N624EM

The airframe registered as N624EM is a 1985-built Bombardier Challenger 601 (CL-600-2A12) manufactured by Canadair Ltd / Bombardier with serial number 3039. The listed owner for this specific airframe is GLOBAL AIRCRAFT TRUST INC TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in Cheyenne, WY, US, and it carries a United States civil registration (US). No additional prior ownership transfers or notable registry actions are provided in the supplied data. The aircraft’s configuration and equipment indicate it was outfitted for executive transport and long-range missions consistent with its original production role.

This Challenger 601 is fitted with a fire-blocked nine/ten-place executive cabin featuring forward club seating and a forward galley, an aft four-place divan on the right-hand side and two facing seats on the left-hand side, plus a full aft lavatory. The avionics fit includes a Sperry EDZ-800 EFIS, Universal Avionics MFD-640, dual Universal UNS-1K FMS units, a Collins communications/navigation suite and TCAS II, supporting modern navigation, traffic awareness and situational display needs for long overwater or cross-country flights. Typical mission profiles for this airframe would include transcontinental and continental U.S. business travel, leveraging the 3,365 nm range and cruise near 424 kts to serve high-utilization executive charter or corporate flight departments. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe would reflect airframe age (built 1985) and the CF34 engine family’s support network, as well as preservation of the executive interior and its fire-blocked materials.

The Challenger 601 family occupies the large-cabin, long-range business jet niche, offering a roomy cabin and intercontinental capability relative to smaller business jets. Common competitors in its era include earlier Gulfstream and Dassault Falcon models that trade cabin size, range and cruise speed differently. Buyer and charter demand for a 1985 Challenger 601 depends on cabin condition, avionics fit (this airframe’s EFIS/MFD/FMS/TCAS complement is favorable) and engine maintenance status of the General Electric CF34-3A powerplants. Resale and maintenance considerations center on airframe hours, engine shop visits and interior refurbishment given the aircraft’s age and the expectations for large-cabin executive transport.
