Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N400DC is a Beechjet 400A (Beechjet 400A (Hawker Beechcraft 400A)) with manufacturer listed as Raytheon Aircraft Company and serial RK-250. This specific airframe is owned by Clemens Aviation LLC, a corporation based in Wichita, KS, and is registered in the US. Recorded ownership and registry entries list Clemens Aviation LLC as the corporate owner and operator/home base in Wichita. The airframe is valued at $1,600,000, reflecting its configuration and market status as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet.

The subject Beechjet 400A, as operated by Clemens Aviation LLC from its Wichita base, is typically employed in short- to medium-range business transport roles consistent with its 1,693 nm range and high cruise speed of 443 kts. Cabin layout and seating count are not published for this individual airframe in the provided data, but the platform is usually configured for executive transport missions. Avionics fit for this specific tail number are not detailed in the available information; maintenance considerations for the airframe center on its twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-5 powerplants and airframe lifecycle, given its valuation and operational ceiling of 45,000 ft. Routine corporate operations would emphasize availability for high-speed, high-altitude hops and typical short-field business flights from the Wichita area.

The Beechjet 400A family occupies a performance niche as a light business jet offering rapid cruise and high service ceiling, powered in this instance by twin JT15D-5 engines producing 2,965 lbf each. Competing models typically include other light jets that emphasize similar speed and altitudes; buyer and charter demand for this configuration is influenced by operating costs, age, and resale value—here represented by the listed $1,600,000 valuation. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe specifically will focus on engine time, airframe hours, and the service history associated with serial RK-250 under corporate ownership by Clemens Aviation LLC.
