Pilot Services

This site has been created by Thomas Mahoney Jr., a Learjet type-rated Airline Transport Pilot. I provide Contract Pilot Services in the South Florida area, Aircraft Registration Services, Aircraft Management and a host of other services as described on this page.

My skills as a pilot are specialized in the Learjet 35, with 2,777 hours of experience in that particular model, 927 hours in the Learjet 55 and 517 hours in the Learjet 60 (hours updated August 4, 2012).

A listing of all Learjet serial numbers that I have flown is located here: XLS (last updated February 8, 2011).

I am available to perform a pre-purchase pre-flight or in-flight inspection of your Learjet in the South Florida area if you are in need of one or even both. I can usually discover a list of items before I leave the ground and another list once airborne, on any aircraft that I fly for the first time. Also, I can connect you to your choice of FAA Certified Repair Stations with Learjet experience if you are in need of a thorough airworthiness pre-purchase inspection. It is highly recommended to have a pre-purchase inspection performed by someone not involved in the purchase (such as a neutral maintenance shop). Do not rely on the seller's claim that the aircraft you are purchasing is airworthy/mechanically sound.

Contact Information

Please feel free to contact me via an email to: tom [at] mahoney [dot] aero or call my cellular telephone at: +1-614-352-8521 if I may be of assistance in any of the capacities that I may be able to provide to you.

Aircraft Locating Service

If you have located a Learjet, but want to find out if it is worth spending thousands of dollars on traveling to Florida to preview your potential purchase in person, call me. I can go to the prospect aircraft, visually inspect it on the ramp or in the owner's hangar, take pictures and report my observations back to you to make sure that the advertisement meets your expectations.

Consultation Services

If you need regulatory guidance, assistance with acquiring a Letter of Agreement/Authorization, finding out what authorizations you need prior to operating or, in general, would like to have another mind thinking about your situation, you may want to give me a call. FCC radio licenses, satellite telephones, contract fuel companies, aircraft registration, international trip planning, et cetera--are a few examples.

Aircraft Registration N-Numbers Available For Use From Me

I am announcing the availability of the following special vanity N-numbers for Aircraft registered or to be registered in the United States. Please feel free to contact me to discuss the transfer of any of these N-numbers to you. I provide step-by-step assistance to you to have these N-numbers assigned to your aircraft or to an aircraft that you are purchasing:

Vanity N-Numbers Available
* 2-Digit	N1Q, N3U, N3V, N5L, N9K, N9X

Learjet 23 (s/n 001 & 002)	N801L, N802L 50th Anniversary of the First Flight of a Learjet: 10/7/2013
Unique Registrations	N14T, N1GG, N1JZ, N1LN, N1KD, N1LD, N1LT, N1MF, N1MJ, N1MK, N1PD, N1PT, N1UV, N10JM, N10TM, N10000, N3000, N2AT, N3FT, N3NA, N3TJ, N4NA, N501 N5JR, N6BB, N6ER, N6LD, N6SA, N7JT

The significance of N801L and N802L is that those were the N-numbers assigned to the first and second Learjets (Model 23s) ever produced, with the second Learjet 23 still on display in the National Air & Space Museum. Photos and info on N801L, N802L. If you have an old 23 that you would like to assign as N801L or N802L, give me a call! These N-numbers will make people look at least twice.

* There are only 216 total 2-digit (the letter N, one numeral and one letter) N-numbers available on the US Registry--1 through 9 and A through Z excluding letters I and O. All are either assigned to an aircraft or reserved to an individual. These 2-digit N-numbers are extremely difficult to obtain, however, I have managed to reserve four 2-digit N-numbers in my name for your future registration needs (I have 22% of all unassigned 2-digit N-numbers, or 8 of about 36). This makes me the holder of the most 2-digit N-number reservations.

Please contact me via an email to: tom [at] mahoney [dot] aero or call my cellular telephone at: +1-614-352-8521 if I can assist you in the selection of one of these unique vanity N-numbers.

A complete listing of my special registration numbers can be found on the FAA Registry's website in the name of Thomas Mahoney Jr Aircraft Sales. Note: some of these listed registrations may have already been transferred to other persons--sorry.
