N796JH

This entry covers airframe N796JH, a factory-built Learjet 45XR delivered in 2006 with serial number 45-306. The aircraft is owned by GPC AVIATION INVESTMENTS LLC, a corporate owner based in Fresno, CA, US, and is registered in the US. Acquired into the GPC Aviation Investments fleet, the airframe presents as a mid-2000s Learjet XR example with an estimated market value of $2,850,000, reflecting age, configuration and typical wear for its model year.

The cabin of N796JH is fitted in the typical Learjet 45/45XR executive arrangement, configured as an 8–9 place executive double-club with belted lavatory and a partial galley, supporting short to mid-range corporate missions and executive charter work. Avionics conform to the Learjet 45XR fit with a Honeywell Primus-style EFIS and UNS‑1C FMS, providing modern navigation and flight management capabilities consistent with the type. Based in Fresno, the airframe is routinely operated on regional business routes within the aircraft’s 1,841 nm operational radius at a cruise around 425 kts, leveraging its high-speed climb to typical cruise altitudes up to 51,000 ft. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe emphasize TFE731-20BR engine programs and calendar-based inspections typical of mid-2000s Learjet airframes.

The Learjet 45XR family occupies the light-to-mid-size business jet niche with transcontinental regional capability, combining high cruise speeds and a 51,000 ft service ceiling for efficient point-to-point travel. Competing models in its class include late-model light bizjets offering similar mission profiles; demand is driven by corporate buyers and charter operators valuing speed and runway performance. For a 2006 serial 45-306, resale and maintenance considerations hinge on engine program status, avionics upgrades, and interior condition—factors that directly influence the listed market valuation of $2,850,000.
