Best Cleveland Aircraft: Challenger 300

Packed with Features

The Challenger 300 is a super midsize jet that fits up to nine passengers and goes beyond with luxury. The plane's seats are fully adjustable, and each seat has a fold-out table and an AC outlet.

The Challenger 300 prides itself on low operating costs and roomy cabin, making it unique among super midsize jets. It can travel from one side of the country to the other nonstop.

The airplane also is equipped with the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics system, using four screens for easy access to engine performance statistics such as fuel flow, torque and environmental control.

Lightening Up

First launched in 2001 by Bombardier Aerospace, the Challenger 300 serves as a lighter, faster, less expensive alternative to the Challenger 605.

The Challenger 300 can reach speeds of up to 554 mph, meaning it can fly from Cleveland to Boston in an hour and a half.
