Model & Market Context
This entry covers the specific airframe N462SJ, a Beechcraft 400A originally manufactured by Raytheon Aircraft Company / Beechcraft in 2001 with serial RK-317. The airframe was later remanufactured under the Nextant 400XT/XTi conversion and is documented as remanufactured by Nextant Aerospace. The aircraft is registered in the US and currently owned by the corporation FLIGHT OPTIONS LLC based in Cleveland, OH, US; this registration and corporate ownership are the principal recorded registry actions. Estimated market valuation for this remanufactured airframe is $1,250,000.
The airframe is configured in the typical Nextant executive remanufacture layout with 6–8 passenger club seating as the usual cabin arrangement, while the aircraft carries a registered seating capacity of 10. Avionics are noted as a Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 fit, identified as a remanufactured Nextant option, supporting typical business-jet navigation, communications and single-pilot or two-pilot operation profiles. Operated from its corporate base in Cleveland, OH, US, missions for this airframe typically align with medium-range business travel across continental routes consistent with its 2,000 nm range and 420 kt cruise capability. Maintenance considerations reflect the blended nature of a 2001 airframe with modern remanufactured engines and systems, requiring attention to both legacy airframe records and Nextant-specific modification documentation.
The airframe is a remanufactured example of the Beechcraft 400A family, marketed through Nextant conversions that replace original systems with modern powerplants and avionics to extend operational life and performance. Its niche combines light-corporate speed and altitude—420 kt cruise and 45,000 ft ceiling—with improved fuel efficiency from twin Williams FJ44-3AP engines; competitors include light-cabin remanufactured jets and newer entry-level light or midsize business jets. Buyer and charter demand typically targets operators seeking upgraded performance at lower acquisition cost, while resale and maintenance considerations hinge on documented Nextant remanufacture status and the corporate maintenance program of FLIGHT OPTIONS LLC.
