Specification
Range is 3,125 nautical miles against a 950-mile route, nonstop with very deep reserves. Cruise is Mach 0.83 — among the fastest midsize jets — and the ceiling is 45,000 feet. Two Honeywell HTF7500E engines and fly-by-wire controls give a smooth, quiet flight.
Cabin
The cabin runs 26 feet 10 inches with a flat floor, a 6-foot height and a 6-foot-10 width, seating eight to nine. The 155-cubic-foot hold is among the largest in the class. The length and width give genuine separate zones — a spacious midsize cabin north.
