N722DJ

This entry covers airframe N722DJ, a Canadair Challenger 600S (CL-600-1A11) built in 1982 with serial number 1029. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by AIR 6 HOLDINGS LLC of Cheyenne, WY. Manufacturer lineage notes the original builder Canadair (now Bombardier Aerospace). Current public records list a market valuation of $1,000,000, and specific interior configuration and recent major registry actions are not published.

The airframe retains a large-cabin Challenger layout; industry practice for this model commonly fits 8–12 executive seats or configures up to 21 seats in a high-density layout, though the specific current interior of N722DJ is not published. With a long-range capability of 2,909 nm and cruise speed near 425 kts, typical mission profiles would encompass transcontinental business charter sectors, corporate transport, or higher-density commuter operations depending on interior fit. The registered owner, AIR 6 HOLDINGS LLC, is based in Cheyenne, Wyoming, which serves as the operator/home base for registry purposes. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the twin Lycoming ALF-502 powerplants and the age of a 1982-built Challenger, with component lifecycle and overhaul schedules influencing dispatch reliability and operating economics.

The Canadair Challenger 600S family occupies a large-cabin, long-range business jet niche, offering higher passenger capacity compared with light and mid-size competitors while providing transcontinental capability. Competing models in market segments often balance newer avionics and lower operating costs against the Challenger's roomy cabin and payload flexibility. For a 1982 serial 1029, buyer and charter demand depends heavily on airframe condition, interior reconfiguration, and engine status; resale considerations include the cost of ALF-502 maintenance, potential avionics upgrades, and the modest listed valuation of $1,000,000 for this specific aircraft.
