Flying On the Bombardier Challenger 650 Business Jet

The cabin’s audio system gives new meaning to the term “surround sound,” says our reporter.

Curt Epstein, a senior editor at BJT sister publication Aviation International News, recently flew from New Jersey's Teterboro Airport to visit Bombardier at its Montreal headquarters. For the flight, Bombardier dispatched one of its Challenger 650s, the latest addition to the venerable Challenger 600 series, and until the certification of the Global 7000, still the newest bizjet in the Bombardier fleet. Introduced at the National Business Aviation Association's annual convention in 2014, the twinjet entered service a year later.
