N980BG

This airframe, registered as N980BG, is a Learjet 31A with manufacturer serial number 31-109. The jet is on the US registry (US) and is recorded as owned by Bgmg LLC, an LLC based in San Antonio, TX, US; the current registration links the airframe directly to that limited liability company. The airframe's configuration and systems reflect the Learjet 31A specification and its listed market valuation is $986,000. Notable registry actions consist of its documented US registration and ownership by Bgmg LLC; no other historical owners or build year are published in the supplied data.

The cabin of this specific Learjet 31A is configured in the typical executive layout with 6–10 place club seating and an option for a forward belted lavatory; the entry data lists a typical 6–10 place executive layout (club seating; forward belted lavatory option) for the model. Avionics fitted on the airframe are of the AlliedSignal/Honeywell EFIS family, as is common for 31A variants, supporting modern glass-panel flightdeck operations. Operationally, the aircraft’s range of 1,290 nm and cruise of 441 kts make it suited to short- to mid-range executive missions and point-to-point charter or owner-flown trips from its San Antonio base. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe would follow Learjet 31A practices, with attention to twin TFE731 engine overhauls and systems common to AlliedSignal/Honeywell EFIS installations.

The Learjet 31A occupies a high-performance light business jet niche, offering transcontinental-competitive cruise and a high service ceiling of 51,000 ft for efficient en route profiles. Comparable models compete on speed and operating economics, and buyer or charter demand typically targets operators valuing fast point-to-point capability and compact executive cabins. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by its twin Honeywell TFE731-2-3B engines, EFIS avionics pedigree, and the documented market valuation of $986,000, which buyers factor into engine life remaining, avionics condition, and overall inspected airframe condition.
