N538XJ

This airframe, registered in the United States as N538XJ, is a 2008 Bombardier BD-100-1A10 Challenger 300 bearing serial number 20224. The aircraft is owned by the corporation BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, located in Salt Lake City, UT, and is recorded as a corporate trustee-owned asset; currently held by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE in Salt Lake City, UT. It is operated and based in the U.S. under the US registration, with registry entries listing its build year, serial, and corporate ownership. Notable registry actions and detailed valuation or condition reports are not published.

The cabin on this airframe is reported as a typical eight-place executive double-club layout with a forward galley and an enclosed lavatory, reflecting the manufacturer’s standard executive fit for eight passengers. Avionics are listed as Collins Pro Line 21 in typical configuration, with a note that ProLine Advance upgrades are common across the model type; specific upgrade status for this tail is not published. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its 3,100 nm range and high cruise speed, include transcontinental executive transport and on-demand charter hops; its corporate trustee ownership suggests utilization for fractional, corporate, or asset-management operations based from its owner’s Salt Lake City location. Maintenance considerations follow manufacturer and Honeywell engine schedules for the HTF7000 family, with attention to avionics upgrade pathways where ProLine Advance retrofits are often pursued.

The BD-100-1A10 Challenger 300 occupies the light-cabin super-midsize market niche, offering long range and high cruise speed relative to its class. With twin Honeywell AS907-1-1A engines and a 45,000 ft ceiling, the type competes with other super-midsize business jets targeting transcontinental missions. Buyer and charter demand typically prioritize cabin comfort (the eight-place double-club layout), range, and avionics modernization; resale considerations for this specific 2008 airframe center on engine cycles, avionics fit (Pro Line 21 vs. ProLine Advance), and the condition history documented under its corporate ownership.
