Bombardier's Challenger 3500 Lands at EBACE

Bombardier’s Challenger 3500 made its inaugural visit to EBACE, where it is on static display this week at Geneva Airport. The super-midsize twinjet—the latest entry in the Challenger 300 series—entered service in the third quarter last year. It joins its larger Global siblings in carrying an environmental product declaration, attesting to the aircraft’s environmental impact from design to end-of-life. The 3500’s cabin recently won the “Best of the Best” honor in the Red Dot Awards for Product Design. “We are proud to open the door of the Challenger 3500 aircraft to our European customers for the very first time,” said Jean-Christophe Gallagher, Bombardier’s executive v-p of aircraft sales and defense.
