Fictional livery for the Challenger 650 by Hot Start. Based on a Challenger 350 livery operated by European Flight Services registered SE-RNR.

Livery for N89 (very similar to N88, N90, etc), flown by the FAA on Flight Check missions to ensure procedures, airways, and more can be flown and relied on safely. Many thanks to a real Flight Check captain for providing direct color references. To my eye the registration looks best in Arial Bold. For copyright reasons, this font file is not included in the download - if you're running Windows, you should be able to grab it out of your C:\Windows\Fonts folder and copy it in to the livery folder. If not, there are several open alternatives to Arial that will probably look fine.

This is a blue and grey paint scheme that was based off N703MD, which is a Falcon 7x. I know it's a Falcon and not a Challenger but I thought the paint looked cool and wanted to put it on the Challenger. Enjoy!

This livery is of the latest addition to the fleet of 412 Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Force. The Challenger 650 is designated as the CC-144D in the RCAF inventory. The example that is the subject of the livery, 144620, was delivered to the squadron on 30 June 2020. 412 Transport Squadron is based in the Ottawa, Ontario in Canada’s National Capital Region. The squadron maintains a three-hour notice-to-move posture 365 days a year in support of Government of Canada and Canadian Armed Forces global transport requirements. Though primarily known for VIP transport, the CC-144 Challenger is also capable of command-and-liaison and emergency medical evacuation roles in support of CAF operations. The squadron operates two different Bombardier CC-144 Challengers: the CC-144C (civilian model 604) and the CC-144D (civilian model 650). The squadron is part of 8 Wing Trenton and is based out of the Pilot Officer John Gillespie Magee, Jr. Annex at Ottawa's MacDonald-Cartier International Airport (CYOW). The Annex is named for a 412 Squadron Spitfire pilot who wrote the highly popular poem “High Flight”. Check out the customization of the FBO reidentified as the PO J.G. Magee, Jr. Annex.

This is the official paintkit for the Hot Start Challenger 650. This paintkit assumes you have previous knowledge of painting in PSD (Photoshop) files and/or afphoto (Affinity Photo) files. DISCLAIMER: Upon opening the zip file containing the paintkit, you have agreed to the terms that follow. You may do ALMOST whatever you wish with these files. Create, share, modify, post on forums, all without restriction. You may NOT charge money for any textures created with these files. You may NOT sell this paintkit. (Unfortunately, it has to be stated.) If you choose to alter any files other than the empty layer between the Ambient Occlusion and Albedo layers, you do so at your own risk, and you do so, assuming you have made backups of the original textures. The only layer designed for changes or additions is the layer between the AO and Albedo layers. You may add as many empty layers as you wish, but make sure they are located between the AO and Albedo layers to achieve correct results. The wireframe layers that are included are a guide to the areas you can paint in. Anything outside of the wireframe is NOT to be painted on.

N60NB is a fictional Challenger 650 based on N63NB, a Gulfstream G600 (photo included below, not mine). Please do not modify and reupload/redistribute without contacting me.

This is a 3D model of the Mooney Ovation or Acclaim for use when flying in online networks like VATSIM. This will be visible for multiplayer traffic flying type code M20P or M20T. Downloading and Installation Instructions: Download and then extract the M20P folder into your pilot client CSL folder (X-Plane 11/Resources/plugins/xPilot/Resources/CSL/Bluebell/ for default installs) to see this model. This model includes animated lights (Nav, Beacon, Landing, Taxi), retractable gear, rotating prop, and flaps. There are animated speedbrakes however there appears to be a dataref issue (these don't appear to animate in the sim). I hope with the XP12 Mooney release we can have that fixed! Please do not resell this work.
