N553GJ

This article concerns airframe N553GJ, a Bombardier-built regional jet of model Bombardier CRJ-550 (CL-600-2C11) manufactured by Bombardier Aerospace and bearing serial number 10296. The aircraft is owned and operated by GoJet Airlines and is registered in the United States; its owner is listed as GoJet Airlines (a corporation based in the United States). The airframe serves in a regional capacity under its corporate operator and reflects the three-class, 50-seat configuration typical of its customer role. Maintenance and operational records for this specific serial have been managed under the operator’s United States registry and commercial regional network.

The airframe’s cabin is fitted in a three-class 50-seat layout with a typical configuration of 10 First / 20 Economy Plus / 20 Main, tailored to regional premium and high-yield short-haul missions. Operated by GoJet Airlines from its United States base, the aircraft is typically deployed on regional feeder routes and higher-frequency short- to medium-range sectors that prioritize a comfortable premium offering within a 50-seat platform. The twin GE CF34-8C5B1 turbofan engines, each rated at 13,790 lbf, dictate routine maintenance cycles common to CF34-powered regional fleets and influence dispatch reliability and engineering support needs specific to this airframe.

As a member of the CRJ family, the Bombardier CRJ-550 (CL-600-2C11) represented here by serial 10296 occupies a niche as a 50-seat regional jet offering elevated cabin segmentation for premium regional markets. With a cruise speed of 447 kts and a range of 1,378 nm, this airframe is configured for high-frequency regional operations where passenger segmentation and short-stage comfort are prioritized. Maintenance and resale considerations for this specific aircraft hinge on the CF34 engine lineage and the airframe’s three-class interior, factors that affect part support, refurbishment costs, and appeal to operators seeking a premium 50-seat regional asset.
