N472EM

This airframe, registered as N472EM, is a 2006-built Raytheon Beechjet 400A (Hawker 400XP) with manufacturer serial RK-472. The airframe was manufactured by Raytheon Aircraft Company and is recorded in U.S. registry under owner CARVER AIR LLC, an Albany, New York–based limited liability company. The airframe’s public trail shows broker advertising that reports a recently fitted avionics package and a seven‑place executive cabin configuration alongside the registry listing of ten seats. The aircraft is valued in current records at $1,600,000, a figure that reflects market position and listed equipment for this specific airframe.

The cabin for this specific airframe is described in broker listings as a 7‑place executive double‑club configuration while the civil registry records a 10‑seat capacity, indicating a typical conversion between certified seating and executive interior fit. Avionics for this airframe are listed in broker/for‑sale specifications as a Garmin G5000 suite, which supports modern glass‑cockpit operations and situational awareness for business missions. Typical missions for the type and this configuration include short‑ to medium‑range executive transport and on‑demand charter operations out of Albany, NY, and regional hubs, taking advantage of the aircraft’s cruise speed and altitude capability. Maintenance considerations for this particular airframe center on JT15D‑5R engine support and the upkeep of an upgraded avionics suite reported in sales literature.

The Raytheon Beechjet 400A/Hawker 400XP occupies the light business jet niche with relatively high cruise speeds and transcontinental short‑range capability, exemplified by this airframe’s 443 kt cruise and 1,693 nm range. Competing models in the segment include early Citation series and Learjet variants; buyers often prioritize cabin layout flexibility and avionics upgrades such as the reported Garmin G5000. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2006 airframe include engine lifecycle on JT15D‑5R powerplants, interior refurbishment to reconcile broker‑listed executive fitment with registry seating, and the market impact of a sub‑million‑to‑mid‑million valuation bracket represented by the listed $1,600,000 price.
