Pro feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.
Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

History
30 anos do mesmo type certificate
O CL-600-2B16 type certificate vai do 604 (1995) ao 650 (2025+), quase 30 anos da mesma plataforma certificada. Permite que pilotos type-rated em qualquer variante operem todos com diferenças mínimas em treinamento, e simuladores de 605 cobrem 90% do treinamento 650.
1995Transport Canada
Lançamento em 2014, terceira geração da plataforma
Anunciado em maio de 2014 com EIS em 2015. Terceira evolução do CL-600-2B16 (após 604 e 605), mantém certificação amadrinhadora original mas adiciona motores upgraded e aviônica Pro Line 21 Advanced. Em produção contínua até 2025+, com mais de 250 unidades entregues.

Benefits
Motor CF34-3B Mod 2, 1.500 lbf adicionais
Os GE CF34-3B Mod 2 entregam 9.220 lbf de empuxo cada (vs 8.729 lbf do 604/605), melhorando significativamente performance em hot-and-high airports, campos de 5.640 ft balanced field vs 5.840 ft do 605. Crítico para operações em locais como Aspen, Eagle, e altiplanos sul-americanos.
Cabine widebody 2,49 m mantida com tech 2020s
Mantém a largura widebody 2,49m (a maior do segmento large) mas com touchscreens HD individuais, sistema de cabine controlado por iPad/iPhone, iluminação LED full-spectrum e Ka-band Viasat para Wi-Fi de alta velocidade, combinação rara de cabine clássica com tech de ponta.
Limitations
Range 4.000 nm fica atrás de Falcon 6X e Global 5500
Os 4.000 nm do 650 ficam abaixo dos 4.750 nm do Praetor 600, 5.500 nm do Falcon 6X e 5.900 nm do Global 5500. Para missões NYC-Geneva sem escala em vento de cabeça forte, o 650 pode precisar de fuel stop. Trade-off: preço USD 32M vs USD 47-58M dos competidores.
Curiosities
MSRP USD 32,5M com market price USD 18-28M
Em 2024-2025, novos saem por USD 32,5M MSRP, mas o mercado pre-owned (2015-2020 vintages) negocia entre USD 18M (high-time, sem upgrades) e USD 28M (low-time, fully optioned). Backlog Bombardier Montreal de 12-14 meses para entrega nova em 2025. Operadores corporativos US e clientes do Oriente Médio são as maiores frotas.
