N590TC

This specific airframe, registered as N590TC, is a Learjet 55 built by Gates Learjet Corporation in 1983 with serial number 082. The aircraft is held by LEAR HOLDING CORP, a corporation located in Wilmington, DE, US, and is registered in the US. Its recorded valuation stands at $666,000, and operator records for similar Learjet 55 airframes note operator-specific retrofits reported on similar 55 airframes that can affect equipment fit and marketability.

The cabin on this Learjet 55 supports a typical 7-place executive club arrangement or can be outfitted for up to 12–13 executive seats, and includes a forward galley and an enclosed aft lavatory as standard layout elements. Avionics are reported as a Legacy Collins/Honeywell suite (ADF-60, VHF, GNS-style GPS units) with the possibility of operator-specific retrofits on comparable airframes; such retrofits commonly alter navigation, communication, and mission equipment. With a long-range capability of 2,244 nm and a high cruise speed of 420 kts, mission profiles typically include transcontinental executive transport and on-demand charter hops where speed and altitude flexibility are prioritized. Operator base is tied to the listed owner in Wilmington, DE, with maintenance and upgrade decisions reflecting corporate ownership and the airframe’s market valuation.

The Learjet 55 occupies a mid-size light-to-midsize business jet niche within the Learjet family, offering high cruising altitudes (up to 51,000 ft) and relatively high cruise speeds for efficient point-to-point travel. Competing models in its vintage class serve similar executive transport and charter markets; buyer and charter demand is influenced by avionics fit, interior configuration and maintenance history. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe are affected by the legacy avionics suite and any operator-specific retrofits reported on similar 55 airframes, while the listed value of $666,000 reflects age, equipment, and market liquidity for early-1980s business jets.
