Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N944UP, is a 2014-built Bombardier BD-100-1A10 Challenger 300 with serial number 20451. The aircraft is listed as owned by WHEELS UP PARTNERS LLC, an LLC based in New York, NY, US, and operates on a United States registration. The Challenger 300 airframe reflects a mid-2010s build and is presented with a market valuation of $11,000,000, indicating a mature example within its fleet class. Registered under a large membership charter operator, this airframe is part of a fleet deployment model rather than private long-term owner operation.
The cabin of this specific Challenger 300 is fitted in a double-club eight-place executive configuration, consistent with a typical Challenger 300 layout and optimized for small-group executive transport. Operated under the ownership of WHEELS UP PARTNERS LLC, the mission profile for this airframe is most commonly short- to medium-haul membership charter flights, offering transcontinental capability within its 3,100 nm range and high-speed cruise of 459 kts. Avionics fitment specifics are not published for this serial, but operational considerations for a 2014 Challenger 300 include routine heavy-check schedules typical of the type and managed by fleet-level maintenance programs. Cabin amenities follow the manufacturer’s executive standards for the model, with emphasis on business-class seating and in-flight comfort for up to eight passengers.
The Bombardier BD-100-1A10 Challenger 300 occupies the light-large business jet niche, balancing transcontinental range with relatively high cruise speed and a 45,000 ft service ceiling. Competing models in market segments include later super-mid variants and updated light jets offering similar mission profiles; buyer and charter demand for 2014-model examples is driven by fleet operators seeking cost-effective, proven platforms. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its 2014 vintage, specific serial 20451, and operator-managed maintenance, with valuation at $11,000,000 informing market position and lifecycle cost planning.
