N916BD

The airframe bearing tail number N916BD is a factory serial 45-520 Learjet built in 2015 by Learjet Inc. (Bombardier Aerospace). It is recorded in corporate ownership as DILLARD'S INC, a corporation based in Tunica, MS, US, and carries a United States registration. Some public registries list a reported conversion to Learjet 75 configuration, a notable registry discrepancy for this specific airframe. Condition and valuation notes are limited to operator records; no public appraisal is provided in the supplied data.

The cabin of N916BD is fitted in a typical eight-place executive double-club layout, accommodating business transport and short-range transcontinental missions; layouts may vary by operator. Avionics are reported as the Honeywell Primus 1000 suite as is typical for the Learjet 45, subject to operator STC modifications or upgrades. With a cruise speed of 445 kts and a 1,700 nm range, typical operations for this airframe include corporate point-to-point travel and executive charter legs from its home base in Tunica, Mississippi. Maintenance considerations align with twin-engine business jet schedules for Honeywell TFE731 series powerplants and airframe-specific campaigns for the Learjet 45 series.

The aircraft is a member of the Learjet 45 family, positioned in the light-to-mid-size business jet niche offering high cruise speed and a 51,000 ft service ceiling for executive mobility. Competing models in its class include similarly sized light business jets that trade off cabin volume, range, and acquisition cost; the Learjet 45 is known for its clean aerodynamic profile and performance emphasis. Buyer and charter demand tends to reflect the model’s speed and runway performance, while maintenance and resale considerations focus on avionics upgrade paths (such as Primus 1000 modernizations) and any documented STC conversions like the reported Learjet 75 conversion entries in some registries.
