Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N473FL, is a 2004-build serial RK-397 originally delivered as a Beechjet 400A airframe and subsequently remanufactured by Nextant Aerospace. The conversion into a Nextant 400XT is a notable change in the aircraft’s lifecycle: remanufactured by Nextant Aerospace from a Raytheon Aircraft Company original airframe. Ownership is recorded to NAM JET LLC (a limited liability company based in Great Neck, NY, US), which is the current registrant/operator on the US registry. The installation of modern engines, avionics and an executive interior during the remanufacture represents the principal registry action affecting condition and capability for this specific airframe.
The cabin on this airframe is an eight-place executive layout featuring a 3-place divan and belted lavatory, configured for corporate transport or charter missions. Avionics are updated to a Collins Pro Line 21 suite with WAAS/LPV capability, Dual FMS-6100 units, Collins WXR-850 weather radar, TCAS 7.1 and ADS-B Out, providing modern navigation, situational awareness and airspace compliance for US and international operations. Typical missions for this platform and fit include transcontinental business flights and efficient regional hops within the aircraft’s 2,160 nm range and high-speed cruise of 460 kts; the high service ceiling of 45,000 ft supports efficient, above-traffic routings. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on continued support for the Williams FJ44-3AP engines and adherence to remanufacturer upgrades and service bulletins applied during the Nextant conversion.
The Nextant 400XT represents a remanufactured performance niche that modernizes older light business jets with new turbofan engines, avionics and interiors to extend service life and improve economics. Competing models occupy similar light-to-midsize executive roles, where buyers or charter operators seek higher fuel efficiency and reduced operating cost compared with legacy 400-series airframes. For this particular airframe, resale and ongoing maintenance considerations hinge on the provenance of the Nextant conversion, the Williams FJ44-3AP engine support environment, and the Collins Pro Line 21 avionics suite installed during the remanufacture.
