Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered N518JA, is a 2007-built Bombardier Challenger 605 (CL-600-2B16) with manufacturer serial number 5719. The airframe is owned by BFJA LLC, a corporate owner based in Glenbrook, NV, United States, and carries United States registration. The Challenger 605 represented by this record is a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet commonly operated in executive transport roles; its assessed market value in the provided data is $10,000,000. There are no additional published records here of earlier owners or notable registry actions beyond the current corporate ownership and valuation.
This specific Challenger 605 carries a typical two-zone executive cabin layout, with the production configuration commonly fitted for 9–12 passenger executive interiors while retaining a certified seating stamp up to 22. The avionics fit for the type is the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 family, and production 605 installations typically use Pro Line 21 variants, supporting advanced flight management, weather radar and integrated navigation suited to long-range executive missions. With a cruise speed of 471 kts and a maximum certified range of 4,045 nm, typical missions for this airframe include transcontinental and near-international flights under corporate or charter use, operating from owner/operator base in Glenbrook, NV or similar hubs. Maintenance considerations follow Challenger 600-series practices, with systems and engine shop visits driven by CF34-3B maintenance cycles and Pro Line avionics support requirements.
The Bombardier Challenger 605 occupies the large-cabin, long-range light-heavy business jet niche within Bombardier’s Challenger family, offering transcontinental capability and a two-zone cabin in a purpose-built platform. Competing models in the segment include late-model large-cabin business jets from Gulfstream and Dassault, with buyer and charter demand driven by cabin size, range and operating economics. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its 2007 build year, CF34 engine support, and avionics generation; these factors inform the provided valuation of $10,000,000 and typical aftermarket demand for well-maintained 605-series aircraft.
