Competing models in this segment include latest-generation offerings from Bombardier and Dassault; demand typically comes from corporate flight departments and charter operators seeking modern avionics like the Symmetry Flight Deck™. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe are influenced by factory ownership, documented maintenance history, and its 2019 build year, factors that underpin the listed valuation of $38,950,000.
