Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N66VA, is an Israel Aircraft Industries 1124 Westwind built in 1983 with serial number 375. It is owned by FRANCO PLASTERING INC, a corporate owner based in Naples, FL, US. The jet carries a United States registration (US) and is documented as a fixed-wing multi-engine business aircraft. Registry and ownership entries identify the operator/home base in Naples, Florida and reflect corporate ownership rather than individual private use.
The cabin for this airframe is configured in a typical executive layout with 2 crew + 7–10 passengers; interior arrangements may include club seating or divan options depending on retrofit choices. Based on its registered owner and home location, the aircraft operates from Naples, Florida and is operated in a corporate transport role consistent with its executive cabin configuration. Performance figures such as a 2,390 nm range, 390 kt cruise speed, and 45,000 ft ceiling define the mission profile for medium-range corporate flights and inter-regional hops. Maintenance and operational planning for this particular airframe follow the requirements of a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet powered by twin TFE731-series turbofan engines.
The Israel Aircraft Industries 1124 Westwind produced by Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI) occupies the light-to-mid-size business jet niche with twin TFE731-series engines producing 3,700 lbf each, enabling transcontinental capability within its 2,390 nm range and high-altitude operation to 45,000 ft. Its performance and seating for 10 passengers position it for corporate and charter demand where speed (390 kt) and runway flexibility are valued. Buyers and operators typically consider engines, avionics retrofit potential, and airframe serial/maintenance history—here identified by serial 375 and build year 1983—when evaluating maintenance, resale prospects, and mission suitability.
