N945HC

This entry covers the airframe registered as N945HC, a Bombardier Learjet 45 built in 2000 with manufacturer's serial 45-109 by Learjet Inc (Bombardier Aerospace). The airframe is owned by FLOUNDERING FOUR LLC and is recorded to an Anchorage, AK, US address, operating on the US registry; ownership and address are the principal publicly listed operator details. The registry capability is listed to 12 seats while the common cabin fit on this specific airframe is the model-standard eight-place executive layout; valuation records list the airframe at $3,400,000. No other notable registry actions or change-of-ownership events are published for this specific serial in the supplied data.

The cabin for this Learjet 45 airframe is described as the typical eight-place executive double‑club layout for the model family while the registry capability is listed to 12 seats, allowing flexibility between executive transport and higher-capacity configurations. Avionics fit for the family and the typical installation for this airframe is the Honeywell Primus 1000 EFIS, supporting modern glass instrumentation common to Learjet 45 operators. Based from Anchorage, AK, the aircraft is well suited to regional executive missions across the North Pacific and Alaskan routes given its range of 1,971 nm and high-altitude capability to FL510. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would align with the Learjet 45 fleet standard, including attention to the TFE731-20BR turbofan maintenance cycles and avionics modernization paths.

The Learjet 45 family occupies a light-to-midsize business jet niche, offering high cruise speeds — here 465 kts — and a 51,000 ft ceiling that supports fast point-to-point executive transport. Competing airframes in similar missions include light-medium jets from other manufacturers; demand typically comes from corporate owner-operators and charter firms that value speed and climb performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific serial hinge on cumulative hours, engine TBO status, and avionics configuration such as the installed Honeywell Primus 1000 EFIS, which can affect marketability and upgrade costs.
