About the Challenger 300 and Challenger 600 series advisory committees  

Meetings are held twice a year (spring/fall) and the purpose is to:      

1. Ensure that Bombardier focuses on the fleet’s top issues;  

2. Provide guidance on strategic fleet questions and issues;  

3. Ensure Bombardier’s corrective action is aligned with customer needs and product knowledge.  

We strongly encourage participation in the advisory committee. It is the voice of the fleet and represents an excellent opportunity to provide your feedback to Bombardier.  

The committee, along with your Customer Service Account Manager and Field Service Representative, welcome your feedback and share in the common goal of optimizing your aircraft experience and your relationship with us.
