Model & Market Context
This entry documents airframe N62RC, an Eclipse EA500 (Eclipse 500) built in 2007 with serial number 000043. The airframe is registered in the US and is held by owner ECLIPSE JET LLC, an LLC located in Forest, VA, US; ownership is recorded to that LLC. The aircraft’s operator/home base is associated with the owner's Forest, Virginia location, and registry records reflect continued U.S. registration. Public valuation or condition reports are not published in the supplied data.
This specific EA500 is outfitted in a typical 1+4/1+5 executive cabin layout supporting 5–6 seats with a small galley and a baggage compartment, configured to serve light business and on-demand charter missions. Avionics fit for the airframe is within the IS&S Avio family, noted as IS&S Avio (Avio NG) / Avio avionics family (varies by retrofit), indicating that equipment may differ on this serial depending on retrofit history. Typical mission profiles for the airframe leverage its /335 kts cruise and 1,125 nm range for regional point-to-point travel, often flown from the operator’s Forest, VA base. Maintenance and operational planning for this airframe must accommodate potential avionics variability when scheduling upgrades, inspections, or avionics-related ferry flights.
The Eclipse EA500 family occupies the very light twin-jet niche characterized by modest runway requirements, a six-seat executive cabin, and turbofan-powered performance driven by the 2× PW610F-A engines producing 900 lbf each. With a cruise of 335 kts and a max service ceiling of 41,000 ft, the model is positioned for short- to medium-haul corporate and owner-flown missions rather than long-range intercontinental use. Buyer and charter demand for individual airframes often hinges on installed avionics and retrofit history; as supplied, this airframe’s variable Avio configuration is a notable factor for maintenance planning and resale comparability.
