OUR PLANE'S STORY
Built in 1966 as a Learjet 24A, our plane was destined for science rather than corporate service. It was delivered as N705NA to NASA at Moffett Field in California and put into use as a groundbreaking airborne astronomy aircraft, using powerful 12” telescopes to study space from high altitudes. The Learjet Airborne Observatory led to the development of the Kuiper Airborne Observatory and the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA), which have been used to perform research using infrared light, including studying atmospheric conditions on other planets, distant solar systems, and black holes.
In 1998, our plane was re-registered as N805NA and served as a flight research support aircraft at NASA’s Dryden Flight Research Center. Its career with NASA came to a halt on June 7, 2001 when it was damaged while performing touch-and-go landings. Although retired, its legacy as a notable aircraft in NASA’s fleet remains true today. In 2023, MotoArt brought N805NA out of the boneyard and created PlaneTags.

PlaneTags are:
- Authentic - made from actual retired aircraft fuselage, not merely stamped metal.
- Unique - each PlaneTag bears the color, thickness, and wear and tear from the portion of the fuselage from which it was cut and it is therefore rare to create two identical PlaneTags.
- Collectible - each one is numbered in a limited edition and comes attached to a display card.
- Versatile - comes with a durable metal ring, strong enough to attach to luggage or keys or display.
*Important Notice – Please Read Carefully
PlaneTags are made from actual retired aircraft fuselage, not merely stamped metal. Because PlaneTags are made from real fuselage, each PlaneTag bears the color, thickness, and wear and tear from the portion of the fuselage from which it was cut and it is therefore rare to create two identical PlaneTags. These variations and imperfections are not product flaws. They are part of the beauty of PlaneTags. As a result, you will not have an option to select the color of your PlaneTag. The images on this website are provided for reference only and should not be used as the sole basis for choosing a particular PlaneTag.
