N709SK

The airframe bearing tail number N709SK is a Bombardier CRJ-701ER (CL-600-2C10) completed in 2004 with serial number 10159. It is registered in the United States and documented as owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in Saint George, UT, US; the airframe’s public records reflect operation within SkyWest’s regional network. The aircraft is configured as a fixed-wing, multi-engine regional jet and carries an assessed market value of $3,900,000 in available data, with condition and valuation contingent on maintenance status and interior refurbishment history.

This specific CRJ-701ER is fitted in a 69-seat regional passenger layout, with typical single-class or dual-class mixes varying by operator; the supplied data indicates a regional single-class style configuration for routine commuter missions. Avionics for the CRJ-700 family fit are typically the Rockwell Collins ProLine suite, which supports regional operations, short-field performance, and frequent turnarounds. With a cruise speed of 447 kts and a maximum certified ceiling of 41,000 ft, the type is commonly used on short- to medium-haul routes within airline networks based from SkyWest hubs. Maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on CF34-8C5 engine shop visit status and airframe hours/cycles under the owning carrier’s regional utilization practices.

The Bombardier CRJ-701ER sits within the CRJ-700 family niche as a stretched regional jet designed to serve high-frequency regional routes with up to 69 seats and transmittable range of 1,732 nm. Competing models in the regional jet market include variants of Embraer’s E-Jet series and other CRJ family members; operators evaluate results based on fuel burn, seat-mile costs, and engine maintenance cycles for the CF34-8C5 powerplant. Resale and remarketing considerations for this airframe depend on overall life-limited component status, avionics fit such as Rockwell Collins ProLine, and the prevailing demand for 70-seat regional jets in secondary markets.
