N97LJ

This airframe, registration N97LJ, is a 1998-built Learjet 60 with manufacturer serial number 123. It is recorded as owned by WH AIR LLC, an LLC based in Clearwater, FL, US, and is operated from that location as the operator/home base. Listed on the US registry under that ownership with no additional publicized owner transfers or notable incident registry actions reported. Condition and valuation summaries specific to this airframe are not published in the supplied data.

The cabin of N97LJ is maintained in a typical executive layout certificated up to 11 seats, with common configurations in this model featuring a 7–8 passenger corporate interior for executive transport. Avionics are reported as a Collins Pro Line fitment, with EFIS/Pro Line 4-tube components cited on aircraft-specific listings, supporting conventional corporate and charter mission avionics capability. Typical mission profiles for this airframe type and configuration include medium-range executive transport and on-demand charter flights within the aircraft’s 2,418 nm range and high-speed cruise capability of 436 kts, operating from the owner/operator base in Clearwater, Florida. Maintenance considerations follow Learjet 60 norms for twin-engine business jets powered by PW305A engines, with system and component support tied to Pratt & Whitney Canada and Collins avionics supply chains.

The Learjet 60 occupies a mid-to-upper light business jet niche characterized by high cruise speeds and transcontinental range capability for its class. Competing models in performance and mission role include late-model mid-size light jets offering similar speed and altitudes; buyer and charter demand typically targets operators seeking high-speed, high-altitude point-to-point executive transport. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe reflect the common factors for late-1990s Learjet 60s: airframe hours, engines (PW305A) cycles, avionics upgrades such as Pro Line refurbishment, and documented ownership/registry history as recorded for N97LJ.
