N118RJ

This airframe, registered as N118RJ, is an IAI-built business jet of the IAI 1124 Westwind type, manufactured in 1976 with serial number 188. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by Dodson International Parts Inc, a corporation based in Rantoul, KS, US. The airframe is documented as a corporate-owned example, with its current valuation listed at $350,000, reflecting its age and market position as a late-1970s Westwind derivative. Operator and home-base details correspond to the owner's location in Rantoul, Kansas, and registry records show it operating under U.S. registration.

The subject airframe typically carries a cabin arranged for 2 crew + 7–10 passengers (typical executive layout), consistent with executive transport configurations of the Westwind family. With a long-range capability of 2,390 nm and a cruise speed near 420 kts, the aircraft is suited to transcontinental and regional corporate missions under its corporate owner. Based at the owner’s location in Rantoul, KS, operations are likely oriented toward business transport, parts movement, and asset support roles aligned with the owning company’s stated business. Specific avionics fit, interior appointments, and recent maintenance history are not published in the supplied data set.

The IAI 1124 Westwind occupies a light to mid-size business jet niche for operators seeking moderate range and high-altitude capability, demonstrated here by a service ceiling of 45,000 ft and twin TFE731-3D powerplants. Built in 1976, this particular airframe’s market value of $350,000 reflects lifecycle, vintage avionics retrofit needs, and maintenance considerations typical for late-production Westwinds. Prospective buyers or charter operators would weigh the aircraft’s proven cruise and range performance against anticipated refurbishment and parts requirements for a 1976-built jet.
