Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N729HZ, is a 2008-built Bombardier Challenger 605 (CL-600-2B16) with manufacturer serial number 5749. The aircraft is owned by CHAI TRUST CO LLC TRUSTEE, a trust based in Chicago, IL, US, and is US-registered (US). Recorded ownership under a Chicago-based trust reflects typical trust-held corporate operator structures. Valuation for the airframe is listed at $10,000,000, and the Challenger 605 configuration and equipment on this serial have supported executive transport operations since build.
The cabin of this Challenger 605 is outfitted in a typical two-zone executive layout: forward galley, forward four-place club, mid two-place club opposite a three-place divan, with an aft lavatory, providing an executive fit for approximately nine to twelve passengers and a nominal 10-seat configuration. Avionics aboard this airframe reflect a common fleet standard with a Collins Pro Line 21 fit or comparable upgrade, supporting advanced situational awareness and systems integration. Operationally, this platform and its installed performance—3,732 nm range and 488 kts cruise—are well suited to long-range executive missions and transcontinental charters flown from its owner’s Chicago base, with typical missions emphasizing speed, range, and passenger comfort. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft center on the twin General Electric CF34-3B engines and avionics lifecycle management consistent with mid-life 2008-built fleet examples.
As a member of the Bombardier Challenger 600-series family, the Challenger 605 airframe (CL-600-2B16) targets the mid-size, long-range business jet segment, combining transcontinental range and cabin comfort. With a certified ceiling of 41,000 ft and the listed performance figures, buyers and charter operators value this model for balanced operating economics and cabin capacity. Market and resale considerations for this specific serial include engine lifecycle and avionics commonality—here reflected by the CF34-3B engines and Collins Pro Line 21—which influence maintenance scheduling, upgrade pathways, and valuation at the reported $10,000,000 level.
