Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N101KF, is a 2003-built Bombardier business jet of type Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604, constructor serial number 5564. The aircraft is United States–registered and is recorded as owned by TRAVERS 6 LLC, an LLC based in Chesterfield, MO, US; available records reflect that status as the principal ownership entry on file. The airframe carries a contemporary avionics fit and an executive interior, and market indications place the airframe value at $5,300,000, reflecting its age, equipment standardization and typical maintenance lifecycle for the type.

The cabin of N101KF is fitted in a typical executive layout rated for seating 8–12 in standard executive configuration but is certified for installations up to 19–22 seats depending on the applicable certificate and interior installation; reported equipment includes a forward galley, mid/forward club seating and an aft lavatory. The installed avionics suite is the common factory/retrofit Collins Pro Line 4 package, supporting typical Challenger 604 operations and regional-to-transcontinental missions from a U.S. operator base. Operational profiles for this specific airframe would commonly include owner-operated corporate missions, on-demand charter or long-range point-to-point travel within the aircraft’s 3,824 nm capability; maintenance considerations follow Bombardier and CF34 operator programs given the airframe’s early-2000s manufacture date.

The Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604 occupies the large-cabin, long-range corporate jet niche with payload and comfort advantages relative to light and midsize jets. Competitors include later-model large-cabin types and heavy midsize conversions with similar range and speed; demand historically centers on corporate, charter and fractional operators seeking transcontinental capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2003 Challenger 604 such as N101KF emphasize airframe and engine shop visit histories, avionics standardization (here, Collins Pro Line 4) and the certification/seat configuration that affect charter flexibility and valuation.
