N765WT

The airframe bearing registration N765WT is a 1989-built Bombardier (Canadair) Challenger 601-3A, serial number 5039, manufactured by Bombardier Aerospace (Canadair). Currently registered to W W Tichenor & Co Inc, a San Antonio, TX-based corporation, the jet appears in public records as a U.S.-registered executive transport. The entry lists a typical corporate owner/operator profile rather than an active commercial operator; notable registry detail includes the corporate ownership and San Antonio location as the registered home base. Public valuation snapshots place this specific Challenger at approximately $2,300,000, offering a summary indicator of condition and market position for this airframe vintage.

The cabin for this airframe is reported within the family norm as a typical 10–12 passenger executive layout; the exact fitout for N765WT is not published in public listings. With 10 seats recorded, the aircraft would commonly be utilized on corporate transport missions and medium- to long-range point-to-point executive flights consistent with a 3,003 nm range and 443 kts cruise. Registered in the United States and owned by a San Antonio corporation, operational basing and routine missions are likely centered on corporate use out of that region. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect general Challenger 601-3A practices driven by its twin CF34-3A engines and late-1980s airframe vintage.

The Bombardier (Canadair) Challenger 601-3A occupies a performance niche as a large-cabin corporate jet offering intercontinental capability within the mid-size to heavy light-heavy class. Competing models in its era and resale market position typically include other large-cabin business jets with similar range and cruise performance; resale valuation near $2,300,000 reflects age, engine type, and cabin capacity. Buyers and charter operators evaluating this airframe would weigh engine-life, avionics updates, and interior refurbishment against the aircraft’s solid ceiling (41,000 ft) and practical 3,003 nm mission capability.
