N520RP

This entry concerns the airframe registered as N520RP, a Bombardier Challenger 300 (BD-100-1A10) built in 2004 with manufacturer serial number 20032. The aircraft is owned by OLCO AVIATION LLC, a Dallas, Texas–based corporation, and is operated under a US registration. The Challenger 300 airframe shows market valuation and condition indicators reflected in sale listings, with a noted refurbishment to the cabin in 2022. Current estimated market value for this individual airframe is $7,625,000.

The single-airframe profile lists a nine-passenger double-club cabin layout with a belted lavatory seat noted in the 2022 refurbishment referenced in sale materials, though seating configuration for revenue operations is documented as 8 seats. Avionics fit is a Collins Pro Line 21 suite, including dual FMC/GPS, TCAS II and dual Collins comm/nav units, supporting modern flight management, navigation and traffic awareness tasks for business and charter missions. Typical mission profiles for this Challenger 300 would leverage the aircraft’s transcontinental range of 3,100 nm and high-speed cruise of 459 kts to serve owner/operator or charter trips from its Dallas base, while operations to high-altitude airports are enabled by a 45,000 ft service ceiling. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include standard HTF7000-series engine support and avionics upkeep aligned with the Collins Pro Line 21 architecture; the 2022 cabin refurbishment may affect interior maintenance cycles and resale presentation.

The Bombardier Challenger 300 (BD-100-1A10) occupies the light large-cabin super-midsize niche, offering long-range cruise performance and transcontinental capability relative to peers. Competitors in its class typically include other super-midsize business jets; buyer and charter demand gravitates to airframes with modern avionics and refreshed cabins, attributes present in this example. Resale considerations for this airframe will reflect its 2004 vintage and serial-specific maintenance history, the HTF7000 family engine type and the recent cabin refurbishment when comparing market prices and operational cost expectations.
