N701TW

The airframe bearing tail number N701TW is an Embraer-built light jet, model Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100, completed in 2009 with manufacturer serial 50000088. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by MERIDIAN ASSET LEASING LLC, a corporation based in Saint Louis, MO, US; the current record indicates corporate ownership and U.S. registration. Notable registry data include the 2009 build year and continuous corporate ownership with an estimated market valuation of $2,500,000, reflecting its age and configuration.

This specific Phenom 100 is fitted in an executive club configuration intended for six passengers, consistent with the typical 4–6 passenger executive layout and the option for an enclosed lavatory available on many examples. The flight deck is the Prodigy suite (Garmin G1000-based), noted as the typical Phenom 100 Prodigy flight deck for this model, supporting single-pilot operation in many commercial and corporate settings. Operationally the aircraft suits short to mid-range executive missions, ferrying regional routes within its 926 nm range at cruise speeds around 405 kts, often deployed by lessors or charter operators based from its owner’s Saint Louis, MO location. Maintenance considerations center on the twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW617F-E turbofans and lifecycle tracking important for valuation and lease returns.

The Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 occupies the light jet niche for owner-operators and fractional/charter fleets seeking high cruise speed and modern avionics in a compact cabin. Competing models in the segment typically include other entry-level business jets offering similar seating and mission profiles; buyer demand favors aircraft with Prodigy/G1000 avionics and well-documented maintenance. Resale and lease-market considerations for this 2009 airframe reflect engine life, avionics fit, and the stated market value of $2,500,000, factors that influence refurbishment, maintenance cycles, and remarketing by a corporate lessor.
