N650HN

This entry concerns airframe N650HN, a 2020-built Bombardier Challenger 650 (CL-600-2B16) bearing serial number 6160. The jet was manufactured by Bombardier Inc. and is recorded as owned by the Costa Rica–based corporation MS Multiservicios del Sur (Grupo Numar), located in San José, Costa Rica, with a United States registration. The airframe’s transfer into corporate hands and its US registration are notable registry actions reflecting cross-border ownership and operation. Valued at approximately $26,000,000, the aircraft presents a late-model condition consistent with its 2020 build year and executive interior fit.

The airframe carries a typical executive layout configured for 9–12 passengers with a forward galley and aft lavatory, in line with an executive interior specification for the Challenger 650 family. Avionics are fitted with the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 Advanced (Pro Line 21 / Vision flight deck) suite, supporting precision navigation and modern crew situational awareness for business missions. Operated from the owner’s base in San José, Costa Rica under US registration, the aircraft is suited to transcontinental and longer-range regional flights within its 4,000 nm ferry/endurance capability and cruise speed of 424 kts. Maintenance considerations reflect the twin CF34-3B powerplants and Pro Line 21 avionics common to the type, with scheduled checks aligned to manufacturer and engine OEM programs.

The Bombardier Challenger 650 (CL-600-2B16) sits in the large-cabin, long-range executive jet niche, offering a balance of transcontinental range and comfortable cabin for up to a dozen passengers. Competing models typically include other large-cabin platforms from Gulfstream, Dassault, and newer Bombardier variants, with buyer and charter demand favoring late-model examples such as this 2020 airframe. Resale and maintenance considerations for N650HN will reflect engine lifecycle status of the CF34-3B MTO units, Pro Line 21 avionics support, and the global market appetite for late-production Challenger 650 cabins and systems.
