N708SK

This airframe, registered as N708SK, is a 2004-built Bombardier CRJ-701ER (CL-600-2C10) with manufacturer serial number 10156. The aircraft is recorded as owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporate owner based in Saint George, UT, US, and has been operated in SkyWest's regional fleet under US registration. Built by Bombardier Inc. in 2004, the airframe is a stretched regional jet variant intended for 70-seat regional routes; its corporate ownership and US registry reflect typical North American regional carrier asset management. No separate public record of notable registry actions beyond its continuous operation under SkyWest is provided here, and condition or valuation specifics are not published in the supplied data.

This particular CRJ-701ER configuration seats 70 passengers in a single-class regional layout typical of SkyWest operations, matching the aircraft’s intended role on short- to medium-haul trunk and regional sectors. The twin GE CF34-8C5 engines provide the thrust necessary for quick climb profiles and frequent rotations common to regional airline schedules, supporting a maximum cruise of 447 knots and a service ceiling of 41,000 feet. With a published range of 1,650 nautical miles, the airframe is suited to higher-frequency regional hops and thin long-stage routes that do not require widebody capacity. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow the CRJ-series common practices, focusing on engine shop visits for CF34 variants and airframe checks aligned with high-cycle regional usage.

The Bombardier CRJ-701ER sits within the CRJ family as a regional jet optimized for 60–70 seat markets, competing with other regional jets and smaller narrowbodies for short- to medium-haul services. Its performance niche emphasizes efficient sector economics for regional carriers; the GE CF34 engine series and commonality within the CRJ line support parts availability and established maintenance procedures. In resale and secondary markets, CRJ airframes like N708SK are evaluated for cycle life, maintenance status, and operator records; demand is driven by regional carriers and charter operators seeking proven regional jet capacity.
