Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered N384TC, is an Eclipse EA500 (Eclipse 500) built in 2007 with manufacturer serial number 000065. The FAA/registry lists the current owner as CHARIOT AIR LLC, an LLC based in Eagle, ID, US; this owner/operator relationship appears as the primary registrant on the certificate. Manufactured by Eclipse Aviation Corp., the jet retains valuation guidance near $1,300,000, reflecting its age, avionics fit and typical market positioning for early-production Eclipse 500s. No other ownership transfers or notable registry liens are published in the supplied data.
The cabin configuration for this specific ship is a pilot plus four main passengers described as 1 + 4 executive seating, with an additional 16 cu.ft baggage capacity, providing a compact executive interior suitable for short to mid-range point-to-point missions. Avionics on many retrofit examples of this type include IS&S Avio IFMS installations; this airframe is noted with IS&S Avio IFMS equipment and commonly operates with systems such as IFMS v2.08 in retrofitted examples. Typical missions for this airframe under CHARIOT AIR LLC would emphasize regional executive transport within the listed 1,125 nm range and cruise performance of 371 kts, with operations constrained by light-piston field or small turbine field infrastructure appropriate to very light jets. Maintenance considerations align with twin-engine turbofan upkeep, including PW610F-A support and avionics software/retrofit lifecycle management.
The Eclipse EA500 occupies the very light jet segment introduced by Eclipse Aviation Corp., offering high cruise speed and an elevated service ceiling for its class—here demonstrated by 371 kts cruise and a 41,000 ft ceiling. Competing models historically include other VLJs and light executive turbofans; buyer and charter demand tends to focus on lower acquisition cost, operating efficiency, and avionics upgrade paths. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe include airframe age (built 2007), engine support for the PW610F-A pair, and the impact of avionics retrofits such as IS&S Avio IFMS on marketability.
