N746SK

This entry documents airframe N746SK, a 2005-built Bombardier CRJ-701ER (Canadair CL-600-2C10) bearing serial number 10202. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by SkyWest Airlines, a corporation based in St. George, UT, US, reflecting operator-controlled regional airline deployment rather than independent corporate or private use. There are no other published transfers or notable registry events for this specific serial in the supplied data; condition and valuation specifics are not provided here. The aircraft’s production lineage ties directly to Bombardier Aerospace (Canadair) factory output for the CRJ700-series in the mid-2000s.

The airframe is outfitted with a typical 70-seat two-by-two cabin configuration, with operator-specific options allowing single- or two-class arrangements and an interior that features a forward galley and an aft lavatory; pitch and finish follow SkyWest’s fitted standard for the type. Avionics on this production-series CRJ-701ER are from the Rockwell Collins Pro Line family (the Pro Line 4 common fit for CRJ700-series production aircraft), supporting regional airline navigation, communication, and flight-management requirements. In revenue service with SkyWest, the aircraft’s mission profile is predominantly short- to medium-range regional routes where its passenger count, cruise speed and range align with banked regional schedules and high-frequency feeder operations. Maintenance cycles and component support are consistent with in-service CRJ700-series practices, with emphasis on CF34 engine shop visits and avionics support for Pro Line systems.

The Bombardier CRJ-701ER sits within the CRJ700 family niche as a 70-seat regional jet optimized for point-to-point and spoke-to-hub markets; its performance—cruise around 447 kts and ceiling to 41,000 ft—places it among typical regional jets competing with similarly sized variants from Embraer. Demand among regional carriers and charter operators historically centers on fleet commonality, operating economics, and engine-support availability for the GE CF34-8C1. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on airframe hours, CF34 shop visit status, Pro Line avionics lifecycle, and cabin refurbishment potential to meet different operator configuration standards.
