N904EV

The airframe bearing tail number N904EV is a Bombardier CL-600-2B19 (CRJ-200ER) built in 2002 with manufacturer's serial number 7628. The airframe is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and has been operated in the US civil registry. Registration and operator records indicate corporate ownership by SkyWest Airlines in St George, Utah, without publicized changes to that status. As a late-model CRJ-200ER in airline service, the airframe carried a reported market valuation of $3,000,000, reflecting its configuration, age, and operator type.

The aircraft is outfitted in a high-density regional layout and is reported with 55 seats in a single-class coach configuration, consistent with short-haul regional carrier operations. Typical operator avionics fit for CRJ-200 airframes is the Collins Pro Line 4, which supports the navigation, communication, and flight management capabilities expected for this class and era of regional jet. In service with SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, the airframe would be tasked with frequent short-to-medium sector rotations typical of regional airline networks, emphasizing high utilization and rapid turnarounds. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe are governed by its twin GE CF34-3B1 engines and the established component shop visit and overhaul cycles for CF34-series powerplants and CRJ-type airframes.

The Bombardier CL-600-2B19 (CRJ-200ER) occupies the regional jet performance niche for 50–60 seat short-haul routes, offering moderate cruise speed and high utilization for regional carriers. Competing models in the same mission space historically include earlier Embraer regional jets and turboprops on thinner routes, though the CRJ-200ER is distinguished by its jet performance and higher cruise speed. Buyer and secondary-market demand for a 2002-built, single-class 55-seat CRJ-200ER is sensitive to airframe age, maintenance status, and engine life; the reported valuation of $3,000,000 for this airframe reflects those resale and overhaul considerations.
