Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N168QS, is a 2022-build Bombardier BD-700-1A10 Global 6500 with serial number 60072. The aircraft is co-owned by DMS FLIGHT LLC (c/o NetJets Sales Inc) and is associated with Oklahoma City, OK as its operator/home base under a United States registration. FAA records list an operator-configured fractional layout with 23 seats, and the airframe is currently valued at $56,000,000, reflecting a late-model Global 6500 in service condition. No other registry actions are published in the supplied data.

The aircraft is fitted in an executive long‑range layout; FAA records specifically list a 23-seat, operator-configured fractional arrangement. Typical Global 6500 cabins are zoned with a forward galley, mid-cabin seating/club arrangements and aft lavatory/galley options, and this airframe follows that operator-specific fit pattern. The flight deck is equipped with the Bombardier Vision flight deck (Pro Line Fusion) with available Combined Vision System (CVS) and Heads-Up Display (HUD) options, supporting long continental and transoceanic missions. Operated from Oklahoma City by a NetJets-affiliated owner/operator structure, the airframe’s mission profile emphasizes long-range executive transport and fractional charter operations, with attendant maintenance cycles and scheduling consistent with high-utilization fractional fleets.

As a member of the Global 6500 family, this airframe occupies the long‑range, large‑cabin business jet niche, demonstrated by a 6,600 nm range, high cruise speed and a 51,000 ft ceiling. The twin Rolls‑Royce Pearl 15 engines and modern avionics package align the type for demanding point‑to‑point missions common to fractional and charter operators. Market considerations for this specific airframe include strong late‑model demand reflected in the $56,000,000 valuation and fractional‑operation maintenance profiles that prioritize consistent dispatch reliability and avionics modernization options.
