N228SK

This airframe, registered as N228SK, is a 2014-built Bombardier BD-700-1A10 Global 6000 with manufacturer serial number 9643. The aircraft is recorded in U.S. registry and is owned by SKECHERS U S A INC, a corporation based in Manhattan Beach, CA; this corporate ownership is the principal documented change in the airframe’s history. As a factory-built Global 6000 completed in 2014, the airframe reflects mid‑cycle systems and interior standards typical of that vintage and has the U.S. registration and corporate operator footprint associated with West Coast business aviation operations. Maintenance status and current market valuation are not published in the supplied data.

The airframe carries a large-cabin executive layout; manufacturer and market listings for this model typically show executive seating up to approximately 19, while FAA-recorded maximum seating on this registration is 23, indicating an operator-specific interior configuration that may vary by mission. Avionics fit for this airframe is listed as Rockwell Collins’ Pro Line Fusion or similar Pro Line–style suites common on Global 6000s, supporting advanced flight management, integrated displays and modern communications and surveillance capabilities. Operated from a corporate base in Manhattan Beach, CA, the aircraft’s 6,000 nm range and high cruise speed make it suited for transcontinental and transpacific executive transport, long‑range charter missions, or repositioning flights; these mission profiles place operational emphasis on long‑interval checks, engine monitoring for the BR710 series, and cabin systems maintenance consistent with a large‑cabin business jet.

The Bombardier BD-700-1A10 Global 6000 occupies the long-range, high‑speed large‑cabin business jet niche, offering intercontinental capability and a 51,000 ft service ceiling that supports optimized long‑route operations. Competing models include late‑generation Gulfstream G450/G550 family and Dassault Falcon 7X/8X types, with buyer demand tied to cabin size, range and fleet commonality. For this 2014 airframe, resale and maintenance considerations center on BR710 engine lifecycle management, updates to Pro Line avionics suites, and the condition and configuration of the corporate interior, all of which materially affect marketability to buyers or charter operators.
