N631BA

This entry covers airframe N631BA, a factory-built Learjet 60XR completed in 2013 with serial number 60-423. The aircraft is owned by DLF-AIR LLC (an LLC based in New Orleans, LA, US) and is registered in the US; the current record lists the operator/home base as New Orleans. Registered to DLF-AIR LLC upon acquisition, the airframe presents as a late-model 60XR example with a listed market valuation of $4,500,000. Notable registry actions are limited to the provided ownership attribution and U.S. registration; no additional historical events were published in the supplied data.

The cabin of N631BA is fitted in an executive 6+1 layout featuring six articulating full-berthing seats and a belted aft lavatory, a configuration aimed at combining passenger comfort with short-rest capability. Avionics are supplied by a Collins Pro Line 21 suite, supporting modern cockpit integration and typical business-jet navigation and communication requirements. Operated from New Orleans under its LLC owner-operator, the aircraft’s performance figures and cabin arrangement suit regional and transcontinental business missions within its 2,418 nm range and cruise speed of 436 kts. Given the twin PW305A engines and executive fit, maintenance considerations for this airframe would center on airframe/engine cycle monitoring and avionics support consistent with higher-utilization corporate aircraft.

The Learjet 60XR occupies a mid-size light-to-midsize business-jet niche within the Learjet family, offering high-speed cruise and high-altitude capability up to 51,000 ft. Competing models in the same market envelope typically include light-midsize jets with similar transcontinental range and executive cabin configurations. Demand from buyers and charter operators often focuses on speed, runway performance, and acquisition cost; the listed valuation of $4,500,000 positions this 2013 airframe competitively for purchasers seeking a late-model 60XR. Resale and maintenance considerations for this model emphasize engine program status, avionics condition (here, Pro Line 21), and interior refurbishment when assessing lifecycle value.
