RADAR ESTIMATE
What N166RL is worth, and where it’s heading.
Radar's value model doesn't cover the IAI 1125 Astra SPX on its own yet, so this borrows the Cessna Citation XLS+ curve, scales it to N166RL's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N166RL
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This airframe, registered as N166RL, is an Israel Aircraft Industries-built IAI 1125 Astra SPX completed in 1990 with serial number 047. The airframe is owned by LM Aerospace Corp (a corporation based in Deerfield Beach, FL, US) and is maintained on the US civil registry. Listing notes indicate auxiliary long-range tanks were fitted to this airframe, a notable modification affecting range and mission capability.
Operations & Cabin
The cabin of this Astra SPX is configured in an executive six-to-nine place layout with a forward galley and a belted aft lavatory; auxiliary long-range tanks fitted on this airframe per listing notes expand endurance for extended missions. Avionics installed on this airframe match typical SPX outfitting and include dual Collins EFIS-86 flight directors, dual UNS-1LW FMS (WAAS/LPV) units, Collins APS-85 autopilot and Collins WXR-850 weather radar, supporting complex IFR routing and modern navigation procedures. Based in Deerfield Beach, Florida under corporate ownership, the aircraft is well suited to executive transport, business transcontinental hops and ferry flights that exploit the long-range tank modification. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include support for the TFE731 engine family and avionics software/WAAS updates.
Model & Market Context
The IAI 1125 Astra SPX occupies the light to midsize bizjet niche with relatively high cruise speed and a 45,000 ft ceiling, competing with contemporaries from Learjet and Gulfstream/continued light business jets depending on outfitting. Buyers and charter operators value the SPX for speed and range when auxiliary tanks are present, though market demand is conditioned by age, avionics standards and engine time. Resale and maintenance considerations for this example include lifecycle costs for the Garrett/Honeywell TFE731 series, certification and continued airworthiness of the SPX-specific systems, and the impact of the long-range tank modification on operator mission flexibility.
