N3JG

This entry documents the specific Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 airframe registered as N3JG, built in 2011 with serial number 50000246. The aircraft is owned by JRG LLC, an LLC based in Lake Charles, LA, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. No additional ownership transfers or notable registry actions are published beyond the current LLC ownership. The airframe's market valuation is listed at $4,100,000, reflecting its year, equipment fit and light executive configuration.

The cabin of this Phenom 100 is configured in a four-place club layout with 4 pedestal executive seats, a forward credenza and an aft belted lavatory, reflecting a light executive mission profile optimized for short interstate or regional trips. Avionics onboard are a modern Garmin suite: Garmin G1000 Prodigy with three 12.4" displays, Garmin GFC-700 autopilot, Garmin GWX-68 weather radar, Garmin GTX-850 TCAS I, ADS-B Out and an Avance L3 Wi‑Fi system, enabling single-pilot IFR capability and contemporary situational awareness. Typical operations would include owner-flown business missions or on-demand charter within the aircraft’s 1,178 nm range from its base in Lake Charles, with cruise speeds near 390 knots and high-altitude capability to FL410 for efficient routing. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow PW617F-E engine schedules and Garmin avionics lifecycle procedures; being a lightly equipped four-seat Phenom reduces some interior refurbishment demands compared with larger executive variants.

The Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 occupies the entry-level light business jet niche, prized for compact executive comfort, low operating costs relative to larger jets, and single-pilot certification in many operators. Competing models include the Cessna Citation Mustang/Jet family and HondaJet, with buyer demand driven by owner-operators and short-haul charter operators. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific 2011 airframe center on the condition of its PW617F-E engines, the state of the G1000 Prodigy avionics installation, and the interior’s executive four-place configuration, which can preserve residual value when well maintained.
