N886DB

This entry covers airframe N886DB, an Embraer-built light jet delivered in 2012 with manufacturer serial number 50000283. The aircraft is a factory-built Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 produced by Embraer Executive Aircraft Inc and is registered in the United States as N886DB. Owned by AIRCRAFT HOLDING AND LEASING LLC, a corporate lessor based in Sarasota, FL, US, the airframe is presented in typical leasing condition with an assessed market value of $4,100,000. Registry records indicate this airframe has operated under corporate ownership rather than a single private owner, with no other notable public registry actions disclosed.

The airframe’s interior conforms to a typical executive four-place layout within an 11 ft cabin, with the factory option to accommodate up to six occupants by using a belted lavatory or a side-facing seat. Avionics were originally fitted with the Garmin G1000, while later EX variants of the model were offered with the Garmin G3000 upgrade; this airframe retains the original fit as delivered. Operationally, N886DB is suited to short-to-medium range point-to-point missions such as regional business travel or on-demand charter hops within the continental U.S., taking advantage of the jet’s cruise speed and range. Maintenance considerations reflect typical light-jet practices for twin-PW617F-E installations and lessor-driven cyclic scheduling.

The Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 occupies the entry-level very light jet niche, offering high cruise speed and a 41,000 ft ceiling for efficient regional operations. Competing types in this segment include other VLJs and light-cabin jets that emphasize owner/operators and fractional or charter demand. For a 2012 airframe like N886DB, buyer and charter interest will hinge on total time, engine cycles, avionics fit relative to G3000-equipped examples, and the maintenance status maintained by the corporate lessor; these factors strongly influence resale and lease rates in the current market.
