N1955J

This airframe, registered as N1955J, is an Embraer EMB-135BJ Legacy 650 built in 2014 with manufacturer serial number 14501194. The aircraft is owned by 1955 AVIATION LLC (an LLC based in Belleair, FL, US) and is registered in the US; operator listings and registry history indicate its operational base and ownership have been associated with Belleair since acquisition. Notable registry actions include its 2014 manufacture and subsequent U.S. registration under the listed LLC. Valuation and condition highlights reflect a mid‑life executive transport with an estimated market value of $29,500,000, consistent with VIP‑configured Legacy 650 examples.

The airframe retains a VIP executive cabin configuration listed as a full executive layout, though operator and charter entries indicate an approximate 13‑passenger executive fit for typical missions; the manufacturer seating capacity is 37. Avionics commonly fitted on Legacy 650s and noted for this airframe include the Honeywell Primus Elite suite, supporting modern navigation, communications and situational awareness for long‑range business missions. Typical operations for this airframe focus on transcontinental and intercontinental executive transport, leveraging the 3,900 nm range and high cruise speed for non‑stop routings between major business hubs. Maintenance considerations mirror the Legacy 650 fleet standard: twin AE 3007A powerplants and mid‑life airframe checks, with ongoing operator management by 1955 AVIATION LLC reflecting corporate stewardship and centralized basing in Belleair, Florida.

The Embraer EMB-135BJ Legacy 650 occupies a niche as a long‑range, large‑cabin business jet derived from regional jet lineage, offering higher speed and range than many light and mid‑size competitors while providing cabin amenities comparable to large cabin types. Key competitors in mission profile include larger mid‑ to heavy‑cabin business jets; buyer and charter demand favors Legacy 650s for cost‑effective transcontinental range and spacious VIP layouts. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include common factors: engine life status of the Rolls‑Royce AE 3007A pair, avionics modernization with Honeywell Primus Elite, and market valuation around $29,500,000 reflecting its 2014 build and executive configuration.
