N8971A

This airframe, registered as N8971A, is a 2004-build regional jet identified as a Bombardier CRJ200 (CL-600-2B19) with manufacturer's serial number 7971. The aircraft is owned by AM PM SERVICES LLC - ADVENTURE SERIES, an LLC based in Northbrook, IL, US, and is recorded on the US civil register. The two-engine CRJ200 airframe has been maintained in a single-class regional configuration and, according to registry data provided, shows typical mid-life attributes for a 2004 regional jet of its type. No additional notable transfers or unusual registry actions are recorded in the supplied dataset beyond its current ownership.

The cabin of this airframe conforms to an airline regional single-aisle layout configured for 50–55 seats in a single-class regional configuration, and the specific fit for 55 seats positions it at the higher end of the CRJ200 seating envelope. Avionics are outfitted with the Collins Pro Line 4 suite, supporting regional airline operations and typical navigation/communication and flight-management capabilities for the type. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft include short-to-medium stage regional routes within the 1,700 nm range envelope and high-frequency sector rotations that capitalize on the CRJ200’s cruise speed of 424 kts and high-altitude capability to 41,000 ft. Maintenance considerations for this particular airframe align with CF34-3B1 engine upkeep cycles and airframe checks common to 2004-build CRJ200s under LLC ownership models.

The Bombardier CRJ200 (CL-600-2B19) occupies the regional-jet niche for short-haul, high-frequency airline operations and corporate/charter applications seeking 50–55 passenger capacity. Competing models in the same market segment historically include smaller variants of Embraer regional jets and older generation regional turbofans; the CRJ200’s strengths are speed and altitude capability versus light-class competitors. Buyer and charter demand for 2004 CRJ200s tends to emphasize cost of ownership, engine CF34 maintenance history, and avionics standardization — in this case the Collins Pro Line 4 fit — all of which influence resale and continued operational economics for airframes like N8971A.
