N993TB

This entry concerns airframe N993TB, a 2011-built Bombardier BD-100-1A10 (Challenger 300) with manufacturer serial number 20312. The airframe was completed in 2011 by Bombardier Inc. and is registered in the United States (US). Ownership is recorded to Adams Steel of Nevada, Inc. (a corporation based in Fort Lauderdale, FL, US), and the registry reflects corporate operation rather than individual ownership. The aircraft carries an estimated market value of $14,950,000 and is documented as a fixed-wing multi-engine executive transport.

The cabin of N993TB follows a typical executive executive layout described as an 8–9 place configuration featuring double-club seating, a forward galley and an enclosed lavatory, with the specific fit noted as an eight-seat arrangement for this airframe. Avionics on this airframe are installed as Collins Pro Line 21 with an airframe-specific fit of Collins TCAS 4000, supporting modern navigation, surveillance and traffic awareness functions. Operating missions for this configuration are consistent with long-range business transport and corporate travel; the combination of the forward galley, enclosed lavatory and double-club seating supports transcontinental or intercontinental executive missions within the published 3,100 nm range. Maintenance considerations reflect corporate ownership and the avionics/engine fit typical to Challenger 300-series maintenance programs.

The Bombardier BD-100-1A10 (Challenger 300) occupies the midsize super-midsize business jet niche, offering ferry and mission performance aligned with a 459 kts cruise and 45,000 ft service ceiling. Competing models in this class are selected by buyers and charter operators seeking a balance of cabin comfort for 8 passengers with transcontinental range; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe include the HTF7000-series engine support and Pro Line 21 avionics commonality, factors that influence demand and lifecycle costs for corporate-owned units like N993TB.
