Model & Market Context

This entry covers the specific Eclipse 500 airframe registered as N656FP, a 2013-build example with serial number 550-0265. The jet is owned by CATMARK ENTERPRISES LLC, a limited liability company based in Richmond, VT, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. The airframe is a later-production Eclipse 500 (EA500) equipped and maintained to owner/operator standards typical for single-pilot light jets; its market valuation is noted at $1,400,000. No other public registry actions or additional operators are listed for this tail number in the supplied data.

The cabin of this airframe is configured as Single‑pilot capable, 1+4 executive layout (5–6 seats typical), supporting executive transport roles and owner-flown missions. Avionics fit on this specific jet are listed as IS&S Avio (Avio NG) / Avio integrated flight management, providing a modern integrated flight deck consistent with light-jet single-pilot operations. Typical mission profiles for this platform and configuration include short to medium-range business hops, regional point-to-point travel up to the listed 1,125 nm range at cruise speeds around 375 kts, and access to smaller airports with limited ground support. Maintenance considerations for this aircraft reflect standard support for PW600-series turbofan installations and integrated avionics suites; specific inspection or refurb history for this serial is not provided.

The Eclipse 500 (EA500) family occupies the very light jet segment, offering owner-pilot capability, relatively low operating costs, and single-pilot certification compared with larger light jets. With a ceiling of 41,000 ft and cruise near 375 kts, the type competes with other VLJs and low-cost light jets for owner-operators and on-demand charter where runway access and speed are priorities. The presence of Pratt & Whitney Canada PW610F-A engines and IS&S Avio NG avionics aligns this airframe with later production standards, factors that influence resale and maintenance considerations reflected in the $1,400,000 valuation.
