The cabin for this airframe is a typical eight-place executive double-club layout with a forward four-place double club and reported aft club/divan options, reflecting standard corporate interior fits for the Challenger 300 series. Avionics fit is the series-typical Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21, supporting modern flight-deck functionality used in business-jet operations. Mission profiles for N357KG would commonly include transcontinental U.S. point-to-point trips or coastal hops within the aircraft’s 3,100 nm range at cruise speeds near 459 kts, flown from its home base in Bluffton, SC. Maintenance and operational considerations align with mid-2000s BD-100 airframes, including typical engine program adherence for the AS907-1-1A powerplants and avionics lifecycle updates.
The Bombardier BD-100-1A10 Challenger 300 occupies the light-medium super-midsize business jet niche, offering long-range transcontinental capability and a comfortable eight-passenger executive cabin. Competing models in its segment include other late-model super-midsize jets that prioritize range near 3,000+ nm, similar cruise speeds, and service-friendly twin-engine configurations. Buyer and charter demand often centers on airframes with well-documented maintenance histories and avionics like the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21, which can influence resale and maintenance considerations for a 2003 serial 20012 airframe such as N357KG.
