Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N235QS is a 2018-built Bombardier Challenger 650 (CL-600-2B16), serial number 6125, delivered new by Bombardier Inc. Ownership is held by NETJETS SALES INC, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and the aircraft is operated in NetJets’ fractional fleet framework. Registered in the United States under US registration, this specific Challenger carries the typical NetJets fractional configuration and is appraised at $27,000,000. Routine registry entries and corporate ownership filings reflect its status as a managed, operator-flown asset within a large fractional ownership program.

This airframe is outfitted in a NetJets fractional executive cabin, reflecting the typical 9–12 passenger deluxe layout while retaining certification for a maximum of 22 seats in other configurations; the installed fit emphasizes executive transport mission profiles. The avionics fit is the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 advanced suite, supporting modern navigation, communications and flight management tasks for regional and transcontinental missions. Typical operations for this aircraft include business and charter-like missions within a 4,000 nm range envelope, leveraging a long cruise of 459 kts and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft for efficient point-to-point travel. Maintenance and operations conform to NetJets’ centralized program standards, with managed maintenance tracking and scheduling under corporate ownership.

The Challenger 650 occupies the super-midsize cabin niche, offering transcontinental capability and a pressurized, comfortable cabin for executive transport compared with light and midsize business jets. Competing types include Gulfstream G280, Dassault Falcon 2000 variants and Embraer Lineage-class offerings, with the Challenger prized for cabin volume and runway performance. Demand for fractional-configured examples like N235QS is driven by operators seeking predictable availability and managed maintenance, and resale values reflect solid market interest for late-model, corporate-owned Challenger 650s with full Pro Line 21 avionics and documented service history.
