Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N725BD, an Embraer-built business jet delivered in 2008 with manufacturer serial number 14501034. The aircraft is an Embraer EMB-135BJ Legacy 600 produced by Embraer S.A. and is registered in the US. Ownership is listed to BDG AIRCHARTER INC, a corporation based in Syosset, NY, US, which operates the airframe in a charter role; the airframe is presented in listings as a VIP-configured executive transport with an assessed market value of $13,000,000. The FAA type certification and registry data note the original regional configuration and seating capacity contrasts with the VIP layout advertised for charter service.
The specific cabin of N725BD is reported on charter listings as a VIP three‑zone layout with approximately a 13‑passenger executive interior while FAA type certification documentation records the original regional configuration at 37 seats. Avionics fit is reported as Honeywell Primus equipment, with many Legacy 600 examples receiving Primus Elite retrofits; this airframe is described with the Honeywell Primus family avionics suite. Typical mission profiles for this airframe in charter service include transcontinental and transoceanic business travel enabled by a 3,400 nm range and a 447 kt cruise. Operator maintenance and configuration choices reflect its dual history as a regional-derived airframe converted to an executive layout.
The Embraer EMB-135BJ Legacy 600 occupies the midsize long‑range corporate jet niche, offering regional-jet origins with business-jet outfitting for increased cabin volume and range. Competing models in this performance bracket include other converted regional jets and larger purpose-built bizjets; demand in the charter market favors examples with VIP three‑zone interiors and modern avionics like Honeywell Primus Elite. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe type include airframe age from a 2008 build, engine support for Rolls‑Royce AE 3007A1E powerplants, and the valuation impact of interior conversions versus the original 37-seat certification.
