Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N3K, is a Beechcraft Premier 1A (Model 390) built in 2007 with serial number RB-218. It is owned by TVPX AIRCRAFT SOLUTIONS INC TRUSTEE, a corporation based in North Salt Lake, UT, US, and is listed on the U.S. registry. Registry records note a certification allowance of up to eight seats while market listings identify a six-place executive configuration. No public valuation or condition report was published for this specific airframe in the provided data.

The cabin for this Premier 1A is described in broker material as a six-passenger executive configuration while registry notes permit up to 8 seats, indicating flexibility between an executive layout and higher-density seating. The installed avionics suite is the Collins Pro Line 21, providing NAV/GPS, TCAS, weather systems and radar as listed, supporting typical corporate transport missions and IFR operations across continental ranges. With a 1,430 nm range and a cruise speed of 426 knots, typical operations for this airframe would include medium-range point-to-point executive flights and on-demand charter missions originating from its owner’s base in North Salt Lake, Utah. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow Premier 1A common practice, driven by twin Williams FJ44-2A engines and the integrated Pro Line 21 avionics architecture.

The Beechcraft Premier 1A occupies the light jet performance niche with a composite fuselage and a high-speed cruise that competes with light jets such as early Learjets and the Cessna Citation series. Its combination of a 426-kt cruise, 1,430-nm range and a 41,000-ft ceiling makes it attractive for owner-operators and charter operators seeking speed and cabin comfort in the light class. Buyer and resale considerations often hinge on engine cycles for the Williams FJ44-2A powerplants, avionics configuration like the Pro Line 21, and the interior layout choice between a six-place executive fit and the registry-allowed eight-seat arrangement.
