N540FX

This entry covers airframe N540FX, a production Bombardier Challenger 300 (BD-100-1A10) delivered in 2008 with serial number 20205. The airframe is manufactured by Bombardier Inc. and is owned and operated by Flexjet LLC based in Cleveland, OH, US, holding a US registration. Registry and operational records identify the airframe as an active executive transport with an estimated market value of $10,000,000 and no additional notable public registry actions beyond standard operator control. Condition highlights are limited to the valuation and operator status; detailed maintenance history is not published here.

The cabin of N540FX reflects the type’s typical eight-place executive layout with a forward galley and forward lavatory; common interior variations for this airframe include club seating and two-place divan options. Avionics for the type are typically fitted with Collins Pro Line 21 / Pro Line 21 Advanced, though operator-specific upgrades may vary and are not detailed for this airframe. Operated by Flexjet LLC from its Cleveland base, the aircraft is routinely employed on charter and fractionally owned executive missions within the transcontinental and short international range enabled by its 3,100 nm capability and long-range cruise of 459 kts. Maintenance considerations follow standard Challenger 300 practices for the Honeywell HTF7000-family engines and Pro Line avionics fleet support.

The Bombardier Challenger 300 (BD-100-1A10) occupies the light-large business jet niche, offering transcontinental range and high cruise speed for an eight-seat executive layout. Competitors in its performance and mission set include other late-2000s light-large designs; buyer and charter demand typically favors well-equipped, low-time airframes with Pro Line avionics and HTF-family engine support. Resale and maintenance considerations for N540FX center on the airframe’s 2008 vintage, operator pedigree under Flexjet LLC , and lifecycle costs associated with Honeywell AS907-series engines and avionics upgrades when positioning the asset on the secondary market.
