Model & Market Context
This entry documents airframe N390GM, a 2006-built business jet registered in the United States as serial RB-172. The aircraft is a Raytheon / Beechcraft 390 Premier I airframe with the registry noting a Premier IA configuration and is owned by the corporate entity BLACK BEAR INVESTMENT HOLDINGS INC based in Naples, FL, US. The airframe’s lineage ties to Raytheon Aircraft Company and the subsequent Beechcraft/Hawker Beechcraft and Textron Aviation corporate history. Valuation data for this specific airframe is listed at $2,000,000, with registry entries indicating an executive configuration and corporate ownership rather than individual private use.
The cabin for N390GM is described as a typical single‑zone executive layout, with registry notes that although the Premier I/IA frequently carries a standard 6‑place club seating arrangement, this airframe is listed with 8 seats. Avionics for this airframe are the factory/typical fit of Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21, supporting integrated navigation, communications and flight management capabilities expected for the type. Operated under corporate ownership by BLACK BEAR INVESTMENT HOLDINGS INC of Naples, FL, US, the aircraft’s mission profile is consistent with light‑business jet roles: short‑to‑medium range executive transport and on‑demand corporate trips within the listed 1,480 nm range and typical cruise of 426 kts. Maintenance and operational considerations align with twin Williams FJ44 powerplants and single‑zone interior support systems standard to Premier I/IA examples.
The Raytheon / Beechcraft 390 Premier I family occupies the light jet performance niche, offering relatively high cruise speed and a 41,000 ft service ceiling for its class. Competing models in this segment include other light jets with similar range and cabin size; buyer and charter demand for serial RB-172 would reflect interest in proven Williams FJ44 powerplants and Pro Line 21 avionics. For resale and maintenance considerations, the Premier I/IA lineage and corporate ownership profile of N390GM inform value assessments such as the listed $2,000,000, and operators typically evaluate engine shop visit schedules and avionics support when assessing lifecycle cost.
