These are rough ranges, not appraisals: hours, engines, damage history, equipment and the logbooks move the price of any one aircraft.

    What affects the price of a Challenger 600?

    What moves the price of any one Challenger 600: total time and engine time, engine program enrollment, damage history, avionics and equipment, and complete logbooks.
