Model & Market Context
The airframe, registered as N604BC, is a 2000-built Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604 with manufacturer serial number 5455. The aircraft is owned by WPC HOLDINGS LLC, an LLC based in Bluefield, WV, US, and is recorded on the U.S. registry under a U.S. registration. Ownership is held by the single LLC listed on the registration, and there are no other published transfer events in the supplied data. As of the provided valuation data the airframe is assigned an estimated market value of $6,000,000, reflecting a mature 604-series example with typical equipment and executive interior fit.
This specific Challenger 604 is configured with a typical executive cabin described as a 10–12 passenger forward club / aft club or divan option and retains stand-up headroom of approximately 6.1 ft; it is certified for up to 19 passengers. The airframe is commonly equipped with a Collins Pro Line 4 avionics suite, the common fit for 604-series airframes, supporting standard approach, navigation and communication capabilities for business and charter operations. Operated from its owner’s base in Bluefield, WV, US, the aircraft’s 4,119 nm range and 459 kt cruise speed make it suitable for medium- to long-range executive transport and transcontinental U.S. missions; routine maintenance considerations follow typical 604 schedules for CF34-3B engines and airframe heavy-check cycles.
The Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604 occupies a niche as a large-cabin, long-range business jet within the late-model 1990s–2000s market, offering transcontinental capability and stand-up cabin comfort. Common competitors include other large-cabin, long-range types of the era; demand is typically driven by corporate and fractional buyers or charter operators seeking a balance of cabin size and range. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe reflect the CF34-3B powerplants’ overhaul schedules and the aftermarket appetite for 604s equipped with Collins Pro Line 4 avionics; the provided market value of $6,000,000 aligns with an airframe of this vintage and equipment fit.
