N68888

The airframe bearing registration N68888 is a Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 605 built in 2008 with serial number 5774. It is owned by KWAL LLC (an LLC based in Menomonee Falls, WI, US) and is registered in the US. The aircraft’s contemporary market valuation is listed at $9,000,000. Registered and operated in the United States under the listed corporate owner, this airframe reflects a mid-life Challenger 605 example retaining typical production equipment and configuration.

The cabin of this specific Challenger 605 is finished in a typical two-zone executive layout accommodating 10–12 passengers in forward galley, club seating and aft lav arrangements while being certificated for seating up to 22. Avionics fit on the type is the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 / Pro Line 21 Advanced, which is the typical 605 equipment fit for integrated flight-deck operations and advanced systems monitoring. With a long-range capability of 4,045 nm and a cruise speed around 470 kts, this airframe is suited to intercontinental transcontinental and transoceanic corporate missions from its home base in Menomonee Falls, WI, or comparable North American operating hubs. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft reference its twin GE CF34-3B engines and the service and inspection regimes applicable to mid-life Challenger 605 airframes.

The Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 605 occupies a mid-to-large cabin business jet niche established by Bombardier Inc., offering long-range performance and transcontinental capability as demonstrated by the 4,045 nm range and 41,000 ft ceiling of this airframe. Typical buyers and charter operators seek the Challenger 605 for its two‑crew, high-capacity executive layout and modern Pro Line 21 avionics suite. Market and resale considerations for this particular example are influenced by its build year (2008), engine type (GE CF34-3B), avionics fit, and the current stated value of $9,000,000, factors that drive ongoing demand and owner maintenance planning.
