ROUGH RANGE

What N280QS might be worth, and where it’s heading.

A rough range: Radar's value model doesn't cover the Embraer Legacy 450 / Praetor 500 on its own yet. From Radar's listing-based estimates for business jets of similar engine thrust and age. The Bombardier Challenger 350 curve gives the shape of the forecast, and the range is widened to match. Not an appraisal.
