ROLE
A lot of power can be found in the Challenger 604. Two General Electric
CF34-3B engines propel the jet, each rated at 8,729 lbs of thrust. This
means that with eight passengers, the 604 can fly 3,850 miles, and at .74
Mach. However, 4,000+ nautical mile legs are possible at 424 ktas (a personal
milestone for Canadair) due to new fuel distribution and greater capacity
(2,460 gallons). |
