Model & Market Context
This entry covers a single airframe, production serial 7970, a Bombardier CRJ-200LR built in 2004 and registered in the United States as N8970D. The aircraft is owned by GOLD COAST AVIATION, a corporation based in Fort Lauderdale, FL, US, which represents the known ownership and operator/home base association for this airframe. There are no other published registry actions or ownership transfers for this tail in the provided data, and the airframe is presented in the condition and configuration typical of a common CRJ-200 fit with no separate valuation disclosed.
The airframe is configured with a 50-seat single-class cabin in a 2-2 abreast regional layout consistent with its certification as a fixed-wing multi-engine regional jet. Avionics are a standard Collins Pro Line 4 installation as found on the common CRJ-200 fit, supporting regional airline and charter operational requirements. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft, given its 1,700 nm range and 424 kts cruise, include short- to medium-range regional services and corporate/charter work originating from its operator base in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Maintenance considerations align with the CRJ-200 family’s two CF34-3B1 turbofan engines and established regional operator support networks for that engine and avionics package.
As a Bombardier CRJ-200LR (CL-600-2B19) airframe, serial 7970 occupies the 50-seat regional jet niche within Bombardier’s CRJ family, optimized for regional sectors where speed and frequency are prioritized over larger capacity. The combination of two CF34-3B1 engines, a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, and the Collins Pro Line 4 avionics suite reflects a configuration designed for reliable, high-utilization regional operations. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe are informed by its 2004 build year and common system fit, which support continuity of parts and technical support typical for the CRJ-200 platform.
