N946HC

The airframe bearing tail number N946HC is a 2004 Gulfstream G100 (IAI 1125 / Astra SPX) built as serial 151. It is registered in the United States and is owned by HARRISON CONTRACTING CO INC, a corporation based in Villa Rica, GA, US, which serves as its principal operator/home base. The airframe’s registry records indicate a steady corporate ownership track without publicly disclosed ownership transfers, and valuation and condition highlights are not published in available data.

The cabin of this Gulfstream G100 is configured to seat 19 passengers, aligning with typical corporate and charter layouts that balance seating density with transcontinental capability. This specific airframe is fitted with avionics typical for the G100 series, notably the Collins Pro Line 4 suite, supporting advanced navigation, flight management, and integrated systems monitoring for crew operations. Mission profiles for N946HC are consistent with light business jet use—regional to long-range point-to-point trips up to the aircraft’s published 2,949 nm range—often operated from its corporate base in Villa Rica, GA. Maintenance considerations follow the G100’s established schedules for Honeywell TFE731 series engines and airframe-specific inspections; no unique modifications or unusual equipment fitments are recorded for this airframe in the provided data.

The Gulfstream G100 (Astra SPX / IAI 1125) occupies the light-to-midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental range, cruise speeds near 459 kts and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, powered by twin TFE731-40R turbofans. It competes with legacy light-cabin jets from manufacturers such as Cessna and Bombardier in owner-flown and charter markets where cabin flexibility and range are valued. Buyer and charter demand tends to favor well-documented maintenance histories and avionics suites like the Collins Pro Line 4; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe follow typical vintage-2000s business-jet cycles, with emphasis on engine time, avionics upgrades, and corrosion/structural inspections.
