N342JP

This airframe, registered as N342JP, is a Learjet 31A built by Learjet Inc. in 1994 with serial number 100. The airframe is listed as owned by DTM AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Statesboro, GA, US, which serves as the operator and home base for the jet. The current brokerage description and valuation indicate the aircraft remains registered in the US and configured for light business jet operations. The airframe carries a broker-estimated market value of $985,000, reflecting its age, systems fit, and typical market depreciation for the model.

This specific Learjet 31A is configured with a ten-seat cabin layout suitable for short to medium-range business missions and light charter operations originating from Statesboro, GA, US. The avionics fit, as listed in the broker brochure, incorporates a Bendix/King EFIS (EFS-10) paired with a KFC-3100 autopilot, dual Bendix/King communications, a Universal UNS-1L FMS, TCAS II, TAWS, and weather radar, supporting single-pilot or two-pilot IFR dispatch depending on operator practice. Typical routes emphasize regional hops within the aircraft’s 1,631 nm range and high-speed cruise at 441 kts, exploiting the model’s high-altitude capability to FL510. Maintenance considerations for this airframe will center on age-related airframe and engine time management, avionics retrofits as needed, and adherence to TCAS/TAWS and transponder regulations.

The Learjet 31A sits in the light, high-performance business jet niche, prized for rapid climb to a 51,000 ft ceiling and high cruise speed, making it competitive for short to mid-range point-to-point missions. Common competitors include other light jets in the era of similar performance; buyer demand tends to focus on total time, engines (Honeywell TFE731-2-3B), and avionics fits like the installed Bendix/King EFIS and Universal UNS-1L FMS. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe include monitoring the aircraft’s cumulative engine and airframe cycles, avionics obsolescence, and the market sensitivity of a 1994 vintage Learjet when compared to newer light-jet offerings.
