N500EA

This entry covers airframe N500EA, an Eclipse EA500 built in 2007 with manufacturer serial 000095. The aircraft is recorded as owned by RE CAPITAL HOLDINGS LLC (an LLC based in Sarasota, FL, US) and is registered in the US. The airframe is a 2007-build member of the Eclipse EA500 production line and, based on registry information, has been operated in an executive capacity; ownership records list RE CAPITAL HOLDINGS LLC as the current registered owner. The airframe’s condition and market positioning are reflected in an assessed value of $1,400,000.

The aircraft is outfitted in a 6-place executive cabin configured in the standard VLJ executive layout, with an approximate cabin length of ~12 ft 4 in and width of ~4 ft 8 in. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include short to mid‑range executive point‑to‑point transport within the continental United States and regional hops consistent with a 1,280 nm range and high cruise speed of 375 kts. Factory avionics are the IS&S Avio / Avio NG suite, a common fit for Eclipse EA500s that supports single‑pilot operations and modern glass‑cockpit situational awareness. Operator base activity aligns with the owner’s location in Sarasota, FL, and maintenance considerations reflect the twin‑engine PW610F‑A fleet support network and the aircraft’s VLJ systems architecture.

The Eclipse EA500 occupies the very light jet (VLJ) niche, offering high cruise speed and transcontinental‑adjacent range for a six‑place cabin. Competing models historically include other VLJs and light jets offering similar mission capability, and buyer/charter demand centers on owner‑operators and small charter operators seeking speed and efficiency. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on engine support for the PW610F‑A, avionics updates for the IS&S Avio line, and the documented build year (2007) and serial (000095) which inform lifecycle and value assessments.
