N924PS Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
N924PS sits in the midsize segment where operating costs balance against cabin comfort and range. The Learjet 60 covers 2,405 NM at 457 knots. 2x Pratt & Whitney Canada PW305A at 4,600 lbs each keep fuel burn predictable.
Mission Profile
The Learjet 60 seats up to 8 passengers in a 17.7 ft by 5.9 ft by 5.7 ft cabin. N924PS delivers the stand-up headroom and seating configurations that distinguish midsize jets from their light-jet counterparts.
Charter Authorization
N924PS holds active Part 135 authorization for charter. The Learjet 60 covers domestic city pairs efficiently. Reach out to discuss this aircraft or alternatives in the midsize category.
Insider Note
Buyers comparing midsize jets should focus on three variables: engine program enrollment, avionics generation, and interior condition. N924PS's 1995 manufacture date and active Part 135 status suggest the aircraft is maintained to revenue-service standards, which typically exceeds Part 91 maintenance requirements.
Charter & Acquisition Briefing
Registration N924PS is a 1995 helicopter held by . This briefing covers the charter economics and operational context for this rotorcraft.
Fleet Position
Over 10,000 helicopters are on active U.S. registrations. FAA data shows N924PS based in —, . The U.S. helicopter fleet serves EMS, offshore oil and gas, law enforcement, utility, VIP transport, and flight training. Maintenance infrastructure is extensive, with turbine helicopter service available at most major airports.
Charter Availability
N924PS is Part 135 charter authorized. Helicopter charter rates range from $1,500 to $8,000 per flight hour depending on type and configuration. VIP helicopter charter serves urban transfers (Manhattan to JFK in 8 minutes), resort access, and event transportation where ground travel times exceed 2 hours.
Market Position
As a 1995 airframe, N924PS is a classic helicopter. Pre-owned values sit at $200K to $1.5M. Classic helicopters remain operationally viable when properly maintained. Turbine engine overhaul programs provide continued support, and the large installed base ensures parts availability.
Pre-buy focus: turbine engine condition (overhaul costs range from $150,000 to $400,000 depending on engine type), transmission and gearbox status, dynamic component times, and corrosion inspection results.
Mission Profile
Helicopters serve point-to-point missions between 10 and 300 nautical miles. Manhattan heliport to Teterboro Airport in 8 minutes. Downtown Los Angeles to Van Nuys in 12 minutes. Resort to resort along coastlines with no airport required. The helicopter eliminates ground transfer time entirely.
When to Choose Something Else
Pass on helicopters if noise sensitivity matters. Helicopters produce significantly more noise than fixed-wing aircraft, and many communities restrict helicopter operations with curfews and flight path limitations. Verify local helicopter restrictions before committing to regular operations.
Ownership & Operations
Aircraft management companies handle the operational complexity of jet ownership. They provide crew, maintenance tracking, regulatory compliance, insurance, and hangar coordination. Management fees run $8,000 to $25,000 per month depending on aircraft size. For owners who fly 100 to 300 hours annually, professional management reduces risk and administrative burden while maintaining access to Part 135 charter revenue.
Pre-Purchase Considerations
Engine program enrollment significantly affects aircraft value and operating economics. Programs like Rolls-Royce CorporateCare, Pratt & Whitney Eagle Service Plan, and Honeywell MSP spread major engine costs into predictable hourly rates. Aircraft enrolled in these programs command 10 to 20% higher resale values than non-enrolled equivalents because buyers avoid the risk of unbudgeted engine overhauls.
Charter Market Context
The Jet Finder sources charter aircraft from a network of vetted Part 135 operators. We do not own aircraft. This broker model ensures clients see competitive options across multiple operators rather than being limited to a single fleet. Pricing transparency comes from comparing 3 to 5 operator quotes on every request. The client sees all options and chooses based on aircraft, price, and operator quality.
