Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N989CG is a 1998-built Learjet 31A (serial 31-152) manufactured by Learjet Inc.. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by the corporate entity COMETIC AVIATION LLC of Concord, OH, US, which serves as its operator and base of record. Acquisition by COMETIC AVIATION LLC represents the principal documented ownership action for this airframe. The airframe is appraised at $937,236, reflecting its age, configuration, and market position among fixed-wing multi-engine business jets.
This specific Learjet 31A typically carries a common executive cabin layout configured as a 6-place club with a forward belted lavatory or divan option, though operator layouts can vary up to approximately 10-place, matching the seating capacity of this airframe. Avionics are fitted in the typical EFIS suite configuration (Bendix/King EFIS variants are common) and many installations employ KFC-series autopilot systems, though specific retrofit status may vary for this airframe. Operationally the aircraft’s 1,631 nm range and 441 kt cruise speed make it suitable for short- to mid-range executive transport missions from its home base in Concord, OH, US, supporting point-to-point business flights and charter operations. Maintenance considerations derive from the twin Honeywell TFE731 powerplants and avionics retrofit variability, factors that affect dispatch reliability and configuration-specific upkeep.
As a member of the Learjet 31A family manufactured by Learjet Inc., this airframe occupies a high-speed, high-altitude light business jet niche with a 51,000 ft service ceiling and robust cruise performance. The twin Honeywell TFE731 engines and compact cabin profile differentiate its performance characteristics and operating cost profile within the fixed-wing multi-engine category. Buyer and charter demand for such airframes depends on condition, avionics fitment, and cabin configuration; accordingly, resale and maintenance considerations for this example are influenced by its 1998 build year, serial 31-152 lineage, and the documented corporate ownership by COMETIC AVIATION LLC.
