Model & Market Context

This airframe, tail number N255QS, is a Bombardier Challenger 650 (CL-600-2B16) built in 2023 with serial number 6188. The airframe is owned by NETJETS SALES INC, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and is registered in the US. The aircraft carries a market valuation of $32,400,000, and its relatively recent manufacture year and corporate ownership suggest it is maintained to a fleet standard consistent with fractional or corporate operation. Recorded on the U.S. registry and held by a NetJets corporate entity, it reflects common fleet ownership and resale pathways within the fractional-ownership market.

The cabin of this Challenger 650 is fitted in a typical 9–12-place executive layout with a forward galley and aft lavatory, though fleet or corporate fit may vary; this specific airframe is described with a 22-place seating certification which accommodates multiple interior configurations for fractional or charter missions. Avionics are specified as the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 (Pro Line 21 Advanced) suite, supporting modern flight-deck automation and airline-style operational capability. Typical missions for this airframe profile include transcontinental and extended-range business travel up to 4,000 nm and high-speed cruise operations near 459 kts, flown from its corporate base in Oklahoma City, OK, US. Maintenance considerations follow fleet-standard practices for CF34-series powerplants and Pro Line 21 avionics support networks.

The Bombardier Challenger 650 (CL-600-2B16) occupies a performance niche in the large-cabin, long-range business jet segment, offering transcontinental range, a high service ceiling of 41,000 ft, and a combination of speed and cabin volume appealing to fractional and corporate buyers. Competing models include other large-cabin types in the same mission band; demand is typically driven by fractional operators and corporate flight departments seeking a balance of range, cabin comfort, and operating economics. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2023 airframe emphasize CF34 engine support and avionics lifecycle for the Pro Line 21 suite, factors reflected in its $32,400,000 valuation.
