N604GF

This airframe, registered as N604GF, is a 1998-built Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 601-3A manufactured by Bombardier Inc. and bearing serial number 5399. The aircraft is recorded in US registry and is owned by TVPX AIRCRAFT SOLUTIONS INC TRUSTEE, a corporation/trustee based in North Salt Lake, UT, US. The Challenger 601-3A airframe reflects late-1990s Challenger production standards and retains typical registry entries and maintenance tracking consistent with corporate trust ownership. Ownership by a trustee entity suggests operation under corporate asset management and potential use in charter or leased operations.

The airframe is configured for up to 22 seats, a common flexible layout in Challenger 601-3A examples that accommodates combinations of club seating, divans, and service areas for executive or high-capacity charter missions. Avionics fit is listed as Collins Pro Line II / typical 601-era suites (varies by retrofit), indicating this specific airframe may retain legacy 601-era avionics with the possibility of individual retrofit packages applied over its service life. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its 3,430 nm range and 424 kts cruise, include transcontinental and medium-haul international charters, corporate transport, or trustee-managed lease operations from its North Salt Lake, UT ownership base. Maintenance considerations reflect the CF34-3A engine family and Challenger 601 airframe service programs, with routine heavy checks driven by serial production era and utilization history.

The Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 601-3A occupies the midsize cabin business jet niche for late-1990s designs, offering robust range and cabin flexibility relative to contemporaries. Competing models include other midsize jets of the era with similar cruise and range characteristics; buyer and charter demand typically favors well-maintained airframes with updated avionics and interior refurbishments. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial 5399 airframe focus on CF34-3A engine hours/cycles, structural checks appropriate to a 1998 build, and any avionics retrofits from the original Collins Pro Line II fit.
