N605LC

This article concerns airframe N605LC, a 2007-built Bombardier business jet registered in the United States. The airframe is a Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 605, serial number 5740, manufactured by Bombardier Inc. Ownership is recorded to TVPX AIRCRAFT SOLUTIONS INC TRUSTEE (a corporation) based in North Salt Lake, UT, US, which is the registered owner on public record. The aircraft is a fixed-wing multi-engine category jet equipped and documented for both executive and higher-seat capacity configurations; the FAA registry lists 22 seats.

The subject airframe is typically outfitted with a two-zone executive cabin layout, described as a typical 2-zone executive arrangement and commonly fitted for 10–12 passengers in an executive interior, although the FAA registry for this specific aircraft shows 22 seats. The avionics suite installed on this airframe is a Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 package, supporting standard business-jet navigation, communication, and flight-management functionality for the model. Operationally, this Challenger 605 airframe’s performance—long-range capability and high cruise speed—suits transcontinental and some transoceanic missions under corporate or charter operations based from its owner’s location in North Salt Lake, UT. Maintenance and passenger configuration considerations reflect the dual reality of a certified higher-seat count on the registry versus common executive reconfigurations.

The Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 605 occupies the super-midsize business jet niche with a balance of range, cabin size, and operating economics. Powered by twin CF34-3B engines, the type competes with other super-midsize platforms and is sought by buyers and charter operators needing transcontinental legs with comfortable cabin amenities. Market considerations for this airframe include avionics modernization potential (Pro Line 21 remains capable but upgradable), seating configuration variability between executive and higher-density layouts, and standard maintenance items tied to its 2007 manufacture date and cumulative utilization.
