FAQ

Legacy 500 questions

How much does a Legacy 500 cost?

Radar's rough range is about $13M to $20M for a 2020 and $7.2M to $16M for a 2012. From Radar's listing-based estimates for business jets of similar engine thrust and age. These are rough ranges, not appraisals: hours, engines, damage history, equipment and the logbooks move the price of any one aircraft.

What affects the price of a Legacy 500?

What moves the price of any one Legacy 500: total time and engine time, engine program enrollment, damage history, avionics and equipment, and complete logbooks. Build year sets the baseline shown on this page; a Legacy 500 with high hours, an engine near overhaul or gaps in its records sells below it, and one with low time, recent inspections and full records above it.

Where can I find a Legacy 500 for sale?

Radar does not list aircraft for sale. It tracks all 45 US-registered Legacy 500s by tail number, each with its registration record and a value estimate, so you can check a listing against the value of its build year and look up the aircraft's own history before you call.

How many Legacy 500s are there?

45 Legacy 500s are on the US civil aircraft register (FAA file of October 2026), built 2012 to 2020. Aircraft registered in other countries are not counted. Radar has a page for each US registration.

What are the Legacy 500's specs?

As published: up to 12 passengers, a range of 3,125 nm (3,596 statute miles), a high-speed cruise of 466 ktas (536 mph), a ceiling of 45,000 ft, a cabin 6 ft high, 6 ft 10 in wide and 2 × Honeywell HTF7500E engines. A given aircraft varies with its completion, weight and modifications.

How far can a Legacy 500 fly?

The Legacy 500's published range is 3,125 nautical miles (3,596 statute miles), with long-range cruise, 4 passengers, NBAA IFR reserves with a 200 nm alternate (Embraer brochure). Winds, payload, cruise speed and the reserves a flight carries change what a given trip can do.

Can a Legacy 500 cross the Atlantic?

Yes. New York to London is about 2,986 nm, inside the Legacy 500's published range of 3,125 nm, so the crossing can be flown nonstop, though headwinds or a full cabin can force a fuel stop, especially westbound.

Can a Legacy 500 fly to Hawaii?

Yes. Los Angeles to Honolulu is about 2,217 nm, well inside the Legacy 500's published range of 3,125 nm.

How fast is the Legacy 500?

The Legacy 500 cruises at up to 466 knots true airspeed (about 536 mph), and its maximum operating Mach number is 0.83, as published.

How high can a Legacy 500 fly?

The Legacy 500 is certified to 45,000 feet. Heavy aircraft climb there in steps as they burn fuel.

How many passengers does a Legacy 500 seat?

Up to 12 passengers, the most the type is published for. Many aircraft are completed with fewer, larger seats, so a given Legacy 500 may seat fewer.

How big is the Legacy 500 cabin?

6 ft 0 in high and 6 ft 10 in wide, with 110 cubic feet of baggage space, as published.

Who owns Legacy 500s?
