N69BS

This entry describes the specific airframe bearing tail number N69BS, an Israel Aerospace Industries-built IAI 1125A Astra SPX (marketed as the Gulfstream G100) completed in 2001 with manufacturer serial number 138. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by DSPA LLC, an LLC based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, US. The airframe is configured and operated as an executive transport with a noted valuation of $1,950,000, reflecting its age, equipment fit and market position among light midsize business jets. Registry details indicate a US registration and ownership tied to a Baton Rouge, LA address; no additional prior ownership transfers are published in the supplied data.

The cabin of this individual Astra SPX is finished in an executive eight-passenger layout featuring a forward side-facing seat, a mid four‑place club arrangement, dual aft forward‑facing seats and a belted lav seat, supported by a forward galley and a belted enclosed lavatory located aft. Avionics for this airframe are fitted with a Collins Pro Line 4 suite including dual UNS-1C FMS units, TCAS II, Honeywell Mark V EGPWS, SATCOM and ADS‑B, enabling long-range IFR operations and modern situational awareness. Typical missions for this configuration would be transcontinental or intercontinental corporate transport consistent with the aircraft’s 3,110 nm range and 450 kt cruise, with the owner/operator based in Baton Rouge, LA. Maintenance and operational considerations for this specific aircraft will reflect the TFE731 series engine type and Pro Line 4 avionics life‑cycle requirements.

The IAI 1125A Astra SPX / Gulfstream G100 occupies the light midsize business jet niche, offering higher cruise speed and cabin amenities compared with smaller light jets while delivering efficient short-to-medium long-range capability as shown by the 3,110 nm range and 45,000 ft ceiling. Competing models in the market typically include other light midsize types that balance passenger comfort and range; valuation near $1.95M positions this airframe as an attractively priced used example for buyers seeking executive interior and Pro Line 4 avionics. Resale and maintenance considerations center on TFE731 engine support, avionics upgrade paths from Collins Pro Line 4, and the airframe’s 2001 build year and serial-specific maintenance history.
