In this document

Family context (not variant-specific)

The registry lists the 601-3 family from Canadair, with variants CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R and CL-604. Highest values across the family: range up to 3400 nm, cruise up to 432 kt, MTOW up to 19500 kg, up to 19 passengers, ceiling up to 45000 ft. Treat these as upper bounds, not 601-3R figures.

What the manual revisions reveal

Cold-weather work: Rev 62 stressed an aerodynamically clean airplane, Rev 70 added an ice dispersal procedure, and Rev 79 added supplemental ground wing anti-icing. Rev 69 added a pitch-up caution for reverse thrust with reduced flaps and instructions on wet brakes. Rev 81 added an unreliable airspeed procedure.

Pre-purchase checks

Confirm the manual revision status and all supplements. Ask whether the Honeywell APU 36-150(CL) service bulletin (Rev 61) and Service Bulletin 601-0165 (Rev 74) are incorporated. Check whether the forward auxiliary fuel tank is deactivated (Rev 64 limits). Check windshield condition against Supplement 17.
