Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N329TJ, a Gates-built Learjet registered in the US with serial number 55-120. Build year information is Not published. Ownership timeline and operator/home base details are Not published; no public registry events or notable transfers are recorded in the supplied data. Condition and valuation details are Not published.
The airframe is outfitted in a typical executive cabin layout supporting 4–8 passengers, with final configuration dependent on interior fit selected by the owner. Avionics fit and specific cabin amenities are Not published; the cabin description reflects the common executive installations for this model rather than a unique outfitting for this serial. With a cruise speed of 458 kts and a maximum practical range near 2,244 nm, the aircraft is suited to medium-to-long-range point-to-point executive missions where fast cruise and high-altitude capability are priorities. Operator base and maintenance history for this specific registration are Not published; routine upkeep would be expected to focus on the twin Garrett TFE731-3A-2B turbofans and high-altitude systems consistent with operations up to 51,000 ft.
The airframe belongs to the Gates Learjet 55 family, positioned in the fixed-wing multi-engine business jet category, combining high cruise speed and a service ceiling of 51,000 ft to serve demanding executive and charter missions. Its performance figures—458 kts cruise and 2,244 nm range—place it in a niche emphasizing rapid point-to-point travel and high-altitude climb capability. Market considerations for this model typically include demand from buyers seeking speed and altitude performance, and maintenance focus on the twin Garrett TFE731-3A-2B engines; resale and operational value will vary depending on aerialframe condition, avionics fit, and interior configuration, none of which are published for this serial.
