N16541

This entry describes airframe N16541, an Embraer-built regional jet configured as an Embraer EMB-145LR with manufacturer listed as Embraer S.A.. The airframe was completed in 2001 with serial number 145542 and is recorded in the U.S. registry. Current owner: Delux Public Charter LLC (an LLC based in Dallas, TX, US). No notable registry actions published. The aircraft's market valuation is recorded at $3,000,000 and it is operated from the owner's Dallas, Texas location.

The cabin of N16541 is arranged in a high-density single-class commuter layout consistent with the ERJ-145 family, typically accommodating 50–55 passengers with 1–2 abreast seating; the specific installation for this airframe lists 55 seats. Avionics fit for the type is the Honeywell Primus 1000, which is typical for the ERJ-145 family and supports regional route operations and single-pilot dispatch protocols where applicable. With a range of 1,550 nm and cruise speed of 447 kts, the aircraft is optimized for short to medium regional hops and high-frequency commuter missions operated from its Dallas base. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow the ERJ-145 family practices, including support for the Rolls-Royce AE 3007A1P powerplants.

The Embraer EMB-145LR variant occupies the regional regional jet niche for high-density commuter and charter operations, offering a balance of seating up to 55 passengers and trans-regional range (1,550 nm). Competing models in its mission class include other 50-seat regional jets and modern turbofan commuter aircraft; buyers and charter operators often prioritize fleet commonality, engine support for the AE 3007A1P, and avionics such as the Honeywell Primus 1000. Given the recorded market value of $3,000,000, resale and maintenance economics for this 2001-build airframe will hinge on engine cycles, avionics condition, and completion of line and heavy maintenance in accordance with type-specific schedules.
