Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N400XC, is a 1998-build Beechjet 400A (400A) with serial number RK-208. The certificate shows registration and ownership recorded to N400XC LEASING LLC, an LLC based in Wichita, KS, US, with the aircraft issued a US registration. The airframe valuation is listed at $1,600,000, reflecting its late-1990s build year and market position for fixed-wing multi-engine light business jets. No additional operator name or distinct registry events beyond the LLC ownership are published.

The local owner/operator base is recorded in Wichita, KS, US, indicating the aircraft is likely domiciled and maintained in that region under its LLC ownership. The cabin is outfitted to accommodate 10 passengers in typical light-jet configurations, with space and seating suitable for short- to medium-range business missions within the aircraft’s 1,180 nm range and cruise capability of 443 kts. Specific avionics fit and detailed interior amenities for this airframe are Not published; maintenance considerations reflect typical age-related inspections and lifecycle checks for a 1998-built airframe powered by the JT15D-5 engines. The airframe’s service ceiling of 45,000 ft supports high-altitude IFR operations common to business jet routing.

The Beechjet 400A (400A) occupies the light, twin-engine business jet niche, trading speed and climb performance against limited cabin size and range compared with larger category jets. With a cruise speed of 443 kts and a 1,180 nm range, the model serves point-to-point business missions and charter work where runway performance and higher cruise speeds matter. For a 1998 airframe with a listed value of $1,600,000, resale and operating-cost considerations center on engine and avionics overhauls, structural service bulletins, and the availability of maintenance resources for the JT15D-5 powerplants.
