Model & Market Context

This entry covers airframe N604FM, a Bombardier-built business jet completed in 2001 with manufacturer serial number 5488. The airframe is recorded as owned by BLUE FIVE LLC, an Omaha-based limited liability company (Omaha, NE, US), and is registered in the US civil registry. Registration and ownership have been consolidated under BLUE FIVE LLC, and the recorded configuration and equipment reflect a standard executive Challenger 604 outfitting as maintained by the current owner. Condition highlights for this specific airframe are limited to factory-built specification and installed equipment; no public record of major incident history is included in the provided data.

The cabin of this Challenger 604 is configured in an executive 11–12 passenger layout with a forward four-place club and an aft four-place conference group fitted with a berthable divan, supporting up to 12 occupants in executive transport roles. Avionics on this airframe are installed as Collins Pro Line 4, including triple FMS-6000, Collins EFIS/EFIS displays and Collins comm/nav suite, enabling modern navigation and long-range flight planning consistent with transcontinental and some intercontinental missions. Typical missions for this aircraft emphasize corporate transport and owner-operated travel between major city pairs within its 3,756 nm range at cruise speeds near 459 kts, operating from the operator’s Omaha, NE base and other continental US hubs. Maintenance considerations follow Challenger 604 schedules for CF34-3B engines and Pro Line 4 avionics support, with attention to divan/berth systems and interior refurbishments in executive-configured airframes.

The Bombardier Challenger 604 (CL-600-2B16) sits in the large-cabin, long-range business jet segment, offering performance suited to cross-country and transcontinental missions with a high-comfort interior. Competitors in this niche include late-model heavy light/large-cabin jets that balance range near 3,700+ nm and passenger capacity up to a dozen. Buyer and charter demand typically focuses on cabin size, interior condition, and avionics standardization—here, the Pro Line 4 fit supports continued operational relevance. Resale and maintenance considerations emphasize CF34 series engine support and avionics lifecycle management for Challenger 604 airframes of this vintage.
