N432SM

This entry covers airframe N432SM, a 1996-built Hawker configured under serial number 258293 and manufactured by Raytheon Corporate Jets Inc. The airframe is recorded as owned by Meyers Group Aircraft LLC, a corporate owner based in Aventura, FL, US, which serves as the operator/home base for the type. The airframe carries United States registration and has a published market value of $1,695,000, with registry and valuation details reflecting a mature mid‑1990s business jet in corporate service. Notable administrative points include the clear corporate ownership and US registration status, while condition highlights are limited to the stated valuation rather than detailed maintenance history.

The cabin of N432SM is described by the seating capacity of 15, indicating a high-density corporate or charter layout for intercity and regional missions; specific interior finishes are not published in the supplied data. Avionics fit for this airframe is a Honeywell Primus II installation, including EFIS SPZ-8000 with ED-800 and a Honeywell NZ-2000 FMS, supporting contemporary navigation and flight management tasks for the era. Typical operations for the airframe, given its 2,640 nm range and 448 kts cruise, would include medium‑range business travel and charter sectors from its Aventura, Florida base, enabling non‑stop transcontinental missions in many cases. Maintenance considerations implied by the data center on engine type and avionics vintage—Garrett TFE731 series engines and Honeywell Primus II systems—which require type‑specific support and avionics life‑cycle management.

The Hawker 800XP family occupies a mid‑size, super‑mid business jet niche, balancing transcontinental range and cabin capacity against operating cost. With twin Garrett TFE731 powerplants producing 3,500 lbf each and a maximum operating ceiling of 41,000 ft, the model competes with contemporaries in speed and range while appealing to buyers seeking robust short‑to‑medium haul capability. Market and resale considerations for this 1996 airframe include age‑related depreciation (reflected in the $1,695,000 valuation), ongoing demand from corporate buyers and charter operators for proven platforms, and the need for inspections and potential avionics or interior updates to remain competitive.
