G200

[Hawk Driver]

What is the initial cruising altitude at higher weights?

FL 350-370

The airplane has a lot of T/R issues at the moment. Gulfstream has been very receptive to all that we ask of them with this airplane, we are afterall, the biggest buyer of this plane. So, they are anxious to resolve our T/R problems.

That's odd. We have no issues on the LR60. I can't imagine the TR's and their systems are much different on the 200.

GVFlyer made this post in the Corporate section. The G200 specifications are in the right column.

Cl300
The CL300 is the first point design aircraft for the fractional market.

For comparison I'll include data for the Gulfstream G200 which is at a similar price point.

All the T/R's at Netjets are made by the same company, I won't mention them for fear of reprisal. We had some issues in the Ultra with them as well and now we are having similar issues in the G200. The company that makes them are very interested in getting the issues resolved, seems there is a lot riding on them fixing the problem.

Payload for alot of 300s is more like 3200 lbs. Roughly 23.8k BOW. Most of the other stuff looks about right.

The T/O and landing performance helps on high and hot days.

Thanks, I use typical completion weights for performance unless stated otherwise. For instance, spec. operating weight for the Gulfstream G550 is 48,300 lbs (which is slightly more than the one I fly weighs) but some customers go for all the techno-luxo options while others want showers and bedrooms so the typical operating weight is 48,700 lbs (with a crew of four).

The typical operating weight for a Challenger 300 is 24,200 lbs which means some will weigh more, some will weigh less.

It's a good looking aircraft at a nice price point, enjoy flying it.
