specific operational gap: passengers who need transcontinental range and a stand-up cabin without the acquisition and operating costs of a heavy jet. The Bombardier Challenger 350 seats up to 10 in a flat-floor cabin with enough room for a productive work environment or comfortable rest on legs exceeding four hours.

CS-CHA is registered in Portugal under the ANAC Portugal. Contact The Jet Finder to inquire about charter availability for this aircraft or similar Bombardier Challenger 350 platforms worldwide.
Insider Note
Super-midsize jets often operate from the same runway lengths as midsize aircraft but carry significantly more fuel and payload. For operators considering an upgrade from a midsize platform, the super-mid category delivers measurably more range without requiring access to longer runways.
