Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N65SQ, is a 2005-build Beechjet 400A with manufacturer serial RK-438 produced under the Raytheon Aircraft Company lineage (Beechcraft / Hawker Beechcraft). The jet is owned by MTJ AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Mooresville, NC, and is listed on the US registry. Throughout its recorded history this airframe has been operated in executive configurations typical for 400A conversions and is currently valued at approximately $1,600,000, reflecting market position and condition indicators recorded at the time of valuation.

The cabin for this specific Beechjet 400A is arranged in an executive layout typically accommodating 7–10 seats with a forward galley and an aft lavatory, consistent with standard 400A conversion and charter configurations. Avionics fit on this airframe follows reported typical Collins/Pro Line installations, with various Collins FIS/Pro Line EFIS-era suites reported across the model line, supporting modern IFR charter operations. Based from Mooresville, NC, the aircraft’s mission profile centers on short-to-mid-range executive charters and owner-flown regional missions, leveraging the type’s cruise speed and range for efficient point-to-point trips. Maintenance considerations align with twin JT15D series engine support and the airframe’s 2005 vintage; lifecycle and component replacement items influence operational availability and valuation.

The Beechjet 400A (Hawker/Beechcraft 400A) occupies a light-cabin, high-speed niche with performance suited to regional executive transport: fast cruise (449 kts) and a service ceiling to 45,000 ft. Typical competitors include other light jets offering similar speed/range combinations, and buyer demand often targets charter operators and owner-operators seeking a 7–10 seat executive interior. Resale and maintenance economics for this airframe reflect its 2005 build year, JT15D engine series support, and installed avionics vintage; these factors are key in pricing and mid-life refurbishment decisions.
