N218JJ

This entry covers airframe N218JJ, a 2010-built Bombardier-incorporated long-range business jet, serial number 9403, currently owned by JFW LEASING II LLC of Santa Rosa, California. The aircraft carries US registration and has remained in leasing ownership rather than documented corporate operation in the supplied data. No additional operator entries or notable registry events are published beyond its recorded ownership and valuation; the airframe is assigned an estimated market value of $16,000,000. Condition highlights drawn from the record focus on its factory configuration and standard avionics baseline rather than specific damage or maintenance incidents.

This airframe, a Bombardier BD-700-1A10 Global Express XRS, is certified to accommodate 23 seats but is typically fitted in an executive layout seating 10–15 passengers, with a forward galley, forward crew rest and an aft stateroom as the common interior arrangement for long-range missions. The installed avionics are noted as a Rockwell Collins / Pro Line-style integrated flight deck, with operator-dependent upgrades possible, supporting modern flight management and long-range operational profiles. Typical missions for this platform include transcontinental and intercontinental business or executive transport consistent with its 6,000 nm range and high-altitude cruise capability to FL510; as a leased asset, day-to-day operations would depend on lessee configuration and maintenance cycles. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe would follow type-standard schedules for the BR700 engine family and Global Express airframe programs; no bespoke maintenance history is provided in the supplied data.

The BD-700-1A10 Global Express XRS occupies the high-end, long-range business jet niche, competing with other ultra-long-range types that prioritize transoceanic range and high cruise altitude. Demand in the buyer and charter markets typically targets corporations, fractional operators, and leasing firms requiring 6,000 nm capability and cabin comfort for extended missions. Resale and maintenance considerations hinge on engine BR700 support, avionics upgrade status, and cabin refurbishments; the listed market value of $16,000,000 reflects these factors within the supplied dataset.
