N52AL

This airframe, registered as N52AL, is a 1988 Beechcraft-built Beechjet 400 with manufacturer serial number RJ-38. The aircraft is owned by the corporate entity Alp Air LLC, based in Asheville, NC, US, and operates with a United States registration. The airframe’s documented configuration and avionics fit reflect in-service business-jet use; its reported market value is $895,000. No public record of other ownership changes or notable incidents is provided in the supplied data.

The cabin is arranged in a seven‑passenger layout with a forward three‑place divan and four‑place aft club seating, and it includes a non-belted aft lavatory, a configuration typical for short‑ to medium‑haul corporate missions. Avionics installed on this airframe combine legacy and modern elements: a Collins suite augmented by a Garmin GTN-725Xi, Garmin GTX-345R transponder(s), Honeywell Primus 650 weather radar, Sperry SPZ-900 autopilot, and Garmin GDL-69 XM/ADS‑B In/Out capability, supporting situational awareness and mandated ADS-B compliance. Based from Asheville, NC, the aircraft’s performance — notably its high cruise speed and 1,519 nm range — suits point-to-point regional and transcontinental light‑jet missions; maintenance considerations center on age-related systems and engine support for the Pratt & Whitney JT15D-5D powerplants.

The Beechcraft Beechjet 400 occupies the light‑jet niche, offering relatively high cruise speeds and a 45,000 ft ceiling for efficient, fast regional routing. Competing models in this category include late‑model light jets from other manufacturers that balance speed, cabin size, and operating economics. For buyers and charter operators, a 1988 airframe like N52AL presents typical maintenance and resale considerations: aging avionics and systems that may require modernization despite the presence of key upgrades, and market valuation reflective of airframe age, installed equipment, and operator maintenance history.
