N853AE

This airframe, registered as N853AE, is an Embraer-built regional jet of the Embraer EMB-135KL family, manufactured by Embraer S.A. in 2003 with serial number 145742. The aircraft is owned by CORPORATE FLIGHT MANAGEMENT INC DBA, a corporate owner based in Smyrna, TN, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe is recorded in a 37-seat regional configuration and operates as a fixed-wing multi-engine type; its documented history centers on corporate ownership and operation from its Tennessee base rather than multiple operators or registries.

The cabin for N853AE is recorded in a 37-seat regional configuration, reflecting a high-density layout suitable for short-to-medium sector passenger transport or corporate shuttle missions. Based on ownership and recorded seating, typical operations for this airframe would include regional charter, corporate shuttle, or third-party regional services under the corporate operator from its Smyrna, Tennessee base. Avionics fit and specific interior amenities are not published in the provided data, but the 135KL variant’s configuration implies a focus on efficient regional use with maintenance and operational considerations aligned to Rolls-Royce AE 3007 series turbofan support. Ongoing serviceability will depend on standard regional-jet cycles and the owner’s maintenance program.

The Embraer EMB-135KL sits in the regional jet niche offering roughly 30–40 seat capacity with trans-regional range and cruise performance suitable for high-frequency short-haul routes; N853AE exemplifies this role with a 1,650 nm range and 450 kts cruise. Competing models in the market historically include other small regional jets and high-capacity turboprops; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe will focus on engine support for the Rolls-Royce AE 3007 family, airframe hours relative to a 2003 build, and the desirability of a 37-seat cabin in charter and regional markets.
