N605BX

This entry documents a specific airframe, tail number N605BX, a 2003-built business jet manufactured by Learjet Inc. The airframe carries serial number 45-2004 and is listed as owned by XCEL JET MANAGEMENT INC (a Corporation based in Newark, DE, US), which serves as the operator/home base for this registration. Notable registry actions: Not published. The aircraft is valued at $7,500,000, reflecting its configuration and market position for the model year and equipment fitted.

The airframe features a typical flat-floor executive cabin arranged in a 7–9 place layout, though the aircraft is certificated for 12 seats overall, and carries approximately 50 cu ft of external baggage space. Typical avionics fit for this series is the Honeywell Primus 1000, which is installed as the panel baseline for the Learjet 45 family and supports the aircraft’s mission equipment. Operationally, this configuration suits short-to-mid range executive transport profiles within the aircraft’s 1,700 nm radius and high-speed cruise capability of 445 kts, supporting point-to-point corporate, charter, and owner-flown missions from the operator’s base in Newark, DE, US. Maintenance considerations follow the model’s twin-engine architecture and the Honeywell TFE731-20 powerplants’ lifecycle requirements.

The airframe belongs to the Learjet 45 family, a fixed-wing multi-engine platform positioned for high-speed, high-altitude executive travel with a 51,000 ft service ceiling and transcontinental short-to-mid-range capability. In the used market, aircraft of this vintage and equipment level are evaluated on avionics fit, maintenance history of the Honeywell TFE731-20 engines, and cabin configuration; a listed valuation here is $7,500,000. Buyers and charter operators typically compare the Learjet 45’s performance niche against contemporaneous light-cabin business jets when assessing resale and operational economics.
