N384FX Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
N384FX's Embraer Phenom 300 cruises at 453 knots with 2,010 nautical miles of range. The 2x Pratt & Whitney Canada PW535E1 produce 3,360 lbs per side. This performance covers regional missions of 2-3 hours without refueling.
Mission Profile
The Embraer Phenom 300 seats up to 10 passengers in a cabin measuring 17.2 ft long, 5.1 ft wide, and 4.9 ft tall. N384FX delivers speed and efficiency for regional missions where time matters more than cabin volume.
Charter Authorization
N384FX is Part 135 certified for on-demand charter. The Embraer Phenom 300 is one of the most cost-effective jet charter options available. Contact us for availability.
Insider Note
One advantage of the light jet category: single-pilot certification. Many Embraer Phenom 300 variants are approved for single-pilot operations, reducing crew costs. N384FX's specific configuration and operator certificate determine whether single-pilot dispatch applies.
Charter & Acquisition Briefing
Registration N384FX is a 2020 Beechcraft held by . Over 7,600 King Airs have been delivered since 1964. This briefing covers charter economics and market reality.
Fleet Position
Over 7,600 King Airs and Beechcraft twins are in service worldwide. FAA data shows N384FX based in —, . The King Air dominates the U.S. turboprop market: more installed aircraft, more available parts, more qualified mechanics, and more type-rated pilots than any competing turboprop platform.
Charter Availability
N384FX is Part 135 charter authorized. King Air charter rates range from $1,600 to $2,800 per flight hour, the most affordable category in turbine-powered aviation. The King Air serves routes under 800 nm where jet speed is unnecessary but pressurization, weather capability, and twin-engine safety are required.
Market Position
N384FX is a current-generation 2020 King Air 360 or 260 at $7M to $8M (new). The 360/260 feature the Collins Pro Line Fusion touchscreen avionics, autothrottle, and digital pressurization. These aircraft represent 60 years of King Air evolution in the most refined form.
At new pricing, the King Air 360 competes with the Pilatus PC-12 ($5.5M) and Cessna Caravan ($3M). The King Air offers twin-engine safety, more cabin volume, and faster cruise speed. The PC-12 is more fuel-efficient with a single engine. The choice depends on mission requirements: twin-engine operations favor the King Air; single-engine economy favors the PC-12.
Mission Profile
Optimized for short-haul, multi-stop operations where runway length and operating cost matter more than speed. The King Air's PT6A engines are the most reliable turbine powerplants in aviation. Operating costs of $1,200 to $2,800 per hour are 30 to 50% less than light jets for routes under 500 nm.
When to Choose Something Else
Skip the King Air for routes over 800 nm where time matters. At 280 to 340 knots, the King Air adds 30 to 60 minutes versus a light jet on routes over 500 nm. For routes consistently over 600 nm, a Citation or Phenom provides meaningful time savings.
Ownership & Operations
Aircraft ownership in the United States falls under FAA registration requirements. Every U.S.-registered aircraft carries an N-number that links to public records including owner name, address, airworthiness date, and certificate type. The FAA Aircraft Registry maintains this data and updates it as aircraft change hands. Prospective buyers use these records to verify ownership history, lien status, and maintenance compliance before committing to an acquisition.
Pre-Purchase Considerations
Avionics modernization drives both capability and market value. Aircraft with legacy analog instruments trade at significant discounts to those with modern glass cockpits (Garmin G5000, Collins Pro Line Fusion, Honeywell Primus Epic). ADS-B Out compliance is now mandatory in U.S. controlled airspace. Buyers should factor avionics upgrade costs into their acquisition budget when evaluating older airframes.
Charter Market Context
Empty leg pricing offers 25 to 75% discounts on published charter rates. These opportunities arise when an aircraft needs to reposition from a drop-off point back to base or to the next pickup location. The tradeoff is schedule inflexibility: departure time, date, and route are fixed by the operator's existing itinerary. The Jet Finder maintains an empty leg alert system for frequent charter clients.
