N30MR

This entry covers airframe N30MR, an Israel Aircraft Industries 1124 Westwind built in 1978 with manufacturer serial number 225. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is registered to BERGEN FOOD ENTERPRISES INC, a corporation based in Norman, OK, US that is the current recorded owner and operator/home base. There are no widely reported or notable registry actions beyond the existing U.S. registration and ownership; detailed historical transaction records are not published. The airframe’s documented market valuation is $350,000, reflecting its age and configuration.

The airframe carries an executive cabin layout configured for 2 crew + 7–10 passengers, typically arranged with a forward galley, seating cluster(s) amidship, and an enclosed aft lavatory as standard for this Westwind configuration. Avionics fit for this specific airframe is not published; operational use would normally support regional and transcontinental business missions within its 2,390 nm range and high-speed cruise of 390 kts, frequently on charter or company transport duties from its base in Norman, OK. Maintenance considerations for this individual airplane center on the Garrett/Honeywell TFE731 turbofan engines and aging airframe systems; service history and recent inspections are not published for this registration.

The Israel Aircraft Industries 1124 Westwind family occupies the late 1960s–1970s light-to-midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability and a relatively high cruise speed and service ceiling for its era. Comparable models in the used market include older Learjet variants and early Citation models; buyer and charter demand for late-1970s Westwinds tends to focus on utility and low acquisition cost rather than modern avionics or VIP amenities. Given the 1978 manufacture year and the listed market value of $350,000, prospective operators should weigh engine life, interior refurbishment needs, and the availability of parts and avionics upgrades when considering acquisition or resale.
