Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N9WW is a 1997-built Beechjet 400A (Beechcraft 400A), serial number RK-142, manufactured by Raytheon Aircraft Company (Beechcraft). The airframe is owned and operated by Beech Transportation Inc, a corporate owner based in Eden Prairie, MN, US, and is registered in the US registry. The aircraft’s corporate ownership appears to have been stable under that entity, with no additional ownership transfers published in the supplied data. At the time of record the airframe is valued at $1,525,000, reflecting its age, configuration and market position within the light business jet sector.

The cabin in this airframe is outfitted in a typical executive layout for the type: a 6-passenger executive double-club arrangement with a belted aft lavatory, an executive configuration common to the Beechjet 400A. With seating for six and a long-range light-jet mission profile, this airframe is suitable for corporate point‑to‑point missions and short charter rotations within the continental United States from its base in Eden Prairie, MN, US. Specific avionics fit and maintenance records are not published in the provided data; routine attention for the model typically focuses on turbine hot-section inspections and legacy systems support typical of late‑1990s airframes. The combination of corporate ownership and executive interior implies a usage pattern oriented toward business travel rather than heavy charter utilization.

The Beechjet 400A (Beechcraft 400A) family occupies the light, high‑speed business jet niche, offering relatively high cruise speed and altitude capability for short to mid‑range missions. Competitors historically include other light jets of the era; buyers often target this model for its strong cruise performance (449 kts) and 45,000 ft ceiling. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 1997 airframe like RK-142 focus on engine life‑limits, avionics upgrades and corrosion/structural inspection status; these factors contribute to the recorded market value of $1,525,000.
