N856PP

This entry documents airframe N856PP, a Bombardier Challenger 604 (CL-600-2B16) built in 2001 with manufacturer serial number 5483. The aircraft is recorded as owned by PRINTPACK EQUIPMENT LLC (a corporate owner) and carries a United States registration; the registry lists a 22-seat configuration while common operator layouts seat 9–12 passengers. Notable registry data for this airframe include its corporate ownership and a reported market valuation of $6,008,333, which reflects its mid-life status within the late-model Challenger 600 series. The airframe is a fixed-wing, multi-engine business jet platform configured for executive transport and corporate missions.

The cabin for N856PP is reported as a typical executive layout; the registry lists 22 seats but notes configurations may include multiple belted lavatory or jump seats, and common operator interiors for this model often seat between 9 and 12 passengers for executive comfort. Avionics fit is typical for the type, with a Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4 suite installed on CL-600-2B16 models, supporting advanced flight management, navigation, and surveillance capabilities. Operational use for this airframe is consistent with corporate transport, long-range business trips, and executive ferry missions, leveraging the Challenger 604’s transcontinental range and high cruise speed. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with CF34 turbofan lifecycle management and mid-life refurbishment cycles for interior and systems.

The Challenger 604 family occupies the super-midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental range and robust payload capability relative to light jets. Competing models include later-generation Bombardier and Gulfstream variants and long-range offerings from Dassault and Embraer; buyers often weigh cabin size and operating economics against newer avionics and engine technologies. Resale and maintenance considerations for N856PP center on CF34 engine status, logbook completeness, and interior configuration choices that affect charter suitability and secondary-market demand for a 2001-build Challenger 604.
