N257JX

This airframe, registered as N257JX, is an Embraer ERJ-135LR built in 2000 with manufacturer's serial number 145314. The airframe is registered in the United States and is currently owned by DELUX PUBLIC CHARTER LLC, a corporation based in Dallas, TX, US. Operated in a commuter/charter configuration, the aircraft carries the certification and typical registry markings associated with US-registered regional jets. Ownership is recorded under a corporate operator in Dallas, Texas, reflecting the aircraft’s use in public charter operations.

The cabin on this specific ERJ-135LR is fitted in a 30-seat single-class commuter layout (JSX/operator configuration), optimized for high-frequency regional or public charter missions rather than long-haul comfort. Avionics are listed as Honeywell Primus 1000 (typical for ERJ-135 series), aligning with standard regional-jet flight-deck capabilities for navigation and communications. With its twin AE 3007A powerplants and a cruise speed of 430 kts, the aircraft is well-suited to short- to medium-range shuttle and charter sectors out of its Dallas, TX operator base, executing multiple daily rotations and point-to-point services. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would focus on common ERJ-135 systems and the AE 3007A engine community support network.

The Embraer ERJ-135LR sits in the regional jet category as a fixed-wing multi-engine commuter aircraft, offering a balance of runway performance, payload for 30 passengers, and efficient twin-engine cruise characteristics up to 37,000 ft. Its 1,750 nm range and 430-knot cruise place it in a niche for regional carriers and public charter operators seeking higher speed than turboprops with lower seat counts than larger regional jets. Buyer and charter demand typically values airframes with documented corporate/charter use and standard avionics fits such as the Honeywell Primus 1000, while resale and maintenance considerations hinge on engine status, component life limits, and operator maintenance provenance.
