N601WY

The airframe bearing registration N601WY is a Canadair/Bombardier-built Bombardier Challenger 604 (CL-600-2B16) completed in 1992 with manufacturer serial number 5117. The aircraft is held in co-ownership by 601 ASSETS LLC, based in Lighthouse Point, FL, US, and is registered in the US. Over its service life this Challenger 604 has been valued at $6,000,000, reflecting an airframe from the early 1990s with continuing utility for executive transport and charter operations. Routine registry actions have maintained its US registration and the airframe is commonly operated from its Florida home base for regional and longer-range missions.

The cabin configuration for N601WY follows the Challenger 604 certification that allows up to 22 seats, with typical executive fit-outs commonly installing 8–12 seats for long-range corporate missions; individual interior furnishings vary by owner. Avionics and specific interior appointments are owner-dependent and not published here, but the platform is routinely used on transcontinental and long over-water sectors within its 3,756 nm range and at typical cruise speeds near 442 kts. Based in Lighthouse Point, FL, the aircraft is well suited to serve executive transport, on-demand charter and corporate itineraries across the continental US, Caribbean and parts of Latin America. Maintenance considerations align with mid-life Challenger 604 norms, including periodic engine and avionics upgrades driven by operator preference and regulatory requirements.

The Bombardier Challenger 604 family occupies the large-cabin, transcontinental business jet niche with solid range and payload capability for its vintage. Competing models historically include late-model Gulfstream and Dassault midsize and super-midsize types; demand for 1990s-build 604s typically centers on cost-conscious buyers and charter operators seeking cabin size and range at lower acquisition prices. Resale and maintenance considerations for N601WY reflect its age, hourly engine cycles on CF34-3A2 powerplants and the market value noted at $6,000,000, with potential value uplift tied to interior refurbishment and avionics modernization.
