N554GJ

This entry describes the airframe registered as N554GJ, a Bombardier CRJ-550 (CL-600-2C11) built in 2009 with manufacturer serial number 10297. The airframe is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and is registered in the US. Notable registry actions include its listing under the corporate owner and continuous commercial operation with SkyWest as operator/home base; its documented condition reflects standard regional-airline configuration and lifecycle consistent with its build year.

The aircraft is outfitted in a triple-class cabin configuration—First / Economy Plus / Economy—with a total of 50 seats, reflecting the CRJ-550 conversion focus on premium regional capacity. Avionics are provided by Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4, supporting the navigation, communication, and flight-management requirements typical of regional jet operations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include short- to medium-haul regional routes where higher seat comfort and a three-class layout are marketed; maintenance considerations align with CF34-series engine support and CRJ-series regional-jet component cycles under SkyWest operational standards. The operator base in St George, UT indicates deployment within SkyWest’s network and regional route structure.

The airframe belongs to the Bombardier CRJ-550 variant family derived from the CRJ regional-jet line, tailored to a 50-seat cabin with enhanced passenger classes and the performance characteristics listed above. Its niche is the premium regional market where operators seek improved onboard product while retaining regional economics; competitors in the same mission space include other 50-seat regional jets and small regional variants from competing manufacturers. Maintenance and resale considerations center on CF34 engine commonality, Pro Line 4 avionics supportability, and the airframe’s age profile given its 2009 build date.
