N701SK

This airframe, registered as N701SK, is a Bombardier CRJ-701ER (CL-600-2C10) built in 2004 with manufacturer serial number 10133. The aircraft is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and is registered in the US; its corporate ownership and operator alignment place it within SkyWest’s regional fleet structure. As a fixed-wing, multi-engine regional jet, N701SK typically operates in the short- to medium-haul regional market and is maintained to meet the operator’s configuration and dispatch standards. No separate historical owners or notable registry transactions are recorded in the supplied data.

The aircraft features the typical regional single-aisle passenger layout for the CRJ-700/CRJ-550 family, with the supplied data indicating 80 seats though operator-specific seating for SkyWest commonly ranges from 69–80 seats. Avionics fit is consistent with common CRJ-700 installations, identifying a Rockwell Collins ProLine‑style EFIS cockpit as the installed avionics suite. In service with SkyWest, this airframe is deployed on regional trunk and spoke routes where a 1,700–1,800 nm range and high cruise speed support multi-leg schedules; missions commonly include short-to-medium stage lengths, high-frequency shuttle operations, and rapid turnarounds. Maintenance considerations align with CF34-series engine support and regional jet inspection cycles as managed by the operator; no unique cabin amenities beyond operator-standard configurations are specified in the supplied data.

The Bombardier CRJ-701ER (CL-600-2C10) occupies the regional jet niche between smaller commuter types and larger narrowbodies, offering a balance of speed, range, and seat capacity for 70–80 passenger sectors. Competing models in the same market segment include stretched regional jets and smaller narrowbodies from other manufacturers; demand is typically driven by regional airlines and capacity-rights operations. From a maintenance and resale standpoint, considerations center on CF34 engine maintenance programs, avionics commonality (Rockwell Collins ProLine), and operator-configured seating that affects marketability; fleet buyers value airframes with established operator support and predictable regional mission profiles.
