N604CR

The airframe bearing tail number N604CR is a 2005-built Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604, serial 5615, recorded in U.S. registry. The aircraft is owned by US AUTO FINANCE LEASING LLC, a corporation based in Wilmington, DE, US, and is registered for operation in the US. The airframe’s valuation is listed at $6,000,000, reflecting market expectations for a mid‑2000s Challenger 604 in serviceable condition. The registry entry notes certification flexibility for seating, and the operator/home base details beyond the corporate owner location are not published.

The cabin for this airframe is normally outfitted in a typical 10–12 passenger executive layout (forward club, mid divan/club), though the registry for N604CR lists certification for 22 seats depending on interior specification, permitting either executive transport or higher-density configurations. Avionics commonly fitted on 604 series examples and associated with this airframe include the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4 suite. Typical mission profiles for this Challenger 604 configuration would include transcontinental and international executive travel within the listed 4,077 nm range and high-speed cruise operations around 459 kts, operating from the owner’s U.S. base for charter, corporate lease, or asset management tasks. Maintenance considerations for this specific jet align with CF34 series engine support and airframe avionics lifecycle for a 2005 build.

The Bombardier Challenger 604 family occupies the midsize long-range business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability, robust twin CF34 engines, and a high‑comfort cabin adaptable between executive and higher-density seating. Competing models include other midsize long‑range types that emphasize similar range and passenger comfort; market demand typically favors well‑maintained 604s with upgraded avionics like the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4. Resale and maintenance considerations for N604CR reflect age-related component life limits, CF34 engine shop visit cycles, and the impact of interior configuration on asset value within the used business jet market.
