Model & Market Context
This entry describes US-registered airframe N485CT, a Beechcraft / Raytheon Hawker 400XP (Beechjet 400A) built in 2008 with manufacturer serial RK-545. The airframe is owned by WHEELS UP PARTNERS LLC of New York, NY, US, and is operated from that corporate base; it is recorded in the US registry and is valued at $2,000,000 on current listings. The airframe’s transfer into the Wheels Up fleet is noted as a primary ownership event for this serial, and its valuation reflects typical market considerations for a mid‑2000s 400XP in operational condition. Condition highlights are consistent with active corporate use and standard maintenance cycles for this class of fixed-wing multi-engine business jet.
The cabin for this Hawker 400XP is fitted in a typical 7–10‑place executive club arrangement with a forward galley/refreshment center, mid‑club seating, and an enclosed aft lavatory, supporting regional executive transport and on‑demand charter missions. Avionics installed or commonly fitted in this airframe family include Collins Pro Line suites, with typical fit options spanning ProLine 4 or ProLine II configurations, providing the navigation and communications capability expected for corporate operations. With a cruise of 443 kts and a range of 1,519 nm, the airframe is routinely employed on short to mid‑range business itineraries from its New York operator base, emphasizing rapid city‑pair missions. Maintenance considerations center on the two Pratt & Whitney JT15D-5R engines and standard airframe checks commensurate with corporate usage.
The Beechcraft / Raytheon Hawker 400XP (Beechjet 400A) occupies the fixed‑wing multi‑engine light business jet niche, offering high cruise speed and transcontinental capability within its range envelope. This specific airframe’s performance figures — including 443 kts cruise and 45,000 ft ceiling — position it for operators seeking fast, efficient regional connectivity. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial reflect its 2008 build year, the twin JT15D‑5R powerplants, and its current corporate ownership by WHEELS UP PARTNERS LLC, factors that influence buyer demand and lifecycle cost assessments.
