N787CH

This airframe, registered as N787CH, is a 2005-build Learjet 45XR with serial number 0266. The jet is owned by LJ-45 LLC, a corporation based in Wilmington, DE, US, and carries a United States registration (US). The airframe presents as a typical mid‑2000s Learjet 45XR example, currently valued at $3,400,000, with ownership and registration traces tied to the corporate owner; the aircraft’s registration history reflects corporate operation rather than individual ownership. No additional public operator changes are recorded in the supplied data.

The cabin of N787CH follows the Learjet 45XR executive configuration, accommodating an executive 8–12 passenger typical layout with a forward galley and a belted aft lavatory, supporting mixed business and short‑to‑medium‑range transport missions. Avionics fit is the Honeywell Primus 1000 suite, the typical installation for the Learjet 45/45XR series, which supports precision approaches and common fleet interoperability. With a cruise speed of 436 kts and a maximum certified ceiling of 51,000 ft, the aircraft is suited to high‑speed, high‑altitude business missions and time‑sensitive charters operating from regional corporate bases. Maintenance planning for this specific airframe would follow Learjet 45XR schedules for the Honeywell TFE731 engines and the Primus avionics architecture.

The Learjet 45XR occupies the light‑cast business jet niche with performance focused on fast cruise and high‑altitude capability comparable to other light jets of its era. Typical competitors include late‑generation light jets offering similar range and speed; buyer and charter demand for well‑maintained 45XRs centers on operators seeking runway performance and high‑altitude cruise. Resale considerations for this serial (0266) and year (2005) balance airframe hours, engine cycles, avionics currency, and corporate ownership history; the listed value ($3,400,000) reflects these factors for market comparables.
