9H-VCT

9H-VCT Aircraft Overview

9H-VCT is a BOMBARDIER Bombardier Challenger 300 registered in Malta with serial number on file. The Bombardier Challenger 300 occupies the super-midsize category, bridging the performance gap between traditional midsize jets and large-cabin heavy platforms. Ownership information is held by the Transport Malta CAD in Malta.

Bombardier Challenger 300 Market Position

The Challenger 300 entered the super-midsize market in 2004, offering 3,100 nautical miles of range and a flat-floor cabin with stand-up headroom. It was Bombardier's first clean-sheet business jet design in two decades. The type sold well against the Citation Sovereign and Hawker 4000.

Performance Profile

The Bombardier Challenger 300 cruises at 470 knots and achieves a maximum range of 3100 nautical miles. That envelope covers coast-to-coast U.S. routes and most Caribbean or Central American destinations nonstop from mainland airports. Power comes from 2x Honeywell HTF7000. A 45,000-foot service ceiling keeps the aircraft above congested airspace and most weather systems.

Mission Profile

Super-midsize jets fill a specific operational gap: passengers who need transcontinental range and a stand-up cabin without the acquisition and operating costs of a heavy jet. The Bombardier Challenger 300 seats up to 10 in a flat-floor cabin with enough room for a productive work environment or comfortable rest on legs exceeding four hours.

9H-VCT is registered in Malta under the Transport Malta CAD. Contact The Jet Finder to inquire about charter availability for this aircraft or similar Bombardier Challenger 300 platforms worldwide.

Insider Note

Super-midsize jets often operate from the same runway lengths as midsize aircraft but carry significantly more fuel and payload. For operators considering an upgrade from a midsize platform, the super-mid category delivers measurably more range without requiring access to longer runways.
