Canadair CX-144A Challenger - Winnipeg MB - Static Aircraft Displays on Waymarking.com

Company designation:CL 600-1A11
Company number:1002
First Flight - 17 March 1979

This was the second Challenger prototype. It was used exclusively for testing purposes even after delivery to Aerospace Engineering and Test Establishment at CFB Cold Lake, Alberta on 29 February 1988.
It was designated CX-144A after delivery, due to difference in configuration from the standard CC-144A. That non-standard configuration, reportedly made it unpopular with AETE.

Struck off and preserved: 8 April 1993
