RADAR ESTIMATE

What N1998C is worth, and where it’s heading.

Radar's value model doesn't cover the Bombardier Challenger 3500 on its own yet, so this borrows the Bombardier Challenger 350 curve, scales it to N1998C's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N1998C

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

This airframe, registered as N1998C, is a 2024-built Bombardier Challenger 3500 (BD-100-1A10) with manufacturer serial number 20996 produced by Bombardier Inc.. The airframe is registered in the United States and is registered to Clyde Companies Inc, a corporation based in Orem, UT, US, reflecting corporate ownership and likely operation from that company's regional base. No other registry actions or prior owners are noted in the supplied data.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin for this airframe is fitted in a typical eight-passenger executive club layout with a forward galley and aft lavatory; optional 10-passenger layouts are available as an alternate configuration. The flight deck is described as an advanced baseline installation including autothrottle, dual FMS, synthetic vision and MultiScan weather radar, with optional HUD/EVS capability and HUD/EVS-capable installations noted for enhanced situational awareness. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include transcontinental and long-range business missions enabled by a 3,400 nm range and a high cruise of 459 kts, operated from the owner’s U.S. base. Maintenance considerations reflect standard Challenger 3500 program requirements for HTF7350-series engines and avionics software/mission equipment upgrades.

Model & Market Context

The Bombardier Challenger 3500 (BD-100-1A10) occupies the super-midsize business jet niche, offering long-range, high-speed transport with a 45,000 ft service ceiling and modern avionics suite. Competing models in this performance and capacity class include other super-midsize types from manufacturers targeting transcontinental corporate and charter markets. Buyer and charter demand typically favor aircraft with new-generation cabin systems and advanced safety sensors; resale considerations for this specific airframe should reflect its 2024 build, factory options and corporate single-owner provenance. Maintenance and lifecycle costs are influenced by HTF7350-series engine support and Bombardier OEM program commitments.
