Need details on a Challenger 602
Hello,
I am trying to gather information on the aircraft that exploded at Montrose earlier today. I did a search on a confirmed Challenger 602. I got a few hits but the best I could gather was that the craft rated somewhere between a Learjet and a Citation in nature which really doesn't tell me a whole hell of a lot. Please enlighten me! Thanks |

Thanks Karl,
If one tries typing in the aircraft in doubt, there are quite a few hits that infer a LEAR, a Cessna, and as the media has called it, wrongly, a Gulfstream. Just needed to be correct with the facts. Even the company's home base was stated to be NJ, when in fact it is CA. Thanks for the clarification--- The Challenger CL600 series twin jets are made by Canadair. They are large corporate intercontental jets usually with a seating of 10-12 with a stand up cabin and potty. They are larger than most common 30 series Lears and 500 series Citations. Sorry if the next doesn't format.

Just drop in at your local Taco Bell and ask any burger chef.
They all have ratings in the type. GF |

Thanks for the clarification--- Bob...next time you log-on with a question, could you perhaps choose another name? I got here first,and seniority does have its priviledges you know. :-) I certainly wouldn't want the others in the group to think that I don't know what Challenger 602 Is. :-) Bob Moore (The real one :-)) |

. 121... Bob...next time you log-on with a question, could you perhaps choose another name? If that's his name, it's his name. I got here first,and seniority does have its priviledges you know. :-) Not around here it doesn't. If you want distinction, it's up to you to create it. Get yourself a more unique name, if you don't want to be mistaken for someone else with a name as equally common as yours. I certainly wouldn't want the others in the group to think that I don't know what Challenger 602 Is. :-) What do you care? Even if you didn't know what a Challenger 602 is, would that make you a lesser person? I don't think so, and I think anyone who DOES think so is an idiot. You should think they're an idiot too.
