About N183DT

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

This airframe, registered in the United States as N183DT, is a Beech 390 Premier I built in 2004 with manufacturer serial RB-116 by Raytheon Aircraft Company (Beechcraft lineage). The airplane is completed with a typical six-place executive cabin and is fitted with Pro Line 21 avionics. Publicly available information on the ownership timeline and specific operator or home base for this airframe is Not published. Likewise, notable registry actions and current valuation or condition summaries are Not published.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin of this specific Premier I is outfitted in a typical six-place executive layout for forward-cabin passenger carriage, supporting short to mid-range corporate missions. Avionics are installed as the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 suite, enabling advanced flight management and situational awareness appropriate for single-pilot operation in many operator configurations. With a maximum cruise of 426 kts and a range of 1,072 nm, typical missions for this airframe would include business hops and regional point-to-point travel; detailed operator base and route logs for N183DT are Not published. Maintenance considerations follow the twin Williams FJ44 turbofan architecture inherent to this airframe, but specific maintenance history for RB-116 is Not published.

Model & Market Context

The Beech 390 Premier I occupies the light jet niche as a higher-performing, composite-fuselage entry aimed at owner-operators and charter operators seeking a six-seat executive cabin with jet cruise speeds. With twin Williams FJ44 engines delivering 2,300 lbf each and a certified ceiling of 41,000 ft, it competes with light jets such as the CitationJet/Bravo series and other light-cabin entrants. Buyers and charter operators typically value the Premier I for its combination of speed and cabin comfort within the light-jet sector; resale and maintenance considerations center on engine time, avionics configuration such as Pro Line 21, and documented airframe history, which for this serial RB-116 is Not published.
