N249LR

The airframe bearing tail number N249LR is a Bombardier-built regional jet, a Bombardier CRJ-900LR (CL-600-2D24), completed in 2011 with manufacturer serial number 15275. The aircraft is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and has been maintained on the US civil registry under registration US. Operated and retained in service by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC from its St George base, the airframe represents a production-line example of the long-range CRJ-900 variant with documented factory configuration dating to 2011. Notable registry actions are limited to its ongoing US registration and corporate ownership record; no additional transfers or deregistrations are recorded in the supplied data.

Cabin layout and seating configuration for this specific airframe are not published. Avionics fit and any bespoke interior or retrofit history for N249LR are not published in the supplied data; operationally, the aircraft’s long-range CRJ-900LR designation and a cruise speed of 447 kts indicate employment on regional and thin transcontinental sectors where point-to-point frequency and higher stage lengths are required. Based at St George, UT under SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, the aircraft's mission profile is consistent with fixed-wing multi-engine regional operations, including high-utilization short- to medium-haul rotations and day-to-day service patterns typical of regional carriers. Maintenance considerations specific to this airframe would reflect standard CRJ-900LR fleet practices; no unique maintenance records or amenities were provided.

The Bombardier CRJ-900LR (CL-600-2D24) occupies the regional jet performance niche offering extended range relative to base CRJ-900 variants, permitting sectors up to 1,828 nm while retaining regional economics. Competing models in similar roles include stretched regional jets and smaller narrowbodies from other manufacturers; fleet buyers and charter operators prioritize commonality with CF34-powered fleets and regional carrier maintenance programs. For resale and lifecycle considerations, a 2011-build airframe like 15275 combines mature type support with remaining useful life dependent on cycles and calendar maintenance; retention within a corporate regional operator such as SKYWEST AIRLINES INC tends to preserve continuous maintenance traceability and registry continuity.
