N947SW

The airframe bearing tail number N947SW is a 2003 build Bombardier CRJ-200ER (CL-600-2B19) with manufacturer serial 7786. It is owned by SkyWest Airlines, Inc. with corporate location in St. George, UT, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe is maintained in a 50-seat regional configuration and reflects the common CRJ-200ER specification for that production year.

This specific aircraft is fitted with a 50 single-class economy seating plan in a regional layout, consistent with its role as a short-haul regional transport. The operator information records ownership by SkyWest Airlines, Inc. with its corporate location in St. George, UT, US, and the airframe carries US registration. Maintenance and operational planning for this airframe center on the twin GE CF34 series powerplants, each rated at 8,729 lbf, which are the common installation across CRJ-200 operators and influence scheduled shop visits and spare parts provisioning. The aircraft’s certified service ceiling of 41,000 ft, cruise speed of 424 kts and range of 1,345 nm define its capability envelope for regional point-to-point missions under its current single-class layout.

The airframe is an example of the Bombardier CRJ-200ER (CL-600-2B19) family, a fixed-wing multi-engine regional jet built by Bombardier (Canadair) in 2003, designed for 50-seat regional operations. Powered by the widely used GE CF34 series engines, this model occupies the short-to-medium regional market niche, where considerations such as engine shop visit schedules, parts commonality, and seating configuration directly affect operating economics and resale valuation. The aircraft’s specifications—particularly its 1,345 nm range and 424 kts cruise—place it among established regional turbine jets relied upon by regional carriers.
