N677UP

This airframe, registration N677UP, is a Hawker Beechcraft entry identified as the Hawker Beechcraft 400A (Beechjet 400A) with manufacturer serial RK-596. It is registered in the United States and is owned by WHEELS UP PARTNERS LLC, a New York, NY–based corporation; the registry reflects ownership by Wheels Up Partners LLC as the primary corporate operator. Valuation records list this specific airframe at $1,600,000, indicating a market position consistent with mature light-cabin business jets of its generation. Registry status and corporate base in New York provide the primary operator/home-base association for this jet.

The airframe is commonly outfitted in a typical 7–9 place executive layout; within the Wheels Up fleet the configuration is often a four-place club or 7-place executive arrangement, and this example is noted with a 7-seat executive fit. Avionics fit for this model on comparable 400A airframes is the Collins Pro Line suite, and this airframe is reported with a Collins Pro Line–style installation consistent with Pro Line 4 variants. Operationally, the jet’s 1,519 nm range and 430 kt cruise speed suit short- to mid-range point-to-point business missions from its New York corporate base. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft are driven by its JT15D-5 turbofan pair and fleet-standard outfitting under corporate management.

The Hawker Beechcraft 400A (Beechjet 400A) represented by serial RK-596 occupies the light twin-jet business category produced by Beechcraft / Hawker Beechcraft. With twin JT15D-5 engines and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, the type offers a combination of speed and altitude capability for its class. The published value of $1,600,000 for this airframe reflects typical market considerations for older light business jets, where engine type, avionics (Collins Pro Line variants), interior configuration, and corporate maintenance history materially influence resale and charter demand.
