Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing registration N523DR is a 2002-built Raytheon 390 Premier 1, serial RB-50, completed by Raytheon Aircraft Company. The manufacturer entry for this airframe reflects the corporate lineage of the product line—Raytheon Aircraft Company (later Hawker Beechcraft / Beechcraft)—as the program transferred through subsequent company reorganizations.

This Premier 1-configured airframe typically carries an executive 6–8 passenger layout with a forward refreshment center and an aft lavatory, matching the common factory executive interior for the series. The avionics fit for this airframe is the Collins Pro Line 21, identified as a typical factory fit or common retrofit on Premier 1s, supporting business turbofan operations with modern integrated flight management and navigation capabilities. Typical missions for an aircraft with the listed range and cruise speed include short-to-medium international or domestic corporate hops and on-demand charter sectors; specific operator route patterns are not published for N523DR. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow the Premier 1’s turbofan and avionics maintenance regimes, notably the twin Williams FJ44 turbofan program and Pro Line 21 support logistics.
The Raytheon 390 Premier 1 (Beechcraft Premier I) occupies the light/entry-level light jet niche, offering high cruise speed and a composite-cabin structure for its class. Its twin Williams FJ44 engines and transcontinental-approaching range make it competitive against contemporaries in the light-jet segment; buyer and charter demand historically centers on owner-operators and small charter operators seeking speed and cabin comfort. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe mirror the fleet: lifecycle support for the FJ44 engines and Pro Line 21 avionics, airframe hours and serial-specific maintenance history (serial RB-50) being key determinants of residual value.
