N345RL

This entry covers airframe N345RL, a 2002-build Bombardier Learjet 45 with manufacturer serial number 45-180. The aircraft is owned by the corporate entity Knollwood LLC, operating as a US-registered fixed-wing multi-engine executive transport. The two Honeywell TFE731-20 turbofan engines are recorded on aircraft documents as TFE731-20AR-1B, and the airframe is maintained to support its high-altitude performance and executive interior. Registry and equipment listings emphasize the aircraft’s executive configuration and avionics suite as notable features of this specific airframe.

The cabin of N345RL is outfitted in an eight-passenger executive layout with a center club seating arrangement and a belted aft lavatory seat, and it includes six folding tables and a galley provision for inflight service. Avionics are Honeywell Primus 1000 systems comprising dual DU-870 EFIS/MFD displays, a UNS-1EW FMS, TCAS II, EGPWS, and a WAAS/LPV-capable FMS, enabling precision navigation and traffic/terrain awareness for corporate mission profiles. Typical operations for this airframe are executive point-to-point flights within its published long-range and high-cruise capability envelope, leveraging its 1,970 nm range and 445 kt cruise speed. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft center on the two TFE731-20 engines (listed as TFE731-20AR-1B in records) and preservation of the executive interior, including folding-table mechanisms and galley fittings.

The Bombardier Learjet 45 represented a light-medium business jet niche emphasizing high cruise speed and high-altitude capability, here exemplified by N345RL’s 51,000 ft ceiling and 445 kt cruise. Competing models occupy similar point-to-point corporate transport roles; buyer and charter interest for individual airframes is influenced by installed avionics packages such as the Honeywell Primus 1000 fit and well-documented engine variants. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are driven by engine type and hours, cabin configuration, and the documented avionics suite, which support continued operational relevance in corporate flight operations.
