N453AW

This entry covers airframe N453AW, a Bombardier CRJ-200ER (CL-600-2B19) built by Bombardier Inc. in 2003 with manufacturer serial 7838. The airframe is recorded as owned by AIR WISCONSIN AIRLINES LLC, a limited liability company based in Appleton, WI, US, and operates on a US registration. The current ownership is registered to AIR WISCONSIN AIRLINES LLC in Appleton, Wisconsin, reflecting its role within a regional operator fleet rather than independent lease activity. No separate publicized transactions or major registry actions for this specific airframe are reported beyond its ongoing operation under the named LLC.

This airframe is configured for a single-class regional layout, with a reported/configurable seating density ranging from 50–55 economy seats and shown here with 55 seats fitted. Avionics aboard follow the Collins Pro Line family, with the CRJ-200 series typically equipped with a Pro Line 4 fit, providing integrated flight management, navigation and communications suite consistent with regional turbofan operations. Operated by AIR WISCONSIN AIRLINES LLC, the aircraft is suited to short-to-medium stage-length missions typical of regional feeder routes, performing frequent daily sectors within constrained turnaround schedules. Maintenance considerations align with older-generation regional jets: CF34-3B1 engine shop visit planning, airframe cyclical inspections for higher-utilization regional work, and avionics support for the Pro Line architecture.

The Bombardier CRJ-200ER (CL-600-2B19) occupies the regional jet niche for 50–55 seat markets, offering relatively high cruise speed and an 1,345 nm mission capability that fits multi-leg regional networks. Competing models historically include later regional jets and turbofan variants offering improved fuel burn or larger cabins; demand tends toward operators seeking cost-effective short-haul capacity or replacement by larger regional types. For resale and maintenance, considerations include CF34-3B1 lifecycle and parts support, avionics upgrade paths from legacy Pro Line installations, and market appetite for single-class 50–55 seat configurations in North American regional operations.
