Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N117WH, is a 2009-built Hawker Beechcraft 900XP with serial number HA-0140. The aircraft is on the US registry and is listed as owned by NOBELSTAR HOLDINGS LLC, an LLC/corporation based in Flower Mound, TX, US; the public record shows registration and corporate ownership filings under that name without other listed operators. Valuation data for this specific airframe places it at $4,747,500, reflecting market condition and the model year. No additional notable registry actions or multiple ownership transfers are published beyond the current corporate registration.

The cabin of this Hawker Beechcraft 900XP airframe is fitted in a typical 8–9 passenger executive layout, combining club seating with a divan, a forward galley, and an aft belted lavatory; a heated and pressurized baggage compartment of approximately 50 cubic feet is provided. Avionics are the typical series fit of Collins Pro Line 21, supporting advanced navigation, communications and flight management capabilities appropriate to the model. With a long-range cruise capability and a 41,000 ft service ceiling, the aircraft is suited to domestic and transcontinental corporate missions, owner-operator flights, or on-demand charter operations originating from its home base in Flower Mound, Texas. Maintenance considerations for this specific ship follow the 900XP common schedules, with emphasis on hot-section inspections for the Honeywell TFE731-50R engines and avionics updates to maintain Pro Line 21 capability.

The Hawker Beechcraft 900XP family occupies the midsize corporate jet niche, offering higher speed and transcontinental range compared with light jets, while remaining more economical than larger cabin-class types. Typical competitors include late-model midsize offerings from Bombardier and Gulfstream derivatives in the same mission bracket. Buyer and charter demand for 2009 900XP airframes often focuses on overall condition, engine TBO status, and avionics currency; the listed valuation of $4,747,500 for this airframe reflects those resale and maintenance considerations.
