Model & Market Context
This article covers the specific airframe bearing tail number N230EC, a light business jet built in 2003 with serial RB-59 by Raytheon Aircraft Company. The airframe is a Raytheon / Hawker Beechcraft 390 Premier IA (Premier 1A) operated in the U.S. and registered US, and it is owned by EG AVIATION LLC of Canton, OH, US. The record reflects that the aircraft is used in a corporate/executive role from its operator base; no additional notable registry actions or incidents are published for this airframe. Published valuation or condition highlights are not provided.
The cabin of this specific Premier IA is fitted in a typical executive configuration for six to eight passengers with a forward galley and the option of belted lavatory seating; documentation for this airframe lists a Typical 6–8 passenger executive layout (forward galley, belted lavatory seating option). Operationally the aircraft’s performance—short-to-medium range with a high single‑engine cruise speed for its class—supports point-to-point corporate missions and light charter work from the owner/operator base in Canton, OH, US. Avionics fit for this airframe are not specified in the provided data; maintenance considerations relevant to this example follow the two Williams FJ44-2A powerplants’ common inspection and lifecycle practices typical of the model series.
The airframe belongs to the Premier 1A family, a light jet segment positioned to offer higher cruise speeds and a composite cabin shell relative to contemporaries. With a range of 1,350 nm, cruise of 369 kts, and seating for 8, the type competes for owner-operators seeking fast regional connectivity against models in the light business jet category. Maintenance and resale considerations for this specific airframe align with model‑class norms: twin FJ44 engines with established support networks, and market interest driven by cabin utility and single‑crew operational capability.
