N552LM

The airframe N552LM is a Bombardier Learjet 31A built in 2000 with serial number 31A-192. The aircraft is owned by Tvpx Aircraft Solutions Inc Trustee, a corporate owner based in North Salt Lake, UT, US, and is registered in the US. Registry information notes a 10-placard capacity and the aircraft carries a VIP executive layout with an integrated medical fit; current valuation is listed at $598,648. Maintenance and valuation highlight its mature age and specialized interior fitment that can affect market liquidity and mission availability.

The cabin of N552LM is configured in a VIP executive layout with a medical configuration, including dual Lifeport medical systems and a forward belted lav seat/divan; the interior presents as a typical 6–8 passenger executive setup while the registry lists a 10 placard capacity. Avionics and safety fit include Universal UNS-1EW WAAS/LPV, Bendix/King EFS-50 EFIS, Bendix/King KFC-3100 autopilot, Bendix/King MST-70B Mode S XPDR, TCAS II and Honeywell Mark VII TAWS, supporting both executive and medevac mission profiles. Typical operations for this airframe would emphasize short to mid-range executive transport or on-demand medical missions from its operator base in North Salt Lake, UT, with performance and systems tailored to high-altitude cruise and precision approaches. Specialized equipment such as dual Lifeport systems increases mission flexibility but also drives specific maintenance and inspection regimes.

The Bombardier Learjet 31A family occupies a light, high-performance niche characterized by high cruise speed and altitude capability; N552LM’s 441 kt cruise and 51,000 ft ceiling reflect that design intent. Competing models in the segment offer varying balances of range, cabin size and operating economics; the Learjet 31A typically appeals to buyers requiring fast, short-field capable light jets. Resale considerations for a 2000-built airframe with medical modifications include specialized interior depreciation, mission-specific equipment value, and the ongoing cost of TFE731-series engine maintenance and avionics support.
