N488VC

The airframe bearing tail number N488VC is a 2022-build Bombardier BD-100-1A10 Challenger 350, serial 20932, owned by the New York–based corporate entity OAKLR LLC. The jet was delivered and entered the United States civil registry in 2022 and has remained under corporate ownership since delivery. The aircraft is registered in the US and is valued at approximately $18,000,000, reflecting a modern-condition mid-size business jet with low airframe hours typical of a recent serial. No other ownership transfers or registrations are published beyond the initial corporate registration.

The installed cabin for this Challenger 350 is an executive 8-place double-club layout with a forward galley and an optional belted lavatory, configured to support corporate and executive transportation missions. Typical operations for this airframe include transcontinental and North American regional point-to-point flights within its 3,200 nm range and high-cruise profile, operating from the owner’s New York, NY base. Avionics are fitted with the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 suite as typical for the series and subject to operator optioning, supporting advanced flight management and avionics interoperability. Maintenance considerations follow manufacturer schedules for the BD-100/Challenger 350 family and Honeywell HTF7350 engine requirements, with recorded specification details indicating standard operator support needs for a 2022-build aircraft.

The Bombardier BD-100-1A10 Challenger 350 occupies the mid-size business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin comfort and transcontinental capability up to 3,200 nm and cruise speeds near 459 kts. Competing models in the sector include later-model Gulfstream, Dassault Falcon 2000/2000S derivatives, and Embraer Legacy/Lineage variants depending on cabin and range priorities. Buyer and charter demand for late-production Challenger 350 airframes typically emphasizes proven reliability, comfortable club-class cabins, and established support networks; resale and maintenance considerations center on airframe hours, engine cycles on the HTF7350s, and any operator-specific avionics or interior options.
