Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N547PA, is a 1975-built Gates Learjet 36 with serial number 36-012 manufactured by Gates Learjet Corp.. The aircraft is owned by PHOENIX AIR GROUP INC, a corporate owner based in Cartersville, GA, US, and is registered in the US. The combination of an early-production Learjet 36 serial and long-standing corporate ownership suggests a history focused on utility and executive missions rather than headline public operations; no other registry events or sales are published in the supplied data. The airframe’s condition and valuation details are not published in the provided dataset.
The airframe carries a certified 10-seat cabin configuration, described in the data as 10-seat certified (typical Learjet 36 executive / utility seating), indicating flexibility between executive layout and higher-density utility seating. Operated from the owner’s base in Cartersville, GA, US, the aircraft is suited to medium- to long-range business or charter missions consistent with its 2,600 nm range and high cruise speed of 418 kts. Typical mission profiles for this specific airframe would include coast-to-coast domestic flights and regional international hops within its range, flown at high-altitude cruise up to its 45,000 ft ceiling. Specific avionics fit, interior furnishing level, and maintenance status for N547PA are not published in the supplied data.
The Gates Learjet 36 occupies a niche for light business jets offering high cruise speed and long range for its class, exemplified by this airframe’s 418 kts cruise and 2,600 nm capability. Competing models in the market context typically include later light-cabin jets offering similar speed-range combinations but with differing payload or cabin volume; buyers and charter operators prize the Learjet 36 for speed and climb performance to 45,000 ft. Maintenance and resale considerations for a 1975-built serial 36-012 often hinge on component life limits for engines such as the Garrett TFE731 series, avionics modernization, and the documented maintenance history held by the corporate owner PHOENIX AIR GROUP INC.
