N500VJ is a 2013 Bombardier Global 5000, registered to Bank Of Utah Trustee of Salt Lake City, UT. It works in Jet Select's floating charter fleet: on the Part 135 certificate (U5QA), and positioned wherever the next trip starts rather than kept at one airport. In the twelve months to 7 September 2026 it flew 469 legs on 233 days, about 310,269 nautical miles. That is 43% more than the median Bombardier Global 5000 in U.S. charter service (64 airframes tracked), which puts it among the harder-working examples of the type. It touched 115 airports but keeps returning to the same city pairs: 58% of legs repeat a route already flown in the year.
