N45NP

This entry covers airframe N45NP, a business jet completed by Learjet Inc as a Learjet 45 in 2002, carrying manufacturer serial number 204. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by BGS TRANSPORT LLC, an LLC based in Wilmington, DE, US, which appears as the primary registrant and operator/home base on record. No other historical operators or registry transfers are published in the supplied data; current ownership appears stable under the named LLC. The aircraft’s listed market valuation for this specific example is $2,000,000, reflecting its condition and configuration at the time of valuation.

The cabin of this specific Learjet 45 is configured for 12 seats, suitable for typical light business-jet missions such as short-to-medium intercity hops and regional executive transport. Avionics fit is the base fitment typical to the model, listed as Honeywell Primus 1000, supporting the aircraft’s navigation, communication and flight management needs in corporate operations. With an operational cruise of 425 kts and a mission range of 1,690 nm, the airframe is suited to nonstop flights between many domestic city pairs and nearby international destinations. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow the Learjet 45 class standards, with particular attention to the twin Honeywell TFE731-20 engines and high-altitude systems required for operations up to 51,000 ft.

The Learjet 45 occupies a light, high-performance niche in the business-jet market, offering high cruise speed and a service ceiling above many light jets. Competing models in the class share similar mission profiles; buyers and charter operators typically value the model for speed and climb performance rather than maximum cabin volume. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific 2002 airframe include engine time on the TFE731 series powerplants and avionics like the Honeywell Primus 1000, which can affect marketability and upgrade costs relative to later avionics suites. The reported valuation of $2,000,000 places this airframe within the used market tier for early-2000s Learjet 45 examples.
