Model & Market Context
This article describes a single airframe, registered as N321AV, a Beechcraft C90 King Air built in 1981 with manufacturer serial number LJ-942. The aircraft is classified as fixed-wing multi-engine and carries a US registration (US); its recorded owner is Aircraft Guaranty Corp Trustee, a corporation based in Onalaska, TX, US, which is the current owner on file. There are no additional published registry actions or historical transfers beyond the current ownership listing. Valuation records list the airframe at $1,275,000, reflecting its age, configuration and market position.
The on-board accommodation for N321AV follows a typical executive King Air layout with 6–7 executive seats (forward club), a small galley/vestibule and aft baggage capacity of approximately 48 cu ft, optimized for corporate or owner-flown missions. With a cruise speed of 226 kts and a maximum practical range of 1,260 nm, the aircraft is well suited to short- to medium-haul executive transport, positioning it for point-to-point flights within the continental United States from its operator base in Onalaska, TX, US. Avionics fit and specific avionics upgrades are not published for this particular serial, and standard maintenance considerations for PT6A-powered King Airs—engine hot-section inspections, propeller overhauls and corrosion control on older airframes—apply to this airframe.
The Beechcraft C90 King Air occupies a long-established niche as a light, twin-turboprop providing versatile regional executive and utility transport with reliable PT6A propulsion. Competing models include earlier King Air variants and light turboprops from other manufacturers; buyers often value the type for dispatch reliability and cabin flexibility. At a listed value of $1,275,000 for a 1981 serial LJ-942, resale and operating-cost considerations hinge on engine TBO status, recent avionics upgrades and completed maintenance log items typical of airframes of this vintage.
