N201XJ1997 Bombardier CRJ-200ER

Overview

This airframe, registered as N201XJ, is a 1997-built Bombardier CRJ-200ER (Canadair CL-600-2B19) with manufacturer serial number 7187. The aircraft is recorded as owned by Bank of Utah Trustee (a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, UT, US), reflecting a trustee-held ownership rather than an airline operating lease. Notable registry information is limited to its corporate trustee ownership and standard US registration status.

Operations & Cabin

The aircraft is outfitted in a 55-seat high-density shuttle/charter cabin in a single-class configuration intended for short-to-medium regional sectors, consistent with typical CRJ-200ER missions. Avionics are provided by the Collins Pro Line 4 suite, supporting regional airline, charter, and shuttle operational requirements with integrated navigation, communication, and flight management functionality. With two GE CF34-3B1 turbofan engines and a certified ceiling of 41,000 ft, the airframe is optimized for frequent-frequency regional rotations and higher utilization patterns typical of shuttle or charter operators. Maintenance considerations for this specific jetline include standard CRJ-200 airframe and engine shop visit cycles and the administrative oversight implied by trustee ownership.

Model & Market Context

The Bombardier CRJ-200ER (Canadair CL-600-2B19) family occupies the regional jet niche for sub-100-seat operations, offering a balance of speed and runway performance for 300-1,700 nm missions; this example lists a maximum range of 1,700 nm and cruise speeds around 424 kts. Competing types in the regional market historically included Embraer 145-series jets and turboprops on shorter sectors.
