Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N33TR is a 1980-built Rockwell NA-265-65 Sabreliner 65, serial 465-47, recorded as owned by AIRBORNE HOLDINGS INC of Midlothian, TX, US. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is listed with a market valuation of $595,000, reflecting its age and configuration. Its documented registry status and corporate ownership indicate a single corporate owner on public records, with no additional ownership transitions published in the supplied data. Notable registry points include its active U.S. registration and the aircraft’s continued operation as a fixed-wing multi-engine platform.
This specific Sabreliner 65 is configured to accommodate 12 seats, consistent with executive or small-group transport roles; specific cabin layout and finish details are not published beyond seating capacity. With a long-range capability of 2,480 nm and a high cruise speed near 441 kts, typical mission profiles for this airframe would include medium- to long-range corporate flights, regional hops, and point-to-point charter work within continental U.S. range limits. Based at or operated from the owner’s location in Midlothian, TX, the aircraft’s twin Honeywell TFE731-3DR turbofan engines provide the thrust performance required for rapid climb to its 45,000 ft ceiling, which benefits higher-altitude cruise and fuel efficiency. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with standard Sabreliner 65 practices and the service needs of TFE731-series engines; specific avionics fit and recent maintenance history are not published in the provided data.
The Rockwell NA-265-65 Sabreliner 65 occupies a niche as a midsize business jet derivative with military-derived handling and robust performance for its era. With twin Honeywell TFE731 powerplants producing 3,880 lbf each, the model competes in legacy markets against other late-1970s to 1980s business jets offering similar range and speed. Buyer and charter demand for this airframe tends to favor operators seeking proven performance at lower acquisition cost, reflected in the $595,000 valuation for this particular airframe. Resale and maintenance considerations center on airframe age, parts availability for legacy systems, and the life-cycle support of the TFE731 engine family.
