Avionics fits reported for this airframe include Collins Pro Line II and Honeywell FZ-series suites, reflecting common retrofit and original-equipment variations found on the model.

The Challenger 601-3A (CL-600-2B16) occupies the large-cabin, mid-to-long-range business jet niche, offering a combination of stand-up cabin volume and transcontinental range around 3,430 nm. Competitors historically include large-cabin types from Gulfstream, Bombardier’s later Challenger variants, and certain Dassault and Embraer models in the transcontinental segment. Buyer and charter demand for older 1990s Challenger 601-series airframes is influenced by cabin condition, avionics fit (such as Collins Pro Line II or Honeywell FZ upgrades), engine program status for the CF34-3A2 units, and the airframe’s valuation (here $2,300,000) relative to refurbishing and maintenance costs.
