Ownership is recorded to Phillips Aviation Company LLC, a limited liability company shown as the current owner; no additional prior operators or home base are published in the provided data. There are no specific registry actions or incident records supplied for this airframe in the dataset; the aircraft is noted with a market valuation of $2,600,000, which serves as a condition/valuation highlight in lieu of detailed maintenance or damage history. The airframe is categorized as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet and carries the factory and aftermarket characteristics consistent with its model year.

This specific Learjet 60 airframe is configured in a typical seven-place executive layout with a forward galley and a belted aft lavatory; the exact interior may vary depending on later refits. The avionics fit is described as the Collins Pro Line suite or a typical Pro Line installation for the Learjet 60, recognizing that avionics packages can be modified or upgraded over the aircraft’s service life. Operationally, aircraft of this configuration commonly serve owner-operator and charter missions on short- to medium-range corporate trips, leveraging the aircraft’s cruise speed and transcontinental range for swift point-to-point transportation. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with mid-1990s Learjet 60 practices, including attention to the PW305A engine program and avionics retrofit paths if avionics modernization is undertaken.

The Learjet 60 occupies a mid-size light-cabin business jet niche, emphasizing high cruise speed and relatively long-range performance for its class; with a 436-knot cruise and 2,418-nm range it competes against contemporaries offering similar point-to-point capability. Typical competitors include later-model light and midsize business jets from other manufacturers that offer cabin comforts and avionics modernization; buyer and charter demand for this model centers on operators valuing speed and runway performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are shaped by engine program costs for the PW305A, the availability and cost of avionics upgrades to modern Pro Line standards, and the airframe’s market valuation of $2,600,000.
