N447SW

This airframe, registered as N447SW, is a Bombardier CRJ-200LR (CL-600-2B19) built by Bombardier Inc. in 2002 with manufacturer serial number 7677. It is owned and operated by SkyWest Charter / SkyWest Airlines Inc., a corporate operator based in St. George, UT, US, and carries a United States registration. The airframe’s operational history centers on regional passenger transport under the SkyWest umbrella, with routine registry status as a U.S.-registered regional jet. Condition and valuation specifics are not published here, but the aircraft’s age and configuration reflect typical mid-life status for early-2000s CRJ-200LR examples.

The cabin of N447SW is configured in a 50-seat single-class regional layout consistent with standard economy seating for regional operations, optimized for short- to medium-haul scheduled or charter services. Avionics fit follows the typical CRJ-200 equip with the Collins Pro Line / ProLine series, supporting regional airline operational requirements and common classroom-type maintenance practices. Typical missions for this airframe include high-frequency, short-haul routes where quick turnarounds and high seat-density are priorities; the aircraft is based operationally out of St. George, UT under SkyWest’s corporate operator structure. Maintenance considerations align with second-decade CRJ-200 operations, emphasizing CF34 engine programs and airframe fatigue monitoring customary to this model year.

The CRJ-200 family occupies the regional jet niche for sub-50‑seat high-frequency markets, offering a balance of reasonable cruise speed (424 kts) and regional range (1,700 nm) for point-to-point routes. Competitors historically include similarly sized regional jets and turboprops where operating economics and stage lengths dictate fleet mix decisions. For buyers and charter operators, airframes like N447SW present strong utility in established regional networks but carry maintenance and lifecycle considerations typical of early-2000s production examples, including adherence to CF34 engine maintenance cycles and avionics upgrade paths for continued regulatory and operational compatibility.
