N142QS

This entry covers the specific airframe N142QS, a Bombardier BD-700-1A10 Global 6000 manufactured by Bombardier Inc. and completed in 2012, serial number 9485. The airframe is owned by NETJETS SALES INC (a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US) and is registered in the US. Registry records and valuation notes list the type, serial and an estimated market value of $28,000,000, reflecting its configuration and age in the fractional/managed fleet sector.

The airframe is fitted with an executive long‑range cabin layout; while manufacturer typical configurations list 13–17 executive seats, the registry for N142QS lists 23 seats, indicating a higher-density or mixed seating/utility fit. The forward galley, forward and aft lavatories, in‑flight entertainment and SATCOM equip the cabin to support transcontinental and intercontinental missions within the aircraft’s 6,000 nm range. The flight deck is equipped with the Bombardier Vision multi‑screen suite with optional HUD/EVS/SVS and advanced FMS/CPDLC capability, supporting modern airspace and long‑range operational profiles. Operated from the owner’s base in Oklahoma City, OK, US, the aircraft typically performs business, fractional ownership and repositioning flights; maintenance considerations follow Global 6000 schedules and Rolls‑Royce BR710 engine support requirements.

The BD-700‑1A10 Global 6000 occupies the long‑range executive cabin niche, offering transoceanic capability with high cruise speed (504 kts) and a service ceiling of 51,000 ft. Competing models include large-cabin long‑range types where buyers and charter operators evaluate range, cabin size and operating economics; the Global 6000’s Rolls‑Royce BR710 engines and Bombardier Vision avionics package are selling points for operators requiring performance and avionics capability. For resale and fleet valuation, the 2012 build year and reported $28,000,000 value reflect market depreciation, configuration (notably the 23-seat registry listing) and continued demand in fractional/managed ownership segments.
