N788SK

This airframe, operating as N788SK, is a 2009-built Bombardier regional jet of type Bombardier CL-600-2C11 (CRJ-701ER) with manufacturer serial number 10290. The aircraft is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe carries an operator-configured regional passenger layout under SkyWest and is noted as a fixed-wing multi-engine transport; registered in the United States reflects its national registry status.

The cabin of N788SK is configured in an operator (SkyWest) regional passenger layout with a 55-seat single-class configuration, optimized for short- to medium-haul feeder and regional trunk routes. Avionics are fitted with a Rockwell Collins ProLine 4 suite, supporting the operational requirements of scheduled regional airline services. With twin GE CF34-8C5B1 engines and a cruise speed of 447 kts, the aircraft is typically tasked with high-frequency, short-sector operations linking regional markets to larger hubs from its operator’s base region. Maintenance planning and line servicing follow regional-airline practices consistent with a fixed-wing multi-engine transport of this type and vintage.

As a member of the CRJ-700 series family, the Bombardier CL-600-2C11 (CRJ-701ER) represented by N788SK occupies a performance niche delivering a 55-seat capacity with an extended-range capability of 1,732 nm and a 41,000 ft service ceiling. The combination of moderate passenger seating, twin CF34 powerplants, and ProLine 4 avionics makes this airframe suitable for regional carriers operating frequent short sectors where speed and climb performance are priorities. For buyers and operators, considerations center on airframe hours, engine shop visits for the GE CF34-8C5B1 powerplants, and fleet commonality with other CRJ variants when evaluating maintenance and resale prospects.
