N218NB

This airframe, N218NB, is a 1998 Learjet 31 manufactured by Learjet Inc. and identified by serial number 31-146. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by the corporation David L Samani MD Inc, based in Lincoln, Nebraska, US. The registry entry for this airframe documents a typical corporate ownership profile and indicates a 6-place executive cabin layout while listing a maximum seating capacity of up to 10; no other notable sales or registration events are recorded in the supplied data. Condition and valuation specifics are not published in the supplied dataset.

The subject airframe is configured in a typical executive 6-place layout but the registry lists up to 10 seats, reflecting either standard certification limits versus common operator interiors or optional seating arrangements. The small cabin offers a forward galley and the option of an aft lavatory, consistent with light business-jet executive missions such as short- to medium-haul corporate hops, air ambulance, or ad hoc charter where speed and point-to-point capability are priorities. Avionics are described as typical Bendix/King EFIS displays paired with a KFC 3100 autopilot — a common upgrade or fit on later Learjet 31A examples — supporting precision navigation and reduced crew workload. With twin Honeywell TFE731 engines, maintenance considerations follow light-jet norms for hot-section inspections and TBO cycles typical to the engine type; no specific maintenance history is provided.

The Learjet 31 family occupies the high-speed, light-cabin end of the corporate jet market, prized for high cruise speed and a 51,000 ft service ceiling that enables efficient, weather-avoidant routings. Competing models include other light jets from the late 1990s and early 2000s offering similar mission profiles; buyers and charter operators seeking fast point-to-point transport often evaluate airframes on avionics fit, engine TBO status, and cabin configuration. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe specifically will hinge on documented maintenance, engine cycles on the Honeywell TFE731-2B engines, and the choice of avionics/autopilot upgrades such as the KFC 3100.
