N656CA

This airframe is registered as N656CA, a Bombardier CRJ-550 (CL-600-2C11) built by Bombardier Inc. in 2004 with manufacturer serial number 10143. The airframe is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporate owner located in St George, UT, US, and is registered in the US. As a 55-seat derivative configured for regional airline use, this specific aircraft carries the operator-configured cabin and standard CRJ700-family avionics fit; there are no additional published valuation or condition details for this tail in the provided data.

The aircraft is equipped with a 55-seat regional single-aisle, operator-configured cabin layout appropriate for short- to medium-haul regional routes; seating density reflects a higher-capacity regional configuration rather than business-jet appointments. Avionics are provided as the Rockwell Collins ProLine common fit for the CRJ700 family, supporting standard airline operational requirements and regional airliner avionics integration. Operated by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC from its corporate location in St George, UT, US, the airframe’s mission profile typically includes high-frequency regional services with turn-oriented scheduling and maintenance cycles aligned to commercial regional airline practices. Maintenance considerations for this aircraft follow CF34-8C5 engine lifecycle and CRJ-series airframe programs customary to regional carriers.

The CL-600-2C11 CRJ-550 occupies a niche within regional turbofan markets as a high-density, short- to medium-range airliner derived from the CRJ700 family and retains similar systems and avionics commonality. With a cruise speed of 447 kts and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, it competes operationally with other regional jets that prioritize frequency and seat-mile economics over long-haul range, such as shortened-config regional variants of larger families. Buyer and operator demand typically centers on fleet commonality, seat-density requirements, and engine support for the GE CF34-8C5; resale and heavy-maintenance considerations hinge on airframe hours, Cycles, and the operator-configured 55-seat interior.
