N357FX

This entry covers airframe N357FX, an Embraer EMB-505 Phenom 300 built in 2014 with serial number 50500156. The aircraft is manufactured by Embraer Executive Aircraft Inc and is registered in the US; it is owned and operated by FLEXJET LLC (an LLC based in Cleveland, OH, US). The airframe appears within the FLEXJET fleet and carries the operator’s home base association in Cleveland, Ohio. Valuation records list the airframe at approximately $8,000,000, reflecting typical market positioning for a late-model Phenom 300 in executive charter or fractional operations.

The cabin of N357FX conforms to the EMB-505 Phenom 300 standard with a typical 7–8 passenger executive layout, a forward galley and a belted lavatory, supporting short to mid-range business missions and on-demand charter work. Avionics fit for this airframe follows the EMB-505 standard with Embraer Prodigy / Garmin G3000, enabling advanced situational awareness, synthetic vision, and integrated flight management suitable for high-utilization operations. Operated by FLEXJET LLC from its Cleveland association, the aircraft is well-suited for domestic U.S. point-to-point missions, regional shuttle services and fractional sharing itineraries; maintenance considerations align with Pratt & Whitney PW535E program requirements and Embraer service intervals common to fractional/charter operators.

The Embraer EMB-505 Phenom 300 family occupies the light to super-light business jet niche, prized for high cruise speed and favorable runway performance relative to peers. With a cruise around 453 kts and a practical range of 2,010 nm, the model competes with light-cabin types from Cessna and Bombardier for charter and fractional buyers. For operators like FLEXJET LLC, considerations include aftermarket support for the PW535E engines, avionics commonality of the Garrett/Embraer Prodigy–Garmin suite, and resale valuation dynamics tied to airframe year 2014 and the listed $8,000,000 market value.
