Model & Market Context

This entry documents the specific airframe registered as N9191, a Canadair-built Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604 completed in 1996 with manufacturer serial number 5312. The airframe is recorded as owned by Tenax Aerospace LLC, an LLC based in Ridgeland, MS, US, and is entered on the US civil register. No other public ownership transfers, notable incidents, or exceptional registry actions are published for this serial in the supplied data. Condition and valuation details are not published in the provided dataset; maintenance history and ferry or operational records are therefore not summarized here beyond the type-standard features and operator base information.

The certified cabin for this airframe is listed as 22 seats on the type certificate, while typical executive configurations fitted to the model—and likely applied in practice to this operator—range from 9–12 passengers arranged in two cabin zones with a forward galley and an aft baggage compartment. Avionics installations reported on the type commonly fall within the Rockwell Collins Pro Line / ProLine IV family; the supplied data indicates typical Rockwell Collins Pro Line equipment for this airframe. Operationally the Challenger 604 platform is used for long-range executive transport and charter missions consistent with its 4,000 nm range and cruise speed of 459 kts, with the home-base operator profile implied by the owner’s Ridgeland, Mississippi location. Maintenance considerations for this unit would align with twin CF34 series turbofan upkeep and the Challenger 604 fleet’s established maintenance inspection intervals.

The Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604 occupies a mid-to-large-cabin business jet niche emphasizing transcontinental and intercontinental range with comfortable cabin volume. Its twin GE CF-34-1A powerplants and 41,000 ft ceiling support higher-speed, higher-altitude cruise profiles attractive to corporate flight departments and charter operators seeking 4,000 nm capability. Competing types in the same market segment typically include other large-cabin, long-range business jets; buyers and charter operators evaluate 604s on airframe hours, engine cycles, avionics fit (notably Pro Line family upgrades), and the cost of scheduled heavy maintenance events when considering acquisition or resale.
