N311FC

The airframe bearing tail N311FC is a 2010-built Bombardier BD-100-1A10 Challenger 300 with serial number 20298. Owned by TUBING RENTALS LLC, an LLC based in Robstown, TX, US, this airframe is registered in the US and is operated from that owner’s home base in Texas. The Challenger 300 configuration and Pro Line 21 Advanced avionics retrofit, combined with its 2010 build year, position the airframe as a late-model example with an estimated market value of $13,000,000. No additional registry actions beyond the current ownership and US registration are recorded in the provided data.

The cabin of this Challenger 300 is laid out for nine passengers with a forward 4-place club and an aft 4-place club, plus a belted aft lavatory and a forward galley; dual bulkhead-mounted 20" monitors are fitted for passenger entertainment or meeting purposes. Avionics are a Collins Pro Line 21 Advanced suite (Pro Line 21 Advanced retrofit), supporting modern flight management, navigation and situational awareness upgrades relative to original factory fit. Typical mission profiles for this airframe align with the Challenger 300’s short-to-medium-haul business transport role — transcontinental U.S. hops or regional international trips within its 3,100 nm radius at cruise speeds near 459 kts and operating up to 45,000 ft. Maintenance considerations center on HTF7000 engine support and continued avionics software/hardware updates consistent with a retrofit Pro Line 21 Advanced installation.

The Bombardier BD-100-1A10 Challenger 300 family occupies the light large-cabin business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin comfort, transcontinental range and high cruise speed. Competing models typically include the Gulfstream G280 and newer midsize entrants; the Challenger 300’s strengths are its roomy cabin and proven HTF7000 engines, but resale and maintenance factors reflect engine shop visit cycles and avionics modernization status. For a 2010 airframe like N311FC, the Pro Line 21 Advanced retrofit and the nine-passenger executive interior help sustain charter and owner-operator demand while the $13,000,000 valuation aligns with late-model examples that have been upgraded and well maintained.
