Model & Market Context
This entry describes airframe N490FL, a 1999 remanufactured business jet with serial RK-252. The airframe was remanufactured by Nextant Aerospace (remanufacture of Beechjet 400A) and is registered in the US; it is recorded as owned by the corporate trustee TVPX ARS INC TRUSTEE located in North Salt Lake, UT, US. Ownership is held by the named corporate trustee, and the aircraft carries the specialist Williams- powered conversion that characterizes the 400XTi remanufacture program. Registry and condition highlights emphasize that this airframe is a remanufactured platform rather than an original-production Beechjet.
The cabin for this specific airframe is configured in a typical seven-place executive layout, offering club seating with available single 3‑place divan options and the possibility of a belted lavatory installation; the listed configuration for N490FL is seven seats. Avionics fit on this airframe is Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 (4‑tube) / Collins FMS, supporting modern navigation and flight-management capabilities for charter and corporate missions. With a mission range of 2,003 nm and cruise speed of 406 kts, operations for this airframe typically encompass short- to mid‑range executive transport, point-to-point business trips, and on-demand charter missions operated from its trustee’s base in North Salt Lake, UT, US. Maintenance considerations are influenced by the remanufacture program and the Williams FJ44 engines, which change lifecycle and overhaul profiles relative to original-production powerplants.
The Nextant 400XTi represented a remanufactured upgrade path for Beechjet 400A airframes, delivering improved fuel efficiency and avionics packaging via Williams FJ44 engines and a Pro Line 21 suite. For buyers and charter operators, the 400XTi occupies a performance niche offering transcontinental capability at competitive cruise speeds and a 45,000 ft ceiling while leveraging an airframe that has been extensively updated; this affects resale and maintenance considerations positively by concentrating upgrades in propulsion and avionics. Market demand tends to favor remanufactured platforms like this when operators seek modern systems and improved operating economics compared with older, unmodified light jets.
