N54KJ

This entry covers the specific Eclipse EA500 airframe bearing U.S. registration N54KJ, built in 2007 with serial number 000091 by Eclipse Aviation Corp. The aircraft is owned by SWU LLC, a corporation based in Boston, GA, and has been recorded on U.S. civil registers under that ownership. Registered as a corporate asset in Boston, GA, the airframe’s registry and ownership are reflected in FAA records. The listed market valuation for this airframe is $1,057,430, reflecting its configuration and installed systems.

The cabin of this EA500 is typically arranged as 1 (pilot) + 4 passenger executive club typical; optional 5th or 6th seat in some layouts, providing an executive, small-group transport environment consistent with owner-operator corporate use. Avionics are fitted with an IS&S Avio integrated IFMS / PFD suite; many EA500s received common Avio or Avio NG upgrades, aligning this airframe with contemporary cockpit upgrade paths. Typical missions for this airframe type operated from a corporate base in Boston, GA would include short-to-medium range executive travel within the aircraft’s 1,125 nm range and high-speed cruise profile; maintenance and operational planning reflect twin turbofan procedures for light personal/business jet operations.

The Eclipse EA500 occupies the light, fixed-wing multi-engine turbofan niche aimed at owner-operators and small corporate flight departments, offering high cruise speed (335 kts) and a relatively high service ceiling (41,000 ft) for its class. Competing models in the segment emphasize similar single-pilot capability and economical operating costs; buyer and charter demand for EA500s often hinges on avionics fit and engine maintenance history. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include the PW610F-A engine support and the commonality of Avio/Avio NG avionics upgrades when assessing marketability and lifecycle value.
