This 1980 North American Sabreliner Is a Fast, Stylish ‘AircraftForSale’ Top Pick

Today’s Top Pick is a 1980 North American Sabreliner.

North American developed the Sabreliner business jet during the mid-1950s and first flew its prototype in 1958. The company also built military versions called T-39s in response to a request from the Air Force for jet utility and trainer designs. Like some early Dassault Falcon jets, the Sabreliner has the sleek look of a fighter. Indeed, the swept-wing aircraft’s name reflects its family resemblance to the F-86 Sabre that rose to fame during the Korean War.

North American and later Rockwell International built several hundred Sabreliners in many versions through the end of production in 1981. The jet for sale here is a 60 series model, which has a longer fuselage with more cabin space than the original design.

This 1980 Sabreliner has 11,470 hours on the airframe, 7,642 cycles since new, and 1,031 hours since the last major periodic service on engine 1, and 7,589 cycles and 165 hours since major periodic on engine 2.

The panel includes a Garmin GTN 750 Xi, Collins FD109 integrated flight system, Primus 400 radar, Collins APS 80 autopilot, dual Collins nav/comms, flight directors and DMEs Fairchild GA100 cockpit voice recorder, Collins ADF, and Skywatch TCAS.
