Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N188HA, is a 1997-built Beechjet 400A with manufacturer's serial RK-164. The airframe is recorded as owned by LOUISVILLE AIRCRAFT LEASING LLC of Sellersburg, IN, US, and is held on the US civil register. The aircraft's documented valuation is $1,250,000, reflecting its age and configuration as a mid-sized light business jet. No additional operator history or registry incidents are published beyond the current ownership and US registration.
The cabin of this airframe follows a typical 8-place executive (center-club) layout; aft belted lavatory (common 400A layout), providing a conventional business-jet interior for corporate or charter missions while the documentation supports up to 10 seats in total. Avionics fit and specific equipment lists are not published for this airframe, so mission avionics capabilities should be confirmed with the owner or maintenance records prior to operational planning. Based in Sellersburg, Indiana under its current owner, the aircraft is suited to regional point-to-point business missions within its published 1,519 nm range and the high-speed cruise capability of 443 kt, frequently operating from medium-sized business airports. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe align with typical Beechjet 400A service patterns and the needs associated with a 1997-model aircraft of its hours and cycles; buyers or operators should review logbooks and records for specifics.
The Beechjet 400A occupies the light business jet niche characterized by relatively high cruise speeds and transregional range, with a service ceiling up to 45,000 ft and twin JT15D turbofans producing 2,900 lbf thrust each. Competing models in its class historically include light jets from manufacturers such as Cessna and Embraer; buyer and charter demand typically focuses on cabin configuration, onboard systems, and maintenance history. For a 1997 airframe with a published value of $1,250,000, resale and maintenance considerations hinge on engine status, avionics updates, and structural inspections; prospective purchasers commonly factor such items into market valuation and operational budgeting.
