N981CE

This entry documents airframe N981CE, a 2012-built Hawker 900XP with manufacturer serial HA-0211 constructed by Hawker Beechcraft Corp. The airframe is listed to corporate owner EAGLE SHARES LLC (co-owned: DAY HAWK LLC; ACCIDENT FUND HOLDINGS INC), based in Waterford, MI, US, and is registered in the US. Co-ownership by DAY HAWK LLC and ACCIDENT FUND HOLDINGS INC is noted in the registry record. Valuation records indicate an approximate market value of $4,800,000 for the airframe in its current configuration.

The cabin of N981CE is fitted in a typical executive club arrangement for the type, described as an 8–9 place layout with a forward galley, belted aft lavatory and in‑flight baggage access. Avionics are the type-standard Collins Pro Line 21 suite for the 900XP, providing integrated flight management, communications and standard IFR capability for corporate and charter operations. With a long-range capability of 2,733 nm and a cruise of 430 kts, this airframe is typically employed on medium-to-long-range business missions and charter sectors from its Waterford, MI operator base. Maintenance considerations align with standard Hawker 900XP support, including hot-section and accessory work for the Honeywell TFE731 series and Pro Line 21 avionics upkeep.

The Hawker 900XP occupies the mid-size business jet niche, offering transcontinental range and a high single-flight-pax capacity within its class. Competing airframes include late-model midsize jets that emphasize cabin comfort and range; the 900XP’s combination of 430 kt cruise and 2,733 nm range keeps it competitive for owners seeking performance without the acquisition cost of larger long-range types. Resale and maintenance considerations for N981CE reflect typical mid-life program issues: engine cycle status for the TFE731-50R, avionics service life for Pro Line 21, and market demand for well-equipped, corporate-configured examples at approximately $4.8M.
