Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered N542GJ, is a Bombardier CRJ-550 (CL-600-2C11) built in 2008 with manufacturer serial number 10266. It is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and carries a United States registration. Registry records identify the airframe by its serial and tail number; valuation and formal condition reporting for this specific airframe are Not published. The aircraft is operated in the regional airline role consistent with its operator’s network and remains listed under corporate ownership at the operator’s base.
The cabin of this specific CRJ-550 is configured in a three-class layout—First / Economy Plus / Economy—with 50 seats in the CRJ-550 operator-fit configuration. Avionics are the ProLine/Rockwell-Collins-class suite typical to the CRJ-700 series, though operator fit varies and final avionics fitment reflects SkyWest’s installation choices. With a cruise speed of 447 kts and a range of 1,378 nm, the airframe is deployed on regional and short-medium stage routes consistent with a regional operator’s mission profile. Maintenance and operational considerations for this airframe follow the CRJ family practices and the installed GE CF34-8C5B1 powerplants’ support network.
As a CL-600-2C11 airframe marketed as the Bombardier CRJ-550, this aircraft combines the CRJ-700-series avionics architecture with a 50-seat, three-class cabin layout, positioning it for higher-yield regional operations within an operator’s network. Performance figures for this airframe—447 kts cruise, 1,378 nm range and a 41,000 ft ceiling—define its niche as a short- to medium-range regional jet suitable for frequent turnarounds. The use of twin GE CF34-8C5B1 engines aligns it with maintenance and parts support ecosystems for CF34-powered regional types. Resale and long-term market considerations for this specific serial are subject to operator configuration, installed avionics, and unpublished valuation data.
