N273C

This airframe, registered as N273C, is a 2018-built Honda HA-420 (HondaJet) with serial number 42000115, manufactured by Honda Aircraft Company. The airframe is currently owned by MAROON & GOLD LLC, an LLC based in Albuquerque, NM, US, and it appears on the U.S. civil register under that ownership; the registration reflects the operator/home base relationship in Albuquerque. Notable registry details include the 2018 build year and the asset valuation reported at $4,000,000, indicating a mature light business jet condition consistent with mid-life airframes of this model.

The cabin on this specific HA‑420 is configured for executive club seating, typically accommodating 4–6 passengers with operator-specific layouts and the possibility of an optional belted lavatory seat for a 7th passenger; overall certified seating capacity is 8. Avionics are fitted with the Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, supporting modern flight management, synthetic vision, and touchscreen controls suited to single-pilot or two‑pilot operations. Typical missions for this airframe profile include point‑to‑point regional business travel within the aircraft’s 1,437 nm range and high‑cruise operations at around 422 kts and up to 43,000 ft, often operating from corporate or regional airports in and around its base in Albuquerque. Maintenance considerations reflect the twin GE Honda HF-120 turbofan configuration, with overhaul and parts support routes tied to OEM and authorized service facilities.

The Honda HA‑420 HondaJet occupies the light business jet niche with a focus on fuel efficiency, high cruise speed, and composite/unique over‑the‑wing engine mount design that improves cabin volume. Performance figures such as 422 kts cruise and a 1,437 nm range position it against competitors in the entry‑to‑light jet market, where buyers and charter operators prioritize operating economics and modern avionics like the Garmin G3000. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe centre on engine life‑cycle management for the GE Honda HF‑120 engines, airframe market demand for late‑model 2010s HondaJets, and the aircraft’s documented valuation of $4,000,000.
