N603SK

This entry covers airframe N603SK, a 2006-built Bombardier CRJ-701ER (CL-600-2C10), constructor serial number 10248. The aircraft is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and is registered in the US as a fixed‑wing multi‑engine transport. Its build year and serial are used to track maintenance status and lifecycle events specific to this airframe, while operator records reflect its role in regional airline service under SkyWest. Valuation and formal condition summaries for this individual airframe are not published in the provided data.

The airframe carries a Regional 69-seat single-aisle passenger layout (SkyWest regional configuration) optimized for short- to medium‑haul regional trunking and frequency-driven markets. Avionics are fitted with Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4 (typical for CRJ700-series), supporting modern navigation, communications, and flight management tasks typical of regional airline operations. With a 69-seat cabin and the CF34-8C5B1 powerplants, the aircraft’s mission profile centers on high-frequency, short-stage-length routes connecting hubs and spoke destinations where seat density and turnaround efficiency are priorities. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with CF34-8C series engine programs and regional airframe schedules, with serial‑specific service history and operator-maintenance records governing heavy checks and component life-limited parts.

The Bombardier CRJ-701ER (CL-600-2C10) represented a stretched member of the CRJ700 family, positioned to serve the 69-seat regional market niche with translatable performance metrics: a 1,732 nm range, 447 kt cruise, and 41,000 ft service ceiling suited to short-to-medium stage lengths. In secondary markets, aircraft like this are evaluated on remaining fatigue life, engine cycles on GE CF34-8C5B1 engines, and avionics fit—here the Pro Line 4 package—that affect resale and lessee interest. Buyer demand typically reflects fleet commonality considerations for regional carriers and the cost of upcoming maintenance events tied to the airframe’s 2006 manufacture date and serial history.
