N614QX

This airframe, registered N614QX, is a Bombardier CRJ-701ER (CL-600-2C10) built in 2002 with manufacturer's serial number 10049. The airframe is owned by SkyWest Airlines Inc. (a corporation based in St. George, UT, USA) and is associated with SkyWest as its operator/home base. Public records do not list any prominent registry actions or notable incidents for this specific tail number; condition and valuation details have not been published. The aircraft retains standard regional operator configuration and service identity consistent with SkyWest fleet practices.

The airframe is outfitted in a single-aisle, 2–2 seating pattern configured for approximately 69–70 passengers in a regional coach layout, matching typical CRJ-700/701 cabin arrangements. Avionics are the Rockwell Collins ProLine 4 suite as commonly fitted on CRJ-700 family aircraft, supporting modern navigation, flight management and crew systems for regional operations. Operated by SkyWest from its St. George, Utah corporate base, the aircraft is employed on short- to medium-haul regional trunk and feeder routes where quick turnaround and high-frequency scheduling are required. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft focus on the twin CF34-8C5 turbofans and standard regional fleet airframe checks under SkyWest’s heavy and line maintenance programs.

The Bombardier CRJ-701ER is a stretched variant in the CRJ family providing roughly 70 seats, 1,400 nm range and a high single-pilot IFR capability for regional carriers; this airframe’s cruise of 447 kts and 41,000 ft ceiling enable efficient regional sector performance. In the market, CRJ-700/701-class aircraft compete primarily with the Embraer E-Jet family (E170/E175) for franchise and regional-jet roles, with buyer demand influenced by seat count, operating economics, and fleet commonality. For operators and prospective buyers of this airframe, considerations include lifecycle costs tied to CF34 engine maintenance, avionics commonality provided by ProLine 4, and the resale position of early-2000s CRJ-700-series airframes in the regional used-aircraft market.
