Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N125JJ is a 1999-built Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604, manufacturer serial 5412, registered in the US. The airframe is owned by the corporation NEVES LLC, based in Elizabethtown, KY, US, and is recorded in US civil registers under that ownership. Acquired by NEVES LLC is the primary recent ownership action on record for this specific registration, with no additional operator changes published in the supplied data. The airframe carries an estimated market value of $6,000,000, reflecting its late-1990s build but well-regarded platform condition and systems common to Challenger 604s of comparable vintage.

The cabin of this airframe follows a typical 10–12 passenger executive layout modified to a maximum of 22 seats in available configurations: forward four-place club, mid-cabin conference group, and aft divan, with a forward galley and an aft lavatory as standard fittings. Onboard avionics are fitted with Collins Pro Line 4, a configuration commonly subjected to aftermarket upgrades to Pro Line 21 or Fusion-class suites by owners seeking modernized navigation, communications and flight management capabilities. Typical missions for this Challenger 604 include transcontinental and transoceanic business operations within its 4,000 nm range and cruise speeds near 459 kts, operated commercially or privately from its owner’s base in Elizabethtown, KY. Maintenance considerations align with the CF34-3B engine commonality and avionics upgrade paths practiced by owners to preserve airworthiness and residual value.

The Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604 occupies the long-range midsize cabin jet niche, offering extended-range capabilities around 4,000 nm and cabin flexibility for executive layouts up to 22 seats. Competing models in the same mission profile include late-model variants of midsize-to-large corporate jets, with buyer and charter demand typically favoring airframes with recent avionics and interior refurbishments. Maintenance and resale considerations for this 1999 serial 5412 center on engine support for the GE CF34-3B pair and the economic benefit of avionics upgrades from Collins Pro Line 4 to more modern suites to sustain marketability at its current valuation of $6,000,000.
