C-FHNS Aircraft Overview
C-FHNS is a Iai Ltd IAI Astra registered in Canada with serial number 156. This midsize jet serves the core of the business aviation market, balancing cabin space, range, and operating cost in a way that makes it the most common category for corporate flight departments. The aircraft is associated with Jetport Inc., registered through the TCCA.
Performance Profile
At 470 knots, the IAI Astra cruises efficiently across routes up to 2950 nautical miles. This covers most domestic city pairs nonstop and reaches select international destinations from southern U.S. airports. Power comes from 2x Honeywell TFE731-40R. The aircraft operates at altitudes up to 45,000 feet.
Mission Profile
Midsize jets handle the bulk of corporate aviation missions: day trips, multi-city tours, and regional travel where airlines cannot match the schedule. The IAI Astra seats up to 9 passengers with a cabin that allows standing and provides enough volume for presentations, meals, or rest on flights under four hours.

Insider Note
Midsize jets offer the best balance of cost and capability for most private aviation missions. A common mistake is chartering a heavy jet for a route a midsize aircraft handles easily. The difference in hourly rate between the two categories can exceed $3,000 per flight hour.
