N522FX

This entry covers airframe N522FX, a Bombardier Challenger 300 (BD-100-1A10) assembled by Bombardier Inc. in 2005 with serial number 20064. The jet is owned by Flexjet LLC, a corporation based in Cleveland, OH, United States, and is registered in the United States; registration actions place it on the U.S. civil registry. The airframe's market valuation is listed at $8,900,000, reflecting its status as a mid-2000s super-midsize business jet with operator-maintained condition noted in registry summaries.

The airframe features a typical eight-place executive cabin layout with a forward galley and club seating; optional three-place divan variants exist and are noted as available for this model family. Typical avionics fit for installations is the Collins Pro Line 21, with common upgrade paths documented for operators seeking enhanced situational awareness and connectivity. Operated by Flexjet LLC from its Cleveland base, mission profiles for N522FX generally include transcontinental and offshore point-to-point corporate charters within the aircraft’s roughly 3,100 nm range and cruise speed near 459 kts. Maintenance considerations align with Honeywell HTF7000 engine support programs and Pro Line 21 avionics service bulletins, which factor into operational availability and lifecycle cost assessments.

The Bombardier Challenger 300 (BD-100-1A10) occupies the super-midsize segment, offering a balance of transcontinental range, cabin comfort for eight passengers, and relatively high cruise speed for its class. Competitors include other super-midsize designs offering similar payload-range profiles; buyer and charter demand for well-maintained 2000s Challenger 300s remains steady due to fleet commonality and interior flexibility. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect HTF7000 engine time-between-overhaul economics and avionics upgrade paths such as Pro Line 21 modernization, both of which influence valuation and remarketability.
