N962SW

This airframe, registered in the United States as N962SW, is a Bombardier CRJ-200ER (CL-600-2B19) built in 2003 with manufacturer serial number 7859 by Bombardier Inc.. The aircraft is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC of St. George, UT, US and is operated in the fixed-wing multi-engine regional category with US registration. As a 55-seat regional jet, N962SW has been maintained within the type’s typical commercial regional service environment, and its operational identity is closely tied to its corporate owner and operator base.

The cabin of N962SW is configured for 55 passenger seats in the standard CRJ-200ER regional layout, optimized for short- to medium-haul sectors. Operated by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC from its base in St. George, UT, the aircraft typically serves point-to-point regional routes within a maximum mission radius consistent with its 1,345 nm range and cruise speed of 424 kts. Avionics and systems installations on this airframe conform to the CRJ-200ER type certification and the fleet standards maintained by its corporate operator, with maintenance and inspections performed to commercial operator requirements. Cabin amenities and interior specifics reflect common regional-jet fittings for the CRJ-200ER fleet rather than bespoke VIP modifications.

The Bombardier CRJ-200ER sits in the regional jet niche as a short-haul, 50–seat class airliner derived from the CL-600 family, offering efficient operations on thin trunk and regional routes. Powered by twin General Electric CF34-3B1 engines rated at 9,140 lbf each, it provides a cruise of 424 kts and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, aligning with operator needs for frequent, high-cycle regional utilization. Competing models historically include other 50-seat regional types; market demand has centered on regional carriers and scope-clause fleet planning. For corporate fleet managers and potential secondary-market buyers, considerations include airframe age (this example built in 2003), engine program status, and maintenance history associated with its commercial operator.
