N777GU

This entry covers the specific airframe bearing tail number N777GU, a Canadair (Bombardier) Challenger 601-3A (CL-600-2B16) completed in 1990 with manufacturer serial number 5084. The jet is owned and registered to GUG LLC, an LLC based in Doral, FL, US, and carries U.S. registration. Notable registry actions include its continued U.S. registration and documented ownership by GUG LLC, with an assessed current market/value figure of $1,200,000 reflecting its age and configuration. The airframe has a typical executive interior and systems common to upgraded Challenger 601-3A examples.

The subject Challenger 601-3A, N777GU, is fitted with a typical executive nine–12-place interior while retaining a maximum certified seating capacity of 22, and features a forward galley and aft lavatory. Its avionics fit reflects common Challenger 601-3A upgrade practice and is typically equipped with Collins Pro Line II systems, supporting conventional corporate operations and IFR mission capability. Based at the owner’s location in Doral, FL, US, its mission profile is consistent with medium-range business transport—point-to-point domestic and regional international flights within its 3,289 nm range at cruise speeds near 424 kts. Maintenance considerations on this airframe follow CF34-series engine programs and airframe-level inspections appropriate for a 1990-built Challenger in corporate service.

The Canadair/Bombardier Challenger 601-3A family occupies the mid-size, long-range business jet niche with performance suited to transcontinental missions and demanding corporate schedules, exemplified by this CL-600-2B16 airframe. Competing models in the era and secondary market include other mid-size business jets with similar range and cabin capacity; resale values for 1990-vintage Challengers are sensitive to avionics, interior refurbishment, and engine program status, factors reflected in the assessed $1,200,000 value for N777GU. Buyers and charter operators target this model for its roomy cabin, operating flexibility, and the availability of well-known upgrades such as Collins Pro Line II, while maintenance and parts considerations follow CF34 engine support and airframe-age-related structural and system inspections.
