N809AE

This airframe, registered as N809AE, is an Embraer-built regional jet delivered in 2001 with manufacturer serial number 145521. The airframe is an Embraer ERJ-140LR (EMB-135KL) variant, and its U.S. registry lists CORPORATE FLIGHT MANAGEMENT INC DBA as owner and operator based in Smyrna, TN, US. The aircraft is recorded on the U.S. registry and carries the typical ERJ-140 equipment fit for regional operations; no major historical registry events are published beyond its current corporate ownership. Condition and valuation notes are not published in the supplied data.

The aircraft is configured in a regional single-aisle layout with the registry showing a 37-seat configuration; this includes a forward galley and a rear lavatory consistent with typical ERJ-140 layouts. Avionics fit is listed as the Honeywell Primus 1000, a common integrated flight deck for the ERJ family that supports regional airline and corporate shuttle operations. With a 1,650 nm range and a cruise speed around 450 kts, this airframe is suited to short- to medium-range regional routes and corporate charter sectors originating from its base in Smyrna, TN. Maintenance considerations align with the AE 3007 engine family and Embraer regional-jet support programs; specific maintenance history and unique on-board amenities are not published in the provided data.

The Embraer ERJ-140LR (EMB-135KL) occupies a niche for 30–40 seat regional jets, trading higher frequency and lower trip costs against turboprops on short sectors. Competing types in this segment historically include smaller regional jets from Bombardier and larger turboprops from ATR and De Havilland; the ERJ-140LR’s performance—450 kts cruise and 37,000 ft ceiling—offers speed and altitude capability that appeals to regional carriers and corporate shuttle operators. Buyer and charter demand typically focuses on airframe and engine life, avionics standardization like the Honeywell Primus 1000, and the availability of Rolls‑Royce AE 3007 support; resale and maintenance considerations reflect the age of this 2001-built airframe and its accumulated cycles rather than model capability alone.
