N68UW

This entry covers airframe N68UW, a Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 605 built in 2012 with manufacturer serial number 5925. The aircraft is currently registered in the United States and is registered to KELGEN PARTNERSHIP LLP, a partnership based in Milwaukee, WI, US. Registry records list a 22-seat configuration for this specific airframe, noting that a high-density or charter-style layout is possible. Typical registry and ownership data emphasize the airframe's mid-2010s manufacture date and its ongoing use under a Milwaukee-based partnership.

The cabin of this Challenger 605 is typically fitted as a two-zone executive environment, though the registry for this airframe lists 22 seats, reflecting a high-density or charter-capable arrangement as an alternative to the executive fit. Avionics for the model are commonly the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 suite, which supports advanced flight management and situational awareness needs for long-range business missions. With a cruise speed of 488 kts and a maximum range of 4,045 nm, the airframe is well suited to transcontinental and long regional hops operated from its Milwaukee-based owner-operator, with maintenance considerations centered on the twin GE CF34-3B turbofans.

As a Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 605 airframe manufactured in 2012, N68UW fits within a family positioned for high-comfort corporate transport and high-utilization charter roles thanks to its range and cabin flexibility. Its twin GE CF34-3B engines and the typical Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics package support a balance of performance, reliability, and crew workload reduction. The aircraft’s specifications—4,045 nm range, 488 kts cruise and 41,000 ft ceiling—define its operational niche for long-range business travel or dense-seat charter operations, factors that influence buyer and operator demand as well as lifecycle maintenance planning.
