N343QS

This airframe, registered as N343QS, is an Embraer-built Embraer EMB-505 Phenom 300 manufactured by Embraer S.A. in 2014 with serial number 50500194. It is owned by NetJets Sales Inc, a corporation associated with Oklahoma City / Columbus operations (NetJets), and is registered in the US. Operational history reflects standard fractional/managed-operator use under NetJets ownership, and the airframe is valued at $7,500,000 indicative of its configuration and market standing for a mid‑2010s Phenom 300.

The cabin of N343QS follows a typical NetJets 7‑place executive layout with a forward refreshment area, a mid 4‑place club, and aft seating arranged as two forward‑facing seats or an alternate belted lavatory option. Avionics fitment on this early‑build Phenom 300 airframe conforms to the Embraer Prodigy suite, which is Garmin‑based and reflects the G3000/G3X family legacy present before later Prodigy Touch/G3000 enhancements introduced on the Phenom 300E. Typical missions for this aircraft under NetJets operation include short to mid‑range business travel profiles within the US and continental routes up to its maximum ferry range, leveraging its high cruise speed and 45,000 ft service ceiling for efficient point‑to‑point operations. Maintenance and operational considerations align with fractional operator practices and the PW535E engine maintenance schedule.

The Embraer EMB‑505 Phenom 300 occupies the light jet performance niche, offering high cruise speed and transcontinental short‑range capability relative to entry‑level light jets. Competing models in the same segment include various Cessna Citation and Learjet variants, with buyer and charter demand often driven by cabin layout, speed, and operator reputation. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2014 Phenom 300 like N343QS typically reflect airframe hours, engine cycles on PW535E engines, and the value premium associated with NetJets‑configured interiors and records.
