Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N99XG, is an Eclipse EA500 (Eclipse 500) built in 2007 with manufacturer serial number 000055. The aircraft is owned by TAK AVIATION LLC (an LLC corporation) based in Wilmington, DE, US, and is registered in the US. The EA500 airframe is recorded with standard serial registry information and carries a market valuation of $1,500,000; condition highlights are limited to the valuation metric supplied. Ownership is held by TAK AVIATION LLC in Wilmington, DE, and no other historic registry actions are published in the provided data.
The cabin configuration for this specific EA500 follows the small VLJ executive layout, typically described as a 1+4 / 4–6 executive seating arrangement with limited baggage capacity (approximately 16 cubic feet). Avionics fit on this airframe are the Avio glass cockpit variants noted as Avio (Avio NG / IS&S Avio), providing integrated digital flight displays common to the type. Typical mission profiles for an aircraft with 1,125 nm range and 335 kts cruise include short- to medium-range business trips and charter sectors where fast point-to-point travel and access to smaller fields are priorities. Operator base at Wilmington, DE, US suggests regional use from East Coast hubs; maintenance considerations reflect the twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW610F-A small turbofan powerplants and the avionics support for Avio systems.
The Eclipse EA500 family occupies the very light jet niche as a fixed‑wing multi‑engine design emphasizing efficiency, lower operating costs, and single-pilot capability relative to larger business jets. With a service ceiling of 41,000 ft and cruise near 335 kts, the model competes in the VLJ/entry-level business jet market against contemporaries offering similar speed and range. Buyer and charter demand for the type has historically targeted owner‑operators and small charter operators; resale and maintenance considerations include support for the PW610F-A engines and the Avio/IS&S avionics ecosystem, factors that influence retained value around the listed $1,500,000 for this airframe.
