N41HF

This airframe, registered as N41HF, is a 2002-built Bombardier Challenger 604 (CL-600-2B16) with manufacturer's serial number 5553. The airframe was manufactured by Bombardier Inc. and is registered to and owned by FATH AVIATION LTD, a corporate owner based in Cincinnati, OH, US. The Challenger 604 in question is U.S.-registered (US) and carries a reported market valuation of $5,951,343, reflecting its age, configuration and standard market depreciation for early-2000s heavy light-cabin business jets. No alternate owners or transfers are recorded in the supplied data; operationally it is associated with Cincinnati as the operator/home base.

The cabin on this specific Challenger 604 follows the typical executive arrangement: a 10–12 place executive layout with a forward galley, mid/forward club seating and an aft lavatory, while the type is certificated for arrangements up to 22 seats. Avionics are commonly fitted with the Collins Pro Line 4 suite; many airframes receive the PrecisionPlus upgrade and that avionics path is noted as a common fit for the model. Typical mission profiles for this airframe class include medium‑to‑long range corporate and charter operations—leveraging its 4,000 nm ferry capability and cruise of 459 kts—and the Cincinnati base suggests regional to transcontinental usage. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect CF34-3B engine support and avionics upgrade paths that influence availability and operating economics.

The Bombardier Challenger 604 (CL-600-2B16) occupies a performance niche as a large-cabin, long-range business jet capable of intercontinental sectors for corporate and charter operators. Competing models in its era and class include other large-cabin types offering similar range and cabin comfort; buyer and charter demand typically favors examples with upgraded avionics like PrecisionPlus and a well-documented maintenance history. For resale and continued operation, factors such as remaining structural life, CF34-3B engine status, interior refurbishment and the presence of avionics upgrades directly affect marketability and the type’s residual value reflected in the reported $5,951,343 valuation.
