N712SK

This airframe, registered N712SK, is a Bombardier CRJ-701ER (CL-600-2C10) built in 2004 with manufacturer serial number 10172. The aircraft is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and is registered in the US. Entered service in 2004 under SkyWest ownership and commonly operated in regional airline service; no additional public registry actions are published for this specific airframe. Condition and valuation particulars are not published in the provided data.

The aircraft is configured within the typical regional two-class, single-aisle layout described for the CRJ-700 series, which ranges between 69–80 seats depending on operator; SkyWest commonly operates a 69-seat configuration on CRJ-700s, though this specific airframe’s maximum certified seating is 80. Avionics aboard this airframe follow the common fit for the series with a Rockwell Collins ProLine 4 suite, supporting regional airline operational requirements and crew workflows. Typical mission profiles for this type include short- to medium-range regional routes where the combination of the CF34-8C5 engines, cruise speed of 447 kts, and range of 1,303 nm suit frequent daily rotations, feeder services to hubs, and multi-leg turnarounds. Maintenance considerations align with CRJ-700 family schedules and regional carrier heavy-check cycles under SkyWest’s maintenance programs.

The Bombardier CRJ-701ER sits in the regional jet niche as a stretched variant of the CRJ family offering higher capacity and range compared with earlier CRJ variants. Competing models in its segment historically include Embraer regional jets and smaller narrowbody types when deployed on longer regional sectors. Demand among regional carriers favors airframes with proven CF34 powerplants and ProLine avionics for commonality and operational efficiency; resale and maintenance considerations typically reference airframe hours, cycle counts, and operator retrofit choices such as seat count and interior refurbishment.
