Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N723GH, is a Bombardier-built business jet of the model Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 601-3A, serial number 5086, delivered in 1991. The aircraft is registered to STARSHIP 1 LLC, an LLC based in Houston, TX, US, and carries US registration status. Contemporary valuations place this specific airframe at $2,300,000, reflecting its age, configuration and market position. Notable registry activity includes its current ownership record listing under STARSHIP 1 LLC in Houston, indicating operator/home base ties to that location.

The Challenger 601-3A airframe N723GH is configured with 22 seats, supporting high-density corporate transport, group charter or combi roles consistent with that seating capacity. The cabin layout and exact avionics fit for this specific aircraft are Not published; however, the jet’s performance—3,430 nm range and 442 kt cruise—positions it for transcontinental missions and medium long-range point-to-point charters operated from its Houston base. Maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on its twin General Electric CF34-3A2 engines, each rated at 9,220 lbf, which drive recurring engine program costs and scheduled inspections typical of early-1990s airframes. Given its 1991 build year and current valuation of $2,300,000, operators will weigh retrofit or avionics upgrade needs against mission requirements.

The Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 601-3A family occupies a performance niche as a large-cabin, long-range corporate jet from the early 1990s, offering transcontinental capability with a service ceiling of 41,000 ft. Competing aircraft generally target similar mission profiles, and buyer or charter demand for older 601-3A examples is driven by acquisition cost, retrofit potential and operating economics. For this specific airframe, age, engine type (CF34-3A2) and the listed market value of $2,300,000 will factor heavily into resale prospects and maintenance planning for prospective owners or operators.
