N602JC

This article covers airframe N602JC, a 1999-built Beechcraft 400A (Beechjet 400A / Hawker 400A) with serial number RK-256. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by FIRST FRONTIER BC LLC, an LLC based in Duncansville, PA, US. Notable registry and operator actions include an operator-refurbishment recorded in 2024 for the cabin and avionics upgrades noted in operator listings. As of the latest available data the aircraft is valued at $1,600,000 and is presented as a refurbished, executive-configured light business jet.

This specific Beechcraft 400A is listed with an operator-refurbished, seven-passenger executive cabin layout featuring a four-place club, two forward-facing seats, one aft-facing seat, an enclosed lavatory and a mini-galley per 2024 refurbishment listings. Avionics are reported as an upgraded fit including ProLine 21 with Collins FMS-6000 and Collins GPS-4000S, noted as operator-upgraded equipment. Typical missions for this airframe would encompass short- to medium-range executive transport and on-demand charter segments within the continental United States given its 1,180 nm range and high cruise speed. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the JT15D-5 powerplants’ established support network and the market expectation of systems checks following cabin and avionics refurbishments.

The Beechcraft 400A family occupies a light business jet niche offering high cruise speeds and altitudes (here, up to 45,000 ft and 449 kts) for regional executive travel. Competing models in the same segment historically include small-cabin jets with similar mission capabilities; buyers often compare operational costs and avionics capability when evaluating used examples. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by its 1999 build year, the documented 2024 operator refurbishments, and the presence of upgraded ProLine 21 avionics, all of which typically support stronger marketability among owner-operators and charter operators.
