N478QS

This article covers the specific airframe bearing tail number N478QS, a 2024-built example of the Embraer Phenom 300E with manufacturer serial 50500802. The aircraft was manufactured by Embraer S.A. and is registered in the United States; it is owned by the corporation Fis Inc, located in Oklahoma, USA. Registered to Fis Inc upon delivery in 2024, this airframe represents a current-production Phenom 300E example with modern avionics and a six-seat executive interior. Valuation records list the airframe value at $13,258,353, reflecting its new-build status and equipment fit.

The cabin of N478QS is arranged as a six-place executive club with a forward refreshment center and an aft belted lavatory, configured for corporate transport and short-to-medium range business missions. Avionics are provided by the Garmin G3000 (Prodigy Touch) integrated flight deck, supporting modern situational awareness and single-pilot IFR capability typical of the Phenom 300E line. With a cruise speed of 464 kts and a maximum operating ceiling of 45,000 ft, this specific airframe is suited to high-speed point-to-point executive flights of up to 2,010 nm. Based in the United States under corporate ownership, routine operator maintenance considerations follow the manufacturer and engine OEM schedules for the PW535E1 powerplants.

The Embraer Phenom 300E occupies the light jet niche for high-performance, short-to-mid-range executive transport, delivering competitive cruise speed and range relative to its class. Its direct competitors include other light-cabin jets that trade off cabin volume versus speed and runway performance; the Phenom 300E emphasizes a blend of cabin ergonomics and advanced avionics such as the Garmin G3000. For buyers and operators, resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by the PW535E1 engines, Garmin avionics integration, and a near-new build-year (2024), which together support strong charter demand and retain higher valuation, as reflected in the listed $13,258,353 price.
