This individual Challenger 601-3A is configured to accommodate 22 seats, reflecting a high-density or corporate shuttle interior typical of late-model Challengers prepared for charter or corporate transport. With a maximum cruise of 443 kts and a ferry/mission range of 3,300 nm, typical operations for this airframe would include transcontinental U.S. missions and medium-haul international hops when operating from its Missoula, MT base. The twin CF34-3A series turbofans provide a certified service ceiling of 41,000 ft, enabling efficient high-altitude cruise and favorable fuel-burn characteristics for the type.

The Canadair Challenger 601-3A (CL-600-2B16) sits in the large-cabin, long-range business jet niche, offering a balance of passenger capacity and intercontinental reach exemplified by this airframe’s 3,300 nm range and 22-seat capability. Powered by twin CF34 series engines with 9,140 lbf thrust each, the model competes with other large-cabin types for corporate shuttle and charter roles, where buyer and charter demand often focuses on cabin space, reliability, and operating economics. For this specific airframe, resale and maintenance considerations would align with typical Challenger 601-3A service items, airframe age (manufactured in 1992) and any differences driven by interior configuration and upkeep under CHALLENGER 601 HOLDINGS LLC ownership.
