Model & Market Context
This entry covers a single Gates Learjet airframe, registered as N312LG, built in 1982 with manufacturer serial number 35-489. The airframe was manufactured by Gates Learjet Corporation and is owned by JET MASTERS LLC, a corporation (LLC) based in Englewood, CO, US. The aircraft is registered in the US and is recorded with a market valuation of $666,125; no other registry actions or prior owners are provided in the data. Its status as a 1982-built Learjet 35A places it among long-serving light business jets still operated by specialized charter and corporate owners.
The cabin of this specific Learjet 35A typically follows a club/divan layout, providing 6–8 passenger executive seating with certification for up to 10 seats in total. Avionics fit for this airframe is not published in the provided data. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, based on its range and cruise performance, include medium-haul executive transport and on-demand charter missions out of its operator base in Englewood, Colorado. Maintenance considerations for this airframe derive from its 1982 vintage and the twin TFE731 turbofan configuration, which remain common in the type but require lifecycle management, parts support and engine inspections commensurate with an airframe of this age.
The Gates Learjet 35A occupies the light business jet niche, offering high cruise speed and transcontinental range for its class. Its contemporaries include other 1970s–1980s light business jets that prioritize speed and climb performance over cabin volume. Buyer and charter demand tends to favor well-maintained examples with current avionics and strong engine time, factors that directly influence resale value—here reflected in the reported $666,125 valuation for this specific serial 35-489. Maintenance depth and parts availability for the TFE731 series are key resale considerations for prospective operators.
