N117TP

This article covers airframe N117TP, a 2005-built Bombardier business jet, serial number 9175, manufactured by Bombardier Inc.. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is registered to Z MAGIC CARPET LLC, an LLC based in Peachtree City, GA, US, which appears as the current owner/operator on registry records. The airframe is listed with a market valuation of $15,000,000 and carries US registration markings; registry entries also note certification for an interior up to 23 seats despite typical executive fitments. No further publicized history of ownership transfers or major registry actions beyond the current LLC registration is provided in the supplied data.

The airframe is a Bombardier BD-700-1A10 Global Express XRS configured with an executive-style cabin layout in practice, typically accommodating 8–13 passengers, while registry certification is recorded for up to 23 seats for alternate configurations. Avionics fit for the type on this example is listed as Honeywell Primus 2000 / Primus 2000XP, with Primus Elite software/upgrade pathways commonly installed on XRS examples in service. Operational missions for this airframe type and configuration generally include long-range executive transport and transcontinental or intercontinental point-to-point flights consistent with its 6,150 nm range and high-altitude cruise capabilities up to 51,000 ft. As an LLC-operated aircraft based in Peachtree City, GA, US, maintenance and basing logistics would typically be arranged through regional maintenance providers familiar with Rolls-Royce BR700-series engines and Global Express systems.

The airframe belongs to the BD-700 Global Express family, the manufacturer model designated Bombardier BD-700-1A10 Global Express XRS, a long-range business jet niche focused on transoceanic executive transport with high cruise speeds and long endurance. Competing models in its performance bracket include other large-cabin long-range business jets; buyer and charter demand for such airframes is driven by range, cabin comfort and avionics maturity. Maintenance and resale considerations for this specific airframe include the BR700-710A220 engine program status and common avionics upgrade paths such as Primus Elite, factors that influence lifecycle costs and marketability at the indicated $15,000,000 valuation.
