N228GS

This entry covers airframe N228GS, an Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 built in 2010 with serial number 50000112. The aircraft is owned by CAPITAL HOLDINGS 243 LLC, an LLC based in Brownsville, TX, US, and carries United States registration. The single documented ownership indicates a corporate ownership model; no public record of prior owners or significant registry actions is published. Condition and market valuation are not published for this specific airframe.

Airframe N228GS is equipped in an executive configuration with an Executive 4–6 place layout that includes club seating plus a belted lavatory seat, supporting mixed short- to mid-range corporate missions and ad hoc charter use within the limits of its private operator. The flight deck is fitted with the Embraer Prodigy Touch avionics suite (Garmin-based), providing a modern integrated flight deck common to later Phenom 100s and supporting single-pilot or two-pilot operations depending on operator procedures. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include regional point-to-point trips within a few hours’ flight time given the 1,178 nm range and cruise speed of 333 kts; the high-service ceiling of 41,000 ft aids efficient, traffic-avoiding routings. Maintenance considerations follow Embraer and Pratt & Whitney Canada schedules for the EMB-500 series and PW617F-E engines; specific maintenance status for N228GS is not published.

The Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 occupies the light business jet niche, offering a combination of compact executive cabin, modern avionics, and efficient twin-engine performance. As configured on N228GS, the Phenom 100 competes with light jets such as the Cessna Citation Mustang series and similar entry-level business jets for owner-operators and charter operators seeking short-to-medium haul capability. Buyer and charter demand tends to favor clean maintenance records and updated avionics—attributes evidenced broadly by Prodigy Touch–equipped airframes—while resale value and maintenance cost considerations hinge on engine cycles, avionics upgrades, and documented corporate utilization; specific resale metrics for N228GS are not published.
