N240JK

The airframe bearing tail number N240JK is a 1998-built Learjet 60, constructor serial 137. The aircraft is owned by BRILAND LLC, Clearwater, FL, US, and is registered in the US; publicly available records indicate this airframe remains under that single LLC ownership. As a late-1990s Learjet 60 example, its market valuation is listed at $2,000,000, reflecting its age and the model’s residual pricing in the pre-owned light-medium business jet segment. Registry activity for this airframe is limited in the provided data, with notable entries confined to its serial and US registration.

The subject airframe configured for 11 seats is typical of the Learjet 60 cabin layout, accommodating a small executive passenger complement on transcontinental or regional flights. With a cruise speed of 436 knots and a company-stated range of 2,405 nautical miles, the aircraft is well suited for point-to-point business missions linking metropolitan centers from its Clearwater, Florida operator base. The twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW305A powerplants, each rated at 4,600 lbf, support high-altitude cruise up to 51,000 feet, reducing trip times and enabling favorable fuel-burn profiles on longer legs. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect standard type-specific tasks associated with late-1990s Learjet 60s and ownership under an LLC structure, though no individual maintenance records were supplied.

The Learjet 60 family occupies a light-medium business jet niche characterized by high cruise speeds and a high-altitude service ceiling, competing historically with midsize offerings in range and cabin size. Typical competitors include earlier models of Cessna Citation midsize jets and other light-medium business aircraft that offer similar mission capabilities. Buyer and charter demand for late-1990s examples tends to emphasize maintenance history, avionics updates, and engine program status; with a listed value of $2,000,000, resale considerations for this airframe will hinge on logbooks, refurbishment, and compliance with any applicable airworthiness directives.
