N258EB

This article covers a specific Raytheon Aircraft Company 400A airframe, registered as N258EB and completed in 1996 with serial number RK-129. The airframe was manufactured by Raytheon Aircraft Company and is registered in the United States; it is owned by RAVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Orem, UT, US. The single-owner registry reflects a relatively stable custodial history for this particular airframe, and contemporary valuation records place the type value for this example at $1,600,000. Maintenance and operational status are consistent with active fixed-wing multi-engine business jet usage under U.S. registration.

The airframe, a Beechjet 400A variant of the Raytheon 400 series, accommodates up to 10 seats in a light business jet cabin typical of late-1990s corporate fleet interiors. Specific cabin layout and avionics fit for this serial are operator-configured and not further detailed in the supplied data, but mission profiles for this airframe generally include short-to-medium range business transport and charter operations consistent with its 1,693 nm range and 424 kt cruise speed. Based in Orem, Utah, the owner/operator can deploy the jet for regional point-to-point missions, high-altitude cruise to 45,000 ft, and quick city-pair hops typical of owner-flown or contracted charter operation. Ongoing maintenance considerations align with twin JT15D-5 engine support and parts commonality across the 400A fleet.

The Raytheon Aircraft Company 400A (Beechjet 400A) occupies the light business jet niche offering high cruise speed and a regional range for up to ten occupants. In the used market, examples from 1996 such as RK-129 compete with contemporaries offering similar mission capability; buyer demand often hinges on airframe condition, avionics modernization and engine program status. Resale and maintenance economics for this airframe will be influenced by the Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-5 engine lifecycle, and the reported example value of $1,600,000 reflects its standing among mature 400A listings.
