N541HC

The airframe bearing registration N541HC is a 1996 Raytheon-built Beechjet 400A, serial number RK-123, operated in civil U.S. registry. Ownership records show the airframe held by 541HC LLC, an LLC based in Salem, Oregon, US, which serves as the primary registered owner and operator/home base contact for the type. The airframe is powered by a twin-engine configuration and has been valued at $750,000 in the most recent available assessment, reflecting its age and market position. Notable registry actions include its continued U.S. registration as N541HC and documented ownership under the Salem, OR limited liability company.

The cabin of N541HC conforms to the Beechjet 400A’s typical ten-seat executive light-jet layout, supporting short to mid-range business travel and charter missions within its 1,533 nm range and operating at high single-cycle cruise speeds near 447 kts. Based on its ownership and U.S. registration, routine operations are conducted from Salem, Oregon, or nearby regional airports, with mission profiles that commonly include business transport, light charter, and repositioning flights between regional hubs. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include type-specific engine support for the FJ44-3AP powerplants and aging-airframe inspections consistent with a 1996 build; avionics and interior fitment details for this airframe are not published in the supplied data.

The Raytheon Beechjet 400A family occupies the light twinjet niche, offering higher cruise speed and cabin capacity than piston or turboprop alternatives while remaining smaller and lower-cost to operate than midsize business jets. With two FJ44-3AP engines producing 3,052 lbf each and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, the model competes with light jets such as contemporary Learjet and Cessna entries of similar vintage. Market demand for a 1996 Beechjet 400A like N541HC is influenced by operating costs, maintenance status, and avionics upgrades; the stated valuation of $750,000 reflects these resale and maintenance considerations for buyers and charter operators.
