N605VV

This entry covers the specific airframe N605VV, a 2008-built example of the Bombardier Challenger 605 (CL-600-2B16) with serial number 5773. The airframe is owned by SW AUTOMOTIVE MANAGEMENT HOLDINGS LLC, a corporate owner based in Highlands Ranch, CO, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. Ownership transfer to the current corporate owner is the primary recorded change in the aircraft’s administrative history, and the listed market valuation for this airframe is $11,427,857, which reflects typical mid-life pricing for well-equipped Challengers of this vintage. The aircraft’s condition and operational base are maintained under its corporate ownership in Colorado.

The airframe is equipped with a typical executive cabin layout described for the model as 9–12 passengers with forward club seating and mid/aft divan options, and is certificated for 2 flight crew; the specific registration N605VV is fitted to that common executive interior configuration. Avionics for this airframe follow the model common fitment of the Collins Pro Line 21, supporting long-range corporate missions and charter-type operations out of its Colorado-based operator. Typical missions for this Challenger 605 airframe include transcontinental and transborder executive transport within a 4,123 nm mission radius, operating at cruise speeds near 459 kts and up to a service ceiling of 41,000 ft. Corporate ownership suggests centralized maintenance oversight and scheduling consistent with managed-asset operational patterns.

The airframe belongs to the Bombardier Challenger 600-series family, here represented by the Bombardier Challenger 605 (CL-600-2B16), a long-range, heavy-cabin business jet powered in this example by dual GE CF34-3B turbofans. In its market segment it competes with other large-cabin business jets offering transcontinental capability; buyer and charter demand for examples like N605VV typically emphasizes cabin comfort, range, and avionics maturity such as the Collins Pro Line 21 fit. Mid-life maintenance, overhaul scheduling for the GE CF34-3B engines, and resale considerations influence valuation, reflected in the listed price of $11,427,857 for this specific airframe.
