About the Bombardier Challenger 605
The Challenger 605 updated the successful 604 with a Collins Pro Line 21 flight deck, revised cabin windows and interior improvements while retaining the wide Challenger cabin and CF34 powerplants. It is commonly configured for ten passengers across multiple cabin zones.
Its blend of cabin volume, baggage capacity and established global support makes it a practical large-jet platform. Production ended in 2016 as the Challenger 650 succeeded it.
