N285GC

This airframe, N285GC, is an Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 built in 2012 with serial number 50000285. It is recorded in the United States registry and is owned by DELAWARE AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Dover, Delaware; this ownership represents the primary known operator/home base association for the ship. The airframe is listed under US registration and operated from Dover, DE, and its market valuation is recorded at $2,300,000, reflecting its age, equipment fit and standard factory cabin. No additional published registry actions or prior owners are provided in the supplied data.

The aircraft retains Embraer’s standard four-passenger club configuration with a factory four-place cabin and a belted aft lavatory arrangement that can provide an additional belted seat to increase capacity up to 6. Avionics are an integrated Garmin G1000 Prodigy suite featuring three 12.4" displays, dual AHRS, dual ADC and a GFC autopilot, supporting single-pilot IFR operations and modern situational awareness. Typical missions for this Phenom 100 airframe would include short to mid-range business travel and owner/operator shuttle flights within its 1,178 nm range and cruise at 390 kts, operating routinely from its Dover, DE base. Maintenance considerations center on standard Embraer light-jet schedules and the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW617F-E powerplants’ shop visit cycles, with resale influenced by avionics and cabin configuration.

The Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 occupies the entry-level light business jet niche, offering owner-operators a combination of relatively high cruise speed and airport access out to a 41,000 ft ceiling. Competing models in its class include other very light jets and light jets where buyers weigh range (here 1,178 nm) against cabin comfort and avionics sophistication such as the Garmin G1000 Prodigy fit. Secondary-market demand typically favors examples with low cycles, modern avionics and retained factory cabin layouts; resale value for this specific airframe is indicated at $2,300,000, which will be affected by engine life limits, avionics upgrades and overall maintenance history.
