N359K

This entry covers the specific Learjet 45 airframe bearing tail number N359K, built in 2014 with serial number 2140. The airframe is owned by the corporation Kiewit Engineering Group Inc, based in Omaha, NE, US, and is registered in the US. The registration and corporate ownership tie the aircraft to a large engineering firm whose flight operations typically support corporate transport; the registration lists 12 seats on the FAA/registry, a detail notable relative to typical executive-fit seating counts. No public record of previous owners or major incidents is provided in the supplied data.

The cabin of this specific Learjet 45 is described by registry and typical configuration references: the registration lists 12 seats while typical executive layouts for the model follow a double-club arrangement accommodating 8–9 passengers; this airframe therefore may be fitted or certificated to a denser seating arrangement for corporate personnel movement. Avionics fit is the Learjet 45 standard integrated suite, listed as Honeywell Primus 1000, supporting advanced navigation and flight-management functions appropriate for both business transport and company travel. Typical missions for this airframe would include medium-range corporate routes within the continental US and to nearby international destinations, leveraging the aircraft’s near-2,000 nm range and high-speed cruise. As a corporate-registered platform, operator base and maintenance are expected to be aligned with owner facilities in Omaha, NE.

The Learjet 45 family occupies the light to midsize business-jet niche, offering high-speed cruise and a 51,000 ft service ceiling that enable efficient point-to-point corporate operations. Competing aircraft in its class commonly include light to midsize business jets with similar range and speed profiles; buyer and charter demand historically centers on operators needing fast regional performance with modest cabin capacity. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe are influenced by factory-equipped Honeywell TFE731 engines and the Honeywell Primus 1000 avionics suite, both well-supported items in the aftermarket, and by the airframe’s relatively recent 2014 build year and corporate ownership.
