N603AW

This airframe, registered as N603AW, is a Rockwell-built Sabreliner 65 delivered in 1981 with manufacturer's serial number 46572. The airframe is recorded as owned and operated by the corporation National Test Pilot School, based in Mojave, California, registered with an executive/training cabin fit in the registration record. The aircraft is listed on the U.S. civil registry and carries an assessed market value of $600,000. Registry entries indicate an operational role consistent with training and executive transport under the current corporate ownership.

The specific cabin for this airframe is reported as a 12-seat configuration, described in the registration record as an executive/training fit, reflecting the owner’s mission profile. Detailed avionics and specific interior amenities are Not published; however, the reported seating and ownership by a flight test and training organization suggest interior arrangements optimized for mixed instruction and passenger transport duties. Typical operations for this aircraft under its current operator likely include training sorties, crew instruction, and short- to medium-range transport flights originating from the operator’s Mojave, California base. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would be influenced by its use in a training environment and the age of a 1981-built airframe, with regulatory and airworthiness actions managed through the U.S. registry.

This airframe is a member of the Rockwell (North American) Sabreliner 65 lineage, represented here as the Rockwell (North American) Sabreliner 65 (NA-265-65). With a reported cruise of 430 kts, a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, and a range of 2,480 nm, the type occupies a performance niche for high-speed, mid-range business and training missions. The twin Honeywell TFE731-3R powerplants producing 3,700 lbf each underpin its performance profile. Market and resale considerations for this specific airframe are reflected in the recorded value of $600,000, with condition and mission equipment (training modifications) likely significant factors in valuation and operational longevity.
