N685SK

This airframe, registered as N685SK, is a Bombardier CRJ-700 Series 701 (CL-600-2C10) built by Bombardier Inc. in 2003 with manufacturer serial number 10093. The aircraft is owned by SkyWest Airlines Inc (a corporation) with a corporate location recorded as St. George, UT, US, and it carries US civil registration. The airframe configuration reflects SkyWest’s regional-passenger role and, while there are no public records here of major incident history, the type and operator indicate routine line operations and common regional fleet utilization. Assigned to SkyWest’s regional network with a St. George operational connection, this CRJ-700 would typically be maintained to regional carrier standards and configured to the operator’s dispatch and lease/regulatory profiles.

The aircraft is fitted in an approximately 69-seat regional passenger layout specific to SkyWest’s configuration, optimized for short- to medium-haul trunk and feeder routes. Avionics are listed as Rockwell Collins Pro Line series with operator-specific fit variations, reflecting common retrofit or operator-fit options for navigation, communications and flight management systems on this series. Typical missions for this airframe include high-frequency regional services linking hubs and spoke markets, where the CRJ-700’s seating and performance deliver efficient sector economics. Maintenance considerations for this individual airframe follow CRJ-700 fleet practices, with operator maintenance programs and parts commonality reducing downtime across serial-numbered sister ships.

The Bombardier CRJ-700 Series 701 (CL-600-2C10) occupies the regional jet niche between smaller ERJ and larger single-aisle types, offering about 69 seats and cruise speeds near 447 kts with trans-regional ranges around 1,434 nm. Competitors include Embraer E-Jets in similar capacity segments; demand centers on regional airlines and capacity providers seeking fleet commonality and operating efficiency. Resale and maintenance considerations emphasize CF34 engine shop visit cycles and Pro Line avionics support; fleet-history, operator configuration and maintenance records materially influence marketability.
