Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N204RT, is a 2000-build Learjet 31A with serial number 204. The aircraft was manufactured by Learjet Inc and is owned by CALIFORNIA MOTORSPORTS GROUP INC, a corporation based in San Diego, CA, US; the corporate ownership constitutes the primary recorded stewardship and places the operator/home base in the San Diego area. The ship is registered in the US civil register and no public record of additional ownership transfers or notable registry actions is provided. Condition and valuation specifics are not published; maintenance history and current market valuation remain with the registered owner or their designated records.
The cabin is fitted in the typical six‑place executive club layout associated with the model; operator-specific fit may vary but this airframe is documented with the model-typical configuration that supports up to 10 seats in various arrangements. Avionics fit is not specified in the available data; therefore operational profiles are inferred from the type standard—short- to medium-range business jet missions including corporate point-to-point flights within a roughly 1,290 nm radius at high cruise speeds near 458 kts and flight levels approaching 51,000 ft. Based from San Diego under corporate ownership, typical uses would include executive transport and on-demand charter operations; maintenance considerations align with the Learjet 31A fleet standard, particularly inspection and overhaul cycles for the twin TFE731 turbofan engines.
The Learjet 31A family occupies the light business jet niche, prized for high cruise speed and a high service ceiling, exemplified here by a cruise around 458 kts and ceiling to 51,000 ft. Competing models in the period and market include other light jets offering similar mission profiles; buyers and charter operators typically value the type for short-notice executive travel and time-sensitive routing. Resale and maintenance considerations focus on engine TBO, avionics modernization, and interior refurbishment given the age (year 2000) and typical corporate usage; these factors materially influence marketability and lifecycle costs for this specific airframe.
