N638HP

This entry describes airframe N638HP, a 2001-built Learjet 31A with serial number 31A-219. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is recorded as owned by BOULDER FALCON LLC, an LLC based in Salt Lake City, UT. Ownership is held by BOULDER FALCON LLC in Salt Lake City, UT, and the airframe carries US registration actions consistent with corporate operation. Valuation records list the airframe at $795,000, reflecting market perceptions for a 2001 Learjet 31A in its class.

The airframe is configured with a 10-seat executive cabin, indicating a typical corporate or on-demand charter interior layout for light business jet missions. Based on the registered owner’s location, routine operator activity and basing are centered on Salt Lake City, UT, though the Learjet 31A’s performance enables long cross-country segments within its 1,290 nm range and high-speed cruise at 441 kts. The twin Honeywell TFE731-2-3B turbofan installation, each producing 3,500 lbf, supports rapid climb to service ceiling operations up to 51,000 ft, making the platform suitable for point-to-point business travel and flight profiles that prioritize speed and altitude separation. Specific avionics fit and cabin furnishings for this individual airframe are not published in the supplied data; maintenance considerations align with in-service support for early-2000s Learjet airframes and their Honeywell TFE731 powerplants.

The Learjet 31A occupies the light, high-performance business jet niche, prized for its high cruise speed, transcontinental capability for short-pair missions, and high-altitude performance. Competing models in the same era include other light jets offering similar mission profiles; buyer and charter demand for older 31A airframes is influenced by systems upgrades, engine life limits, and interior condition. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe center on age-related refurbishment needs and the cost-efficiency of sustaining Honeywell TFE731 series engine support relative to current market valuations such as the listed $795,000.
