N351AC

This airframe, N351AC, is a Learjet 31A built in 1992 with manufacturer serial number 051. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by LUNA JET LLC, a corporation based in Hauʻula, HI, US; the current registration and corporate ownership establish its operator/home base in Hawaiʻi. Valuation records list the airframe at $598,648, reflecting its vintage and market position among light business jets. No additional registry actions or historical owners are published beyond the present corporate registration.

The cabin in this particular Learjet 31A is typically outfitted in an executive 6–8 passenger club configuration, though some listings for the model note layouts of up to 10 seats or an alternate belted forward lavatory arrangement; the present data indicates the airframe supports those common corporate layouts. Avionics on many 31A examples — and consistent with this airframe’s common fits — include a Bendix/King EFS-50 style EFIS combined with a KFC-3100 autopilot, providing modernized flight-deck capability relative to original installations. Operating from a Hawaiian base, typical missions for N351AC would center on short-to-mid-range inter-island executive transport and business charters within the Pacific, benefiting from the jet’s high cruise speed and transoceanic-adjacent range profile. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect typical older Learjet service items and the support network for Honeywell TFE731 turbofans.

The Learjet 31A occupies the light, high-performance business-jet niche with a high cruise speed of 441 kts and a service ceiling to 51,000 ft, appealing to buyers seeking speed and altitude performance in compact cabins. Competing models in its era included other light jets that emphasize short-field performance and fast cruise, and market demand tends toward owner-operators and charter companies valuing speed and climb capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by its 1992 build year, component life limits on engines and avionics upgrades (such as the Bendix/King EFIS and KFC-3100 autopilot fit), and regional operational patterns tied to its Hawaiian corporate base.
