Can someone who actually flies a 605, please give us your real number on transatlantic crossings.

Thanks very much. The website posts .82 for 4000nm, I tend to think that's not "real". Maybe one or the other but not both, at least not with four pax and baggage.

Our 605 international BOW is 27.3 and change so we have close to a 1,000 pound payload at full fuel. Seems like the sweet spot is .77 for long legs unless you are way back to LRC. We can usually go right to 36-37,000 and step climb from there. Negatives: (handling, runway #s, cruise altitudes just OK) Pluses: (very reliable, range, good avianics (PL21), big cockpit, solid airplane, etc).
Good luck-
There are some really good deals on late model 604s. Probably pick up a low time well equipped one for 7-8 million nowdays.
