Model & Market Context

This entry covers the specific Learjet 45 airframe registered as N459LC, built in 1999 with manufacturer's serial number 60. The aircraft is operated by and owned by Jumper Air LLC, a corporation based in Green Bay, WI, and carries United States registration. Registry history is limited to the provided ownership; no other transfers or notable registry actions are recorded here. The airframe is valued at $2,500,000, reflecting market and condition indicators associated with late-1990s production Learjet 45 examples.

The cabin of N459LC is outfitted in an executive 8-passenger double-club configuration with a forward galley and an aft belted lavatory, a layout optimized for business transport and short to medium-haul charters. Avionics are Honeywell Primus 1000 EFIS gear, including DU-870 displays, a UNS-1C FMS, and WAAS/LPV capability, supporting precision approaches and modern navigation workflows. Typical mission profiles for this fitted Learjet 45 include owner/operator corporate travel and on-demand charter flights within its approximately 1,970 nm range, exploiting its high cruise speed of 436 kts and 51,000 ft service ceiling for efficient point-to-point routing. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe align with the Learjet 45 airframe and Honeywell TFE731 engine common servicing schedules and avionics support requirements.

The Learjet 45 occupies the light-cabin, high-performance segment of business jets, offering fast cruise and high-altitude capability compared with contemporaries. Its twin Honeywell TFE731 engines and an executive eight-seat layout make it competitive with similar light jets in owner-flown and charter markets seeking speed and climb performance. Market demand and resale value for a 1999 model such as N459LC are influenced by completed avionics upgrades like the Primus 1000 package, engine time, and overall maintenance records; these factors drive buyer interest and typical valuations in the used business-jet marketplace.
