Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N790JR, is an Israel Aircraft Industries-built IAI 1124A Westwind II completed in 1984 with manufacturer serial number 424. The aircraft is owned by TRANSENERGIE INC, a Houston, TX corporation, and is operated from a US base with US registration actions on file. The airframe history reflects corporate ownership concentrated in Houston; transfer to TRANSENERGIE INC is the principal documented ownership change. No independent valuation or public condition survey is published in the supplied data.

The specific cabin on this Westwind II is configured for two flight crew plus a typical 7–10 passenger executive layout while the FAA listing records 12 seats, reflecting a commonly flexible interior that can be reconfigured between executive and higher-density layouts. Typical missions for this airframe include medium-range corporate transport and executive shuttle operations out of the Houston area, leveraging the aircraft’s transcontinental range capability. Avionics fit is not detailed in the supplied data, and unique amenities or specific maintenance log entries for this serial are not published; routine maintenance considerations follow standard twin-engine turbofan business-jet practice for Garrett TFE731-powered airframes.

The IAI 1124A Westwind II occupies the light-to-midsize business jet niche, offering moderate transcontinental range and high cruise speed for its class, as shown by this airframe’s 424 kt cruise and 2,390 nm range. Competitors historically include late-model light jets and small midsize cabins from manufacturers such as Cessna and Dassault in similar mission profiles. Buyer and charter demand for vintage Westwind IIs typically targets operators valuing speed and range at lower acquisition cost, while maintenance and resale considerations center on engine TBO status for the Garrett TFE731 series, airframe aging, and avionics modernization needs.
