A rough market estimate compiled from public listings and market reports for the type.

Overview

The airframe bearing tail number N188JF is a Beechcraft 400A (Beechjet 400A / Hawker 400A) with manufacturer designation Raytheon / Beechcraft and serial number RK-446. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by Hawkerblue LLC, a corporation based in Santa Ana, CA, US. Operational history and specific registry action notes are not published in the supplied data.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin for this airframe is outfitted in a typical 7-10 place executive layout with a forward galley, mid/forward club seating, and an aft lavatory, supporting corporate or charter passenger configurations up to the stated seating capacity. Avionics fit for this aircraft is the Collins Pro Line 4, a common original or retrofit fit that supports advanced flight management and situational awareness for the platform. Typical missions for this airframe, given the published 1,519 nm range and 449 kts cruise, include short to mid-range executive transport and charter work from its base of operations in Southern California.

Model & Market Context

The Beechcraft 400A airframe represented here, the Beechcraft 400A (Beechjet 400A / Hawker 400A), occupies a light business jet niche characterized by twin JT15D-series engines, transcontinental-capable cruise speed, and high-altitude capability to 45,000 ft. The combination of a 449 kts cruise, a 1,519 nm range, and executive cabin layout targets buyers and charter operators seeking a compact, fast light jet with typical 7-10 passenger accommodation.

Warm natural light fills a low, narrow Beechjet 400A cabin with seven cream leather chairs, round windows, wood veneer cabinetry and a flat central aisle viewed looking aft.
