Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N302EW, is a 1976-built Gates Learjet 36A with serial number 36-024. The aircraft is owned by AERY AVIATION LLC, a limited liability company based in Wilmington, DE, US, and carries a United States registration. The registry records indicate the airframe has operated in at least two distinct roles over its life and was operated in an air‑ambulance configuration under a prior registration. Current valuation records list the airframe at $1,433,452, reflecting its age, avionics and maintenance status typical for late-1970s bizjets. Notable registry activity centers on the change of ownership to the Wilmington-based LLC and prior role changes noted in historic records.
The airframe is commonly outfitted in the Learjet 36A long-range executive configuration, typically a six-passenger executive layout while the registry lists capacity up to ten seats; the entry for this airframe notes it has been used in air‑ambulance service in the past. Specific avionics fit for this serial are not published in the supplied data, so mission equipment details are not available here. Typical mission profiles for this airframe historically include medium-long range executive transfers and medevac/special-mission flights up to the model’s maximum range of 2,857 nm and cruise speed around 418 kts. The Wilmington-based owner suggests operations or management oversight from the northeastern U.S. maintenance infrastructure consistent with a U.S.-registered, corporate-owned Learjet.
The Gates Learjet 36A occupies a niche as a long-range, light business jet with high cruise speed and a 45,000 ft service ceiling, suited to point-to-point executive missions and rapid air‑ambulance deployment when configured. Competing types in its era and market include other light long-range business jets; demand tends to be driven by buyers seeking speed and range in a compact platform. Maintenance and resale considerations for this specific airframe reflect its 1976 manufacture date and recorded usage history, factors that influence value and buyer interest despite the solid performance envelope.
