The cabin for this airframe is described as a typical executive layout with a 10‑place executive configuration commonly installed, while certification allows up to 22 seats depending on configuration. Avionics fit for the type and this installation is listed as the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4, which may be an OEM option or a retrofit depending on the aircraft’s maintenance and modification history.
