A new Nextant Aerospace 400XTi is listed at $7 million
The Nextant 400XTi is a remanufactured and upgraded version of the Beechjet 400A, which was originally produced in the 1980s.
The Beechjet 400A was designed to compete with the popular Learjet and Citation models of the period.
Nextant Aerospace is part of Directional Aviation, the holding company that includes Flexjet, Sentient Jets, FXAir, PrivateFly, and Constant Aviation, among others.
It is a private jet aircraft remanufacturing company based in Cleveland, Ohio.
It began developing the 400XTi in 2007.
The company’s goal was to create a more efficient, modern, and cost-effective version of the Beechjet 400A.
The remanufacturing process involves stripping down the aircraft to its frame and rebuilding it with new components and advanced technologies, including new avionics, engines, and winglets, resulting in a significant improvement in performance and efficiency.
The first 400XTi was completed in 2010, and it received certification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in 2011.
In 2015, Nextant Aerospace launched the 400XTi Extended Range (ER) version, which features additional fuel tanks.
The 400XTi seats five-to-seven passengers in a standard configuration, with a small galley in the front and a fully enclosed lavatory at the rear of the cabin.
The Nextant 400XTi has a range of 1,527 nautical miles.
A newly remanufactured Nextant XTi sells for around $6 million.
