N882AC

This entry describes US-registered airframe N882AC, a business jet built in 2004 by Embraer S.A. as an Embraer EMB-135BJ Legacy, serial number 145770. The airframe is owned by the corporation BD ADVISORS LLC, registered in Beaumont, TX, US, and operated in a VIP executive configuration derived from the original type certification seating. The registry notes the aircraft as a US-registered fixed-wing multi-engine executive transport; acquisition by BD ADVISORS LLC represents the most recently reported ownership record for this airframe. Condition and valuation summaries are operator-dependent and not otherwise published in the supplied data.

The cabin of this specific EMB-135BJ is fitted in a VIP executive layout, an operator-configured arrangement that departs from the aircraft's original type capacity of 37 seats to prioritize executive accommodations and amenities. Avionics fitment is reported as operator-dependent but includes a Honeywell Primus 1000 installation in at least some configurations, indicating a glass-cockpit suite typical of operator-upgraded EMB-135s. With a mission range of 1,750 nm and a cruise speed near 430 kts, the airframe is typically suited to medium-range corporate and charter routes from its Beaumont, Texas registration base, performing point-to-point executive transport and regional connectivity. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its twin Rolls-Royce AE3007 engines and operator-specific interior and avionics modifications.

The airframe belongs to the Legacy conversion of the EMB-135 family, which occupies a niche as a medium-range, twin-engine executive transport delivering transregional capability with a service ceiling of 37,000 ft. The combination of 2× Rolls-Royce AE3007 powerplants and a cruise speed of 430 kts positions the type for efficient corporate missions where cabin comfort and range are prioritized. Buyer and charter demand for individual airframes like N882AC typically hinges on maintenance history, interior configuration, and avionics fit—factors that are operator-dependent and consequential for resale. Given the airframe's model year (2004) and customized VIP layout, purchasers and operators focus on engine program status, avionics modernization potential, and cabin refurbishing when assessing lifecycle and market value.
