N993JC

The airframe bearing registration N993JC is an Embraer-built business jet of the Embraer EMB-135BJ Legacy 600 family, completed in 2008 with manufacturer serial number 14501064. Manufactured by Embraer S.A., this airframe is recorded as owned by JUNIPER AVIATION II LLC, an LLC based in Coral Gables, FL, US, and is on the U.S. civil registry. The transition to corporate ownership under JUNIPER AVIATION II LLC is the principal publicized registry action for this airframe. Recent listings and public valuation data place the aircraft at an estimated market value of $7,500,000, with condition and equipment reported in sale-oriented sources rather than formal type records.

This specific airframe is registered with a 37-seat high-density configuration (registry entry) indicating a high-capacity cabin layout relative to typical Legacy 600 corporate interiors. Avionics fit reported on sales and listing data indicate a Primus Elite (DU‑875) suite as installed or advertised, reflecting a modernized flightdeck common to retrofit programs for the platform. Typical missions for this configuration would prioritize high-capacity charter or corporate transport on medium-range sectors within the aircraft’s 3,400 nm reach and cruise speed of 424 kts, operating from bases consistent with its U.S. registry and owner location. Maintenance and operational considerations for this airframe align with the Legacy 600 program and Rolls‑Royce AE 3007A1E engine support networks.

The Embraer EMB-135BJ Legacy 600 occupies a niche for longer-range, medium-capacity executive and charter operations, combining regional-jet structure with business-jet outfitting. Competing types in the secondary market include derivatives of the Bombardier Challenger and certain Gulfstream light-medium jets, where buyers weigh cabin density, range, and retrofit potential. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect age (completed 2008), engine support for AE 3007A1E powerplants, avionics retrofit history such as the reported Primus Elite (DU‑875) fit, and the high-density 37-seat interior that can limit direct corporate appeal but support charter revenue models.
