N155SJ

The airframe bearing tail number N155SJ is a 1984-built Gates Learjet 55, serial 102, presently registered in the United States. The airframe is recorded as owned by LOPEZ FABIO, an individual based in Denver, NC, US, a notable transfer that re-established the aircraft on a U.S. civil registry. Maintenance and registry records for this specific airframe indicate it is valued at $578,874, reflecting its age, configuration, and market position among mid-life business jets. No other prior operators or notable incidents are published in the provided data.

This Learjet 55 airframe is configured in a typical executive cabin layout accommodating 6–8 pax in club seating with an enclosed aft lavatory and a small galley, while retaining a higher-density certificated arrangement permitting up to 13 seats for maximal passenger carriage. Collins-based avionics suites are commonly fitted on Lear 55 airframes and may be present on this example, though specific upgrade status can vary by installation. Typical missions for the type and this individual airframe would include medium‑range executive travel and on-demand charter runs across continental routes consistent with a 2,244 nm range and cruise of 419 kts, operating from its owner/operator base in Denver, NC, US. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the TFE731 engine family and systems common to Gates Learjet Corp designs.

The Gates Learjet 55 occupies a mid-size business jet niche offering high cruise speeds and high operating ceilings—this example’s 51,000 ft ceiling and 419 kts cruise reflect that performance envelope. Competing models in the same era and market position include other light-to-mid-size business jets with similar range and cabin-density options; buyers and charter operators typically value the Lear 55 for speed and climb performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 1984 airframe center on engine TBO and avionics upgrade paths (Collins-suite commonality), which together influence marketability and the recorded value of $578,874.
