N316BL

This entry covers Embraer airframe N316BL, a 2010-built Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 with manufacturer serial 50000185. The aircraft was produced by Embraer S.A. and carries a United States registration; its current registered owner is KUHL LLC, a corporation based in Dover, DE, US. The airframe is recorded with standard light-jet configuration and is valued at $2,150,000, reflecting market positioning for early-model Phenom 100s with this equipment fit. There are no additional published registry actions or operator changes beyond the noted corporate ownership on public record.

The cabin of N316BL is fitted in a forward four-place club arrangement with an aft belted lavatory, supporting a typical executive layout of four to six passengers for short-haul business missions. Avionics are provided by the Embraer Prodigy Flight Deck, part of the Garmin-based Prodigy/G3000 family as installed in this production batch or through subsequent upgrades. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include regional point-to-point business travel within the aircraft’s 1,178 nm range and high-speed cruise capability of 390 kts, enabling efficient hops between inland and coastal business centers. As an owner-operated corporate-registered airframe, maintenance considerations follow standard Phenom 100 schedules and Pratt & Whitney Canada engine support arrangements.

The Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 family occupies the entry-level light-jet niche, offering a combination of relatively high cruise speed and a 41,000 ft service ceiling for flexibility in short to mid-range corporate missions. Competitors in this segment typically include other light jets with similar seating and range, and resale or maintenance value is driven by avionics fit, engine hours, and overall cabin configuration. For a 2010 airframe such as N316BL, the Embraer Prodigy Flight Deck fit and corporate ownership profile can support steady buyer and charter interest, while the documented Pratt & Whitney Canada PW617F-E engines and modest valuation inform expected maintenance and resale considerations.
