RADAR ESTIMATE
What N197EC is worth, and where it’s heading.
Radar's value model doesn't cover the Learjet 45XR on its own yet, so this borrows the Cessna Citation XLS+ curve, scales it to N197EC's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N197EC
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This entry covers the specific Learjet 45XR airframe bearing U.S. registration N197EC, manufacture year 2002 and manufacturer serial number 45-197. The airframe is listed in the U.S. registry to the Kansas-based corporate owner Air Crossland LLC of Columbus, KS; registration records show the aircraft in corporate ownership under that entity. The airframe is maintained and operated as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet configured for executive transport.
Operations & Cabin
The cabin of N197EC is fitted in an executive double-club layout with a forward galley and aft lavatory; while configured in a typical 8-9 passenger executive fit, the registry lists 12 seats for this airframe. Avionics aboard include a Honeywell Primus 1000 four-tube EFIS suite, Honeywell TCAS II, EGPWS and ADS-B Out, providing modern avionics capability for airspace compliance and situational awareness. Typical mission profiles for this Learjet 45XR airframe would include short- to medium-range executive transport and air taxi missions within its 1,710 nm range at cruise speeds around 445 kts, operated from its owner’s base in Columbus, KS. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft reflect the TFE731-20BR-1B engine type and the avionics suite, which influence inspection cycles and avionics support.
Model & Market Context
As a Learjet 45XR airframe, N197EC belongs to a family positioned for high-speed, transcontinental light-medium business jet missions with a high-altitude ceiling of 51,000 ft. Competing models in the market niche include other light-to-midsize business jets offering similar speed and range; buyer and charter demand for an XR with the Honeywell Primus 1000 and TCAS/EGPWS remains tied to avionics modernity and engine life.
