N991ML

This entry concerns business jet registration N991ML, a 2008-built example of the Hawker Beechcraft 390 Premier 1A, serial RB-254. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by N991ML LLC, an LLC based in Baxley, GA, US, which appears as the primary operator/home base in registry records. The airframe's registration and ownership are recorded to a single-member LLC, reflecting a common structure for light business jet ownership and operation. Publicly reported equipment upgrades to the avionics suite suggest attention to mid-life avionics modernization, while the aircraft otherwise retains the standard Premier 1A executive configuration and capability profile for a 2008 production example.

The cabin in this airframe conforms to the executive Premier 1A layout, typically an enclosed lavatory and an executive 6–8 place club seating arrangement; the reported fitment here is an executive 6–8 place club layout with enclosed lavatory (typical Premier 1A layout). Avionics are fitted with a Collins Pro Line 21 with Airspace Modernization Package, and an upgraded IFIS/DBU-5000 has been reported, indicating improved flight information and database management capabilities. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft type, and this example in particular, would include short- to medium-range business trips within the continental United States and to nearby international destinations, leveraging the aircraft’s cruise speed and range while operating from smaller executive airports around its base in Baxley, GA. Maintenance considerations align with light business-jet practices, with emphasis on engine and avionics lifecycle support commensurate with a 2008 airframe.

The Hawker Beechcraft 390 Premier 1A occupies the light-cabin, high-speed end of the entry-level business jet market, offering a composite fuselage and a high cruise speed around 451 kts versus many contemporaries. Competitors in this segment include light jets from manufacturers such as Cessna and Embraer offering similar mission capability. For buyers and charter operators, resale considerations for a 2008 Premier 1A like RB-254 focus on hours/cycles, maintenance history, and avionics upgrades—attributes directly influenced by reported equipment enhancements such as the IFIS/DBU-5000 and the Pro Line 21 modernization.
