N408QS

This entry covers airframe N408QS, an Embraer EMB-505 Phenom 300 manufactured in 2017 with serial number 50500408. The aircraft is recorded as owned by NETJETS SALES INC (a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US) and is registered in the US; ownership is currently held by NETJETS SALES INC. The build date, serial and corporate ownership establish this airframe as a late-production Phenom 300 example with a contemporary executive fit and a market valuation noted at $8,900,000. Registry details and valuation position the airplane within fractional and corporate fleet inventories rather than as an early owner-operated airframe.

This specific Phenom 300 is typically outfitted in a Typical 7-8 place executive layout (up to 9 pax possible depending on fit), offering a conventional light‑jet small-cabin configuration optimized for executive transport. Avionics for this airframe reflect the earlier Phenom 300 standard with a Garmin G1000 (older Phenom 300); later examples adopt Prodigy Touch / G3000 fitment, indicating a legacy avionics suite for cockpit crews and maintenance. Operated under corporate ownership, the aircraft is suited to short to medium interstate and regional missions consistent with its 1,877 nm range and high-speed cruise, often used for point-to-point executive repositioning or fractional fleet dispatch from its owner's Oklahoma City base. Maintenance considerations are those typical of a late-2010s Phenom 300: twin PW535E engines, regional avionics support for the G1000 installation, and interior configurations tailored to executive transport.

The Embraer EMB-505 Phenom 300 family occupies the light-to-light-medium business jet niche, offering high cruise speed and elevated operating ceilings relative to many competitors. With a 446 kts cruise and 45,000 ft ceiling, the model competes against light jets from other manufacturers that emphasize speed and short-field capability. Buyer and charter demand for late-model Phenom 300s is driven by fractional operators and corporate fleets seeking efficient regional capability; resale considerations for this airframe include avionics generation (G1000 versus later G3000/Prodigy Touch upgrades) and the residual value indicated by the $8,900,000 appraisal. Maintenance and marketability are strongly influenced by engine model (PW535E) support and the aircraft’s corporate, fleet-oriented ownership.
