N535BC

This entry documents airframe N535BC, a business jet built by Embraer S.A. and delivered as an Embraer EMB-505 Phenom 300 with manufacturer serial number 50500120. Ownership is held by the Oregon-based corporation WAC Charter Inc (Aurora, OR, US), which operates the aircraft in a charter capacity; specific build year and prior ownership history not published. The aircraft is U.S.-registered and maintained in a typical charter configuration; valuation and any notable registry actions are not published. Registry and public records identify the airframe by the listed serial and tail number and show it operating from the owner’s stated home base in Oregon.

The subject aircraft features a typical six-passenger executive layout with club seating and an enclosed lavatory as described for its charter configuration, though actual interior arrangements can vary by operator. Its avionics suite is the Embraer Prodigy Touch, which is based on the Garmin G3000 architecture, supporting integrated touchscreen flightdeck management, glass instrumentation and advanced navigation/automation commonly used in light-jet charter operations. With a transcontinental range of approximately 2,010 nm and high-speed cruise near 464 kts, the aircraft is typically employed on short to medium-length charter missions, point-to-point corporate shuttles, and air taxi operations from its Aurora, Oregon base. Maintenance considerations align with Phenom 300 family schedules and Pratt & Whitney Canada PW500-series engine sustainment practices.

The Embraer EMB-505 Phenom 300 occupies the light to super-light business jet niche, offering higher cruise speeds and cabin comfort relative to older light jets. Its performance—3,478 lbf engines, 45,000 ft ceiling and 2,010 nm range—positions it competitively against models such as late-model Cessna Citation and HondaJet variants in charter fleets. Buyer and charter demand generally favors the Phenom 300 for efficient short-medium sectors, while maintenance and resale considerations center on avionics configuration (Prodigy Touch/G3000) and adherence to manufacturer-recommended engine and airframe inspection programs.
