N959BZ

This airframe, registered as N959BZ, is an Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100EV built in 2018 with manufacturer serial 50000393. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by the Montana-based corporation ELEVATE US LLC of Helena, MT. Since manufacture it has remained in civil executive service under corporate ownership, with no additional registry events published beyond standard US registration. The airframe's estimated market value is $4,250,000, reflecting a relatively recent build and the Phenom 100EV’s retained utility in light executive operations.

The cabin of N959BZ is fitted in a typical four-place club executive layout with a single-pilot option and a belted lavatory option, accommodating six passengers in normal configuration. The flight deck is equipped with the Prodigy Touch flight deck specific to the Phenom 100EV, supporting single-pilot operation and modern avionics suites common to Embraer’s light-jet line. Operated by a Helena, Montana-based corporate owner, missions for this airframe are consistent with short-to-medium range executive transport, business travel and on-demand corporate hops within the continental United States and neighboring regions. Maintenance considerations align with PW600-series engine support and Embraer-specific inspection intervals; the aircraft’s 2018 build year positions it within early-life maintenance cycles with typical OEM support availability.

The Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100EV occupies the light-jet niche, offering jet speed and higher service ceiling than turboprops while maintaining lower operating costs than larger midsize jets. Competitors in the aircraft’s class include other light jets offering similar ranges and seating, where buyer demand often favors modern avionics such as the Prodigy Touch and single-pilot capability. For resale and charter markets, a 2018 Phenom 100EV like N959BZ typically benefits from strong type support and predictable maintenance profiles, though market value is influenced by engine cycles, avionics options and overall interior condition.
