N823CA

This entry describes airframe N823CA, a 2002-built Bombardier Learjet 45 with manufacturer listed as Learjet (Bombardier Aerospace) and constructor serial number 45-221. The aircraft is recorded as owned by a Private U.S. owner (Oklahoma-based) and operated from Oklahoma, US; no prior public ownership transfers are listed. No notable registry actions have been published for this tail, and no public valuation or condition statement has been published for this specific airframe. The listing reflects a single, unnamed individual/corporate ownership with a home base in Oklahoma.

The cabin of N823CA is fitted in a nine-passenger executive layout featuring double-club seating, a belted lavatory seat, a forward galley and an aft lavatory, configured for business or private travel. Avionics are contemporary for the model, including a Honeywell Primus 1000 (four-tube DU-870 EFIS/MFD), Dual UNS-1Ew FMS with WAAS/LPV, TCAS II, EGPWS, Mode S transponder and ADS-B Out, supporting precision navigation and modern airspace compliance. Typical missions for this airframe profile include short- to medium-range corporate hops within the U.S. and regional flights consistent with the Learjet 45’s 1,841 nm range and high-speed cruise; operations are based out of Oklahoma under private ownership. Maintenance considerations follow Learjet 45 program norms driven by the twin Honeywell TFE731 engines and the avionics suite; any airframe-specific maintenance history has not been published.

The Bombardier Learjet 45 occupies the light-cabin, high-speed business jet niche with high cruise speed and a 51,000 ft service ceiling, offering rapid point-to-point travel for small passenger groups. Competitors historically include other light-cabin jets offering similar mission capability; buyer demand for this model centers on owner-operators and corporate users seeking speed and range in a compact platform. Resale and maintenance considerations focus on engine TBOs, avionics upgrades such as WAAS/LPV integration and ADS-B compliance, and the typical lifecycle economics of early-2000s Learjet 45 airframes.
