Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N234QS is a 2017-built Bombardier Challenger 650, serial number 6097, manufactured by Bombardier Inc. The aircraft is recorded as owned by NETJETS SALES INC, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and is registered in the US. The registry lists a fractional/co-owned seating configuration and the aircraft carries an estimated market value of $20,000,000; no other prior ownership transfers or registry events are published for this airframe in the provided data.

The registration lists the cabin as 22 seats reflecting a fractional/co-owned configuration, while typical executive layouts for the model accommodate 9–12 seats; this indicates the airframe may be configured for high-density or corporate fractional missions. Avionics are installed as Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 Advanced, supporting modern flight-deck functionality and common fleet interoperability. Operated under ownership of NETJETS SALES INC, the aircraft is suited to long-range, transcontinental or transoceanic shuttle missions consistent with a 4,000 nm capability and a cruise speed near 424 kts. Maintenance and cabin reconfiguration considerations for this specific airframe would align with fractional-operator standards and Bombardier service schedules, given the Challenger 650 type and its GE CF34-3B engines.

The Bombardier Challenger 650 sits in the super-midsize business jet category, offering a balance of transcontinental range, cabin size and field performance. With its 4,000 nm range and 41,000 ft ceiling, it competes with models in the same market niche and attracts buyers seeking comfortable long-range capability without stepping into the large-cabin segment. Typical competing types include other super-midsize and large-cabin business jets; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe will reflect its age (2017 build), fractional ownership configuration, and the established support network for the CF34 family and Bombardier service.
