N816DK

This airframe, registered as N816DK, is a Beechcraft 400A Beechjet built in 2000 by Raytheon Aircraft Company (Beechcraft) and carries manufacturer serial RK-291. Owned by AIRSEA II LLC, a corporation based in Pompano Beach, FL, US, the jet is recorded on the U.S. civil register and has been operated from that owner’s South Florida base. The record for this specific airframe highlights its late-model 400A configuration and corporate ownership rather than airline or fractional operation. No public record of other ownership transfers or registry encumbrances is presented here.

The cabin for this airframe is typically fitted in a 7–10 passenger executive club layout (typical), providing a short-range corporate transport interior suited to executive missions and private charters. Avionics for the 400A series on this example are typically the Collins Pro Line 4 (typical for 400A series) suite, supporting regional IFR operations and common corporate flight profiles. With a cruise speed of 443 kts and a range of 1,693 nm, the aircraft is configured for coast‑to‑coast and offshore hops from its Pompano Beach, FL operating base, serving point‑to‑point corporate travel and on‑demand charter legs. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would reflect twin JT15D-5 engine support and 400A‑series systems commonality under corporate maintenance programs.

The Beechcraft 400A Beechjet family occupies the light to midsize business jet performance niche with relatively high cruise speeds and trans‑regional range, exemplified by this airframe’s 443 kts cruise and 1,693 nm range. Competing models in mission and size include other light-cabin business jets that emphasize speed and short-field capability. Buyer and charter demand for a 2000‑build 400A typically centers on operators valuing speed and runway performance, while resale and maintenance considerations focus on engine time on wing for the Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-5 engines and avionics standardization such as the Collins Pro Line 4 fit.
