Bombardier Delivers First Challenger 350 Business Jet To Belgium For Luxaviation Group
Prior to mid-March, Bombardier had never delivered one of its 10-passenger Bombardier Challenger 350 business jets to a customer in Belgium. That’s no longer the case now that Bombardier has delivered a Challenger 350 to Luxaviation Group, which will operate the aircraft for a Belgian customer. Notably, the Challenger 350 will become one of more than 600 Bombardier Business Aircraft planes operating in the region, which includes Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands.
Luxaviation Jets & Helicopters
Luxaviation, made up of Luxaviation Helicopters, Starspeed, and ExecuJet and other business aviation companies, offers aircraft management, charter, maintenance, and FBO (fixed-base operations) for private and commercial aircraft. The company is billed as one of the world’s largest private operators. Based in Luxembourg, Luxaviation operates a fleet of 260-plus jets and helicopters and has locations in Africa, Asia-Pacific, Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East.
Hervé Laitat, Luxaviation Belgium CEO, said Luxaviation’s facilities in Belgium are a “true reflection” of how the company has set the bar “very high” for international business aviation operations. “Our ExecuJet Brussels FBO was the first to be certified by the IS-BAH (International Standard of Business Air Handling) in the country, and we’ve just achieved IS-BAH Stage II certification, proving our team’s dedication to safety and service excellence,” he says.
The Challenger 350
Able to connect Brussels to Dubai nonstop, the Challenger 350 provides a 3,200-nautical mile (5,926-kilometer) range and the ability to quickly climb to a 43,000-foot (13,106-meter) initial cruising altitude. Bombardier says the jet is the only super-midsize aircraft that can fly full range at full fuel and full seat capacity, and is the best-selling business jet platform of the last decade.
