N317TT

This airframe, bearing registration N317TT, is a 1980-built Learjet 35A with manufacturer serial number 35-317. The jet is recorded as owned by the corporate entity Inter Island Yachts Inc of Zephyr Cove, NV, US, with operator and home-base activity reflecting that ownership. Its U.S. registration status is US, and the airframe carries an assessed market valuation of $1,137,500, indicative of its maintained condition and age for a late-1970s/early-1980s Learjet 35A. Notable registry activity includes corporate ownership consolidation under Inter Island Yachts Inc., a change that positioned the aircraft for executive transport and ad hoc charter use.

The cabin of this specific airframe is outfitted in a typical seven-place executive layout with club seating and divan options, matching the standard interior configurations common to the Learjet 35A fleet. Operationally the jet supports high-speed, long-range point-to-point missions within its 2,857 nm range and routinely cruises at 418 kts, making it suitable for transcontinental U.S. hops and shorter international legs from its Nevadan base. Avionics fit is not published in the supplied data, but missions for this airframe have centered on corporate transport and private operator use under Inter Island Yachts Inc; maintenance considerations reflect the needs of older turbine airframes—periodic component life-limit compliance and engine shop visits for the Honeywell TFE731-2-2B modules. The cabin arrangements and relatively small seating complement executive shuttles and owner-operator use rather than high-density charter.

The Learjet 35A family occupies a light business jet niche characterized by high cruise speeds and long range for its class, appealing to buyers seeking point-to-point speed and compact executive cabins. Competitors in the era and secondary market include other light jets offering similar mission capability; buyer demand is typically from private corporations and charter operators valuing performance over cabin volume. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 1980 airframe with serial 35-317 and twin TFE731 engines include lifecycle and inspection costs, with market value near $1,137,500 reflecting age, configuration, and remaining calendar/TSO-limited component life.
