About the Bombardier Challenger 850
The Bombardier Challenger 850 is the regional-jet-derived large-cabin business jet — based on the CRJ200 airline platform, with the largest "Challenger" cabin and stand-up room for larger groups (corporate shuttle, VIP, sports teams). Twin GE CF34-3B engines (same family as the 600-series Challenger). Production was relatively short; the used market is thin. Distinct from the standard Challenger 604/605/650, the 850's CRJ heritage means CRJ-style maintenance and parts support, which is a meaningful operating consideration.

Buying a Used Bombardier Challenger 850
Buying a Bombardier Challenger 850 is about the engines, maintenance programs and avionics as much as the airframe. Engine and airframe hourly-maintenance programs transfer with the aircraft and materially change both price and risk.
What to check before buying
- Engine status & program — time to overhaul/MPI and whether the engines are enrolled on an hourly maintenance program (the biggest value driver on any jet).
- Airframe program & inspections — scheduled (Doc) inspections, airframe/parts programs and total cycles.
- Avionics & mandates — a modern glass flight deck plus required mandates (ADS-B, FANS) raise value and capability.
- Damage history & logbooks — complete, gap-free records and a clean accident history protect resale.
- Pre-buy inspection — a full pre-buy at a type-authorised service centre before money changes hands.
