Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe tail number N23VA, a 2008-built Eclipse EA500 with serial number 000242. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by VICTOR ALPHA LLC, an LLC based in Wellington, FL, US; this ownership represents the primary recorded title for the airframe. No public record of additional owners or notable registry actions is provided beyond the current LLC registration. As of the provided valuation, the airframe is appraised at $1,057,430, reflecting market factors for late-production Eclipse EA500s and the specific configuration of this serial number.
The airframe is outfitted in an executive 5–6 place layout with a compact cabin measuring approximately 12.3 ft in length and 4.7 ft in width, yielding a passenger environment oriented to short to medium business missions. Avionics are of the Avio IFMS / Avio NG-style flight deck typical of EA500 fits, providing integrated flight management and systems monitoring consistent with the model’s original retrofit options. Typical operations for this aircraft profile include regional point-to-point business travel and owner-operated trips from its home base in Wellington, FL, with mission ranges up to 1,125 nm and cruise speeds near 335 kts. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include common EA500 items such as TF-34-series-equivalent jet-fan turbofan upkeep cycles and avionics support for the Avio suite; exact maintenance status or ferry/history is not published.
The Eclipse EA500 occupies the very light jet niche, offering high cruise speeds and transcontinental hops within a compact, cost-conscious airframe. With twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW610F-A engines delivering about 900 lbf each and a certified ceiling of 41,000 ft, it competes with other VLJs and light business jets in mission economics and runway performance. Buyer and charter demand for EA500s tends to favor owner-operators and small charter operators seeking efficient short-haul capability; resale considerations include parts availability, engine time, and Avio avionics support, factors that influence the retained value reflected in the stated $1,057,430 appraisal.
