Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered N264QS, is a 2024-built Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 650 bearing serial number 6205. The aircraft is owned by NETJETS SALES INC, a corporate owner based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and is U.S.-registered. As a recent production example, it presents a contemporary avionics and interior fit, and the listed market valuation for this specific airframe is $34,000,000. Registry and ownership are straightforward with corporate operation documented under U.S. registration and no additional historic operators published.

The cabin for this Challenger 650 follows the typical executive configuration, accommodating a nine–twelve passenger executive layout while retaining FAA-certified seating for 22; it is commonly fitted with two cabin zones, a full galley and an enclosed lavatory. Avionics are Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 with four large displays, dual FMS, SVS and MultiScan weather radar, supporting both demanding charter operations and corporate shuttle missions. Typical mission profiles for this airframe are medium- to long-range business or fractional operator flights leveraging a 4,000 nm range and a cruise of 459 kts from its Oklahoma City corporate base. Maintenance considerations reflect the twin General Electric CF34-3B engines and the Challenger 650 systems set, with operator-managed upkeep consistent with corporate fleet standards.

The Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 650 occupies the mid-size large-cabin business jet niche, offering transcontinental range and a high, comfortable cabin relative to light and midsize competitors. Competing models in this performance bracket typically include upgraded Challenger variants and rival large-cabin platforms from other manufacturers; the Challenger 650’s strengths are its cabin volume and avionics suite. Buyer and charter demand is driven by fractional and corporate operators seeking 4,000 nm capability and a 41,000 ft ceiling for fuel-efficient cruise at 459 kts. Resale and maintenance considerations hinge on airframe age, engine hours on the CF34-3B units and the Pro Line 21 avionics pedigree, factors reflected in the $34,000,000 valuation for this new 2024 serial 6205 airframe.
