Challenger 604 in A380 Turbulence Incident Sold for Parts
The aircraft, stricken for high G stress after crossing into wake turbulence, was bought by a German operator to support its own fleet of Challengers 604s.
The stricken Challenger 604, which suffered G over-stress after running afoul of an A380's wake at the beginning of the year, made its final flight back to Germany in the belly of an Antonov 124. It spent the entire year on the ground at Muscat International Airport, where it made an emergency landing after the incident.
