RESEARCH NOTES
About N17217
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This airframe, registered as N17217, is a 1998-built Bombardier CRJ-200 (CL-600-2B19) with manufacturer serial number 7217. The certificate of registration lists the owner as Wells Fargo Trust Co NA Trustee, a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, reflecting its status as a trust-held asset rather than an owner-operator. The aircraft is entered on the U.S. register and has been operated in a 50-passenger regional configuration; no public record of operator change or major registry action beyond trust ownership is published. Condition notes and valuation figures are not published for this specific airframe.
Operations & Cabin
The cabin of this airframe is configured in a 50-seat single-class regional layout, intended for short- to medium-haul scheduled or charter regional operations. Its operational profile, consistent with the installed specifications, supports higher-frequency regional sectors where 50 seats and a cruise speed near 424 kts meet demand for quick turnarounds and multiple daily rotations. As a trust-owned asset based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, the aircraft is typically managed through corporate or leasing arrangements rather than direct airline ownership, and maintenance planning would follow standard regional-jet practices for the Bombardier CRJ-200 family. Specific cockpit avionics fit and interior amenity details for this serial are not published.
Model & Market Context
As a member of the Bombardier CRJ-200 family (CL-600-2B19), N17217 occupies the 50-seat regional jet niche defined by its seating capacity, a 1,700 nm range and a certified ceiling of 41,000 ft. The twin GE CF34-3B1 engines with approximately 9,220 lbf thrust each provide the thrust-to-weight characteristics expected for regional operations. These combined parameters influence buyer and charter demand by aligning the airframe with short- to medium-range regional schedules and secondary markets where 50-seat capacity remains a practical payload/sector solution. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe are governed by its 1998 build year and type-specific operating economics.
