N316AT

This entry covers airframe N316AT, a 2006-built Beechjet 400A (marketed as the Hawker 400XP) with serial number RK-459. The aircraft is recorded as owned by BANK OF UTAH OWNER TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and is registered in the US; this ownership is the primary documented title history for the airframe. Valuation and condition notes list the airframe value at $1,500,000, and the configuration and equipment fit described in listings for RK-459 indicate typical retrofit avionics and a center-club executive cabin with a belted lavatory/seating option. No other ownership transfers or notable registry actions are published beyond the trustee ownership and U.S. registration.

The cabin of N316AT is laid out in a center-club executive configuration commonly accommodating 7–8 passengers with provision for a belted lavatory/seating option; the fit also includes a refreshment center and limited baggage volume as described for this airframe. Avionics fitted to this specific RK-459 listing show a typical retrofit of Collins Pro Line equipment with dual FMS (AMS-5000/FMS-5000), GPS-4000-series units and Collins weather radar, supporting precision routing and modern navigation. Operationally, the aircraft’s range and cruise performance support short- to mid-range executive missions and charter or corporate shuttle duties from its documented base in Salt Lake City, UT. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect standard mid-size bizjet practices, with attention to engine time on the Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-5 powerplants and avionics lifecycle for the Collins Pro Line retrofit.

The Beechjet 400A/Hawker 400XP family occupies the light-to-mid-size business jet niche, offering relatively high cruise speed and 45,000 ft ceiling capability compared to many light jets. Competing models in this performance band typically emphasize speed, short-field performance and efficient regional mission economics—attributes reflected by the 450 kts cruise and 1,519 nm range of N316AT. Buyer and charter demand for 400-series airframes often focuses on airframes with upgraded avionics and well-documented maintenance; resale considerations for this RK-459 example are influenced by its Collins Pro Line dual-FMS fit, belted lavatory option, and recorded valuation of $1,500,000. Maintenance and resale timing will hinge on engine and airframe hours, logbook completeness, and the condition of the interior and limited baggage accommodation.
