N159M

This entry concerns the Embraer EMB-550 Legacy 500 airframe bearing tail number N159M, built in 2020 with serial number 55020138. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by MI TRANSPORT (EMB550) LLC, an LLC based in BROWNSVILLE, WI, US, which serves as the operator/home base for this example. The airframe carries an owner-customized configuration potential and a contemporary avionics fit; its assessed market value at the time of record is $15,495,000. No public record of notable regulatory actions or transfers beyond the listed LLC ownership is provided in the supplied data.

The airframe is outfitted in a typical nine-to-twelve place executive layout, described as a Typical 9–12 place executive layout (club seating, forward galley, enclosed lavatory); owner-customized interior possible, supporting executive transport, regional business travel, and on-demand charter missions consistent with the Legacy 500 program. Avionics are specified as the Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion suite, providing integrated flight management, displays and automated systems suited to single-pilot or two-pilot operations depending on operator standardization. With substantial transcontinental range and a high cruise speed, the aircraft is well suited to point-to-point missions in the 1,000–3,000 nm band, while the enclosed lavatory and forward galley reflect a cabin set up optimized for executive comfort. Maintenance and interior refurbishment considerations are owner-dependent given the stated possibility for owner-customized interiors.

The airframe is an example of the Embraer EMB-550 Legacy 500 family, positioned in the midsize/crossover business jet market with a blend of range, speed and cabin comfort as reflected by the 3,125 nm range and 467 kt cruise. Competitors in the segment typically include other midsize executive jets offering similar transcontinental capability; buyer and charter demand for this model generally focuses on operators seeking a modern avionics fit like Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion combined with a flexible cabin plan. From a resale and maintenance perspective, the specific value of $15,495,000 for this 2020 airframe factors its relatively recent build year, engine type (HTF7500E), and potential for interior customization by the owner.
