N805AE

The airframe bearing tail number N805AE is an Embraer-built regional jet completed in 2001 with manufacturer serial number 145489. This airframe is an Embraer ERJ-140LR (EMB-135KL) produced by Embraer S.A. and is recorded as owned by CORPORATE FLIGHT MANAGEMENT INC DBA of Smyrna, Tennessee, United States. The airframe is registered in the United States and carries an estimated market value of $15,000,000; registry entries and operator records indicate use in corporate and regional transport roles rather than scheduled airline service. No major exceptional events are published for this specific tail in the provided dataset.

This airframe is configured with a 37-seat single-class regional cabin layout reported for this specific registration, reflecting a high-density commuter arrangement suitable for short to medium-haul missions. The installed avionics suite is the Honeywell Primus 1000, a common fit across ERJ family variants that supports regional operations, GPS/RNAV procedures and modern glass cockpit workflows. Typical missions for this airframe under its listed owner would include corporate shuttle, charter and regional feeder services operating from a U.S. base in Smyrna, Tennessee, or nearby hubs, with routings that exploit its roughly 1,650 nm range and 450 kt cruise capability. Maintenance considerations align with fleet-standard inspection intervals for ERJ-140LR types and engine-specific care for the Rolls-Royce AE 3007 series.

The Embraer ERJ-140LR occupies the regional jet niche for 30–50 seat markets, offering higher speed and range than turboprops while undercutting larger mainline jets on operating cost per stage. Competing models include shortened regional variants from Bombardier/De Havilland Canada and smaller regional derivatives from other manufacturers; performance highlights here include a service ceiling of 37,000 ft and a useful trans-regional range of 1,650 nm. Demand among corporate and charter buyers for ERJ-140 variants depends on airframe condition, engine cycles and avionics fit — the Honeywell Primus 1000 and the Rolls-Royce AE 3007 powerplants are factors that influence maintenance scheduling and resale valuation of approximately $15,000,000 for this specific airplane.
