N426SA

This entry covers the specific airframe bearing registration N426SA, a factory-series Learjet 45 with manufacturer serial number 45-426. Build year is not published for this individual airframe; it is owned and operated by the corporate entity SUPERIOR AMBULANCE AVIATION INC, based in Elmhurst, IL, US, and carries a United States registration. The airframe’s valuation is listed at $3,400,000, reflecting market position for a mission-configurable Learjet 45 in operational condition. No public record of significant registry actions or title transfers beyond current corporate ownership is provided in the supplied data.

The cabin of this airframe follows the standard Learjet 45 arrangement: a typical eight-passenger double-club layout with a forward galley and aft lavatory, configured to accommodate up to 8 occupants. Avionics fitted to this airframe are the standard Honeywell Primus 1000 suite for the Learjet 45 series, supporting typical IFR and long-range business-jet operations. Operated by SUPERIOR AMBULANCE AVIATION INC from Elmhurst, IL, the aircraft is well suited to rapid point-to-point missions within its 1,710 nm range and cruise speeds near 445 kts; given the owner’s corporate identity, operational profiles likely emphasize time-sensitive transport and medical or charter duties. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include standard TFE731-20 engine support and avionics lifecycle management for the Primus 1000 suite.

The Learjet 45 family occupies a mid-size light business jet niche offering transcontinental capability for shorter payloads, combining high cruise speeds (around 445 kts) and a service ceiling to 51,000 ft. Competitors in its class historically include light-to-midsize jets that balance speed, range and operating costs. For buyers or operators, considerations center on engine program status for the Honeywell TFE731-20s, avionics upgrade paths from the Primus 1000, and resale dynamics tied to mission configuration; the listed valuation of $3,400,000 situates this airframe within the used-market band for service-ready Learjet 45s with medical or corporate interior arrangements.
