Description
This 2000 Bombardier Challenger 604, S/N 5460, is a well-equipped, upgraded example with 6,314 total hours and 3,510 landings. Both engines are enrolled on GE OnPoint, and the APU is enrolled on MSP Gold. The flight deck has been upgraded to the Collins Pro Line Fusion 3-display suite. It has a dual flight guidance system, CMU-4000 datalink with FANS 1/A and CPDLC, ADS-B Out, TCAS II Change 7.1, Mark V EGPWS, and a 2023 Collins weather radar. Solid-state CVR/FDR, dual HF with SELCAL, SiriusXM weather, and an electronic checklist round out the package. Duncan Aviation applied fresh paint in January 2026: Matterhorn White with Metallic Red and Metallic Blue accent stripes. The 12-passenger interior pairs beige leather seating with high-gloss woodwork, a forward galley, and an aft lav. Standard Aero updated the cabin in 2023 with a recovered divan and baggage panels, new flooring, Airshow 500 moving maps, and 22-inch forward and aft monitors. Starlink Wi-Fi keeps passengers connected. Maintenance is tracked on CAMP, and the 1600/3200/6400-hour inspections were completed in May 2026. RVSM is current through May 2028. The buyer can keep the aircraft on its current management and charter program, with the current crew in place. That allows a seamless transition and the potential for charter revenue to offset ownership costs from day one. Specifications are subject to buyer's verification prior to sale.
