N228CG

The airframe bearing tail number N228CG is an Embraer-built light jet, identified as the Embraer Phenom 100EV (EMB-500), factory-built in 2022 with serial number 50000436. This specific airframe is owned by FREELAND AIR LLC, an LLC based in Columbus, OH, US; it is registered in the United States and the current owner/operator record indicates corporate ownership rather than individual. Notable registry actions are limited to the current US registration and corporate ownership; the aircraft’s recent build year and reported valuation suggest a relatively young, well-maintained example in the fleet market. Valuation data lists the aircraft at $5,500,000, reflecting contemporary market positioning and condition expectations for a 2022 Phenom 100EV.

The cabin of this Phenom 100EV is fitted in the typical executive layout, accommodating a 4–6 place club seating arrangement with a belted lavatory and a small galley, and provides roughly ~70 cu ft of baggage capacity; seating is documented as 6. Avionics are equipped with the Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, supporting single-pilot operations and modern situational awareness. Operated from a Columbus, Ohio corporate base under FREELAND AIR LLC, the aircraft’s performance—cruise at 405 kts and a ferry/mission range of 1,178 nm—suits short- to mid-range business missions, air taxi or corporate shuttle roles, where quick point-to-point travel and airport accessibility are priorities. Maintenance considerations for this airframe are consistent with a twin PW617F1-E installation and modern Garmin avionics, implying standard factory-supported schedules for a 2022-built model.

The Embraer Phenom 100EV (EMB-500) occupies a light, fixed-wing multi-engine executive niche characterized by relatively high cruise speeds and modest range for regional missions. With twin PW617F1-E engines and a 41,000 ft ceiling, the type appeals to buyers seeking compact executive transport with advanced avionics like the Garmin G3000. The documented valuation of $5,500,000, combined with a 2022 build date, generally supports favorable resale and charter demand for a late-model airframe; operators will weigh engine-cycle management and avionics lifecycle upgrades as primary maintenance and long-term ownership considerations.
