Bombardier Learjet 55
The Bombardier Learjet 55 is a distinguished mid-size business jet that combines the legendary performance and efficiency of the Learjet brand with the comfort and luxury demanded by today’s private charter clients. Launched in the late 1970s, the Learjet 55 quickly became a symbol of executive travel, offering a balance of speed, range, and passenger comfort that is still highly regarded in the private aviation industry.
Performance and Capabilities
The Learjet 55 is powered by two Honeywell TFE731-3A-2B engines, each delivering 3,700 pounds of thrust. This powerhouse combination enables the aircraft to reach a cruising speed of 458 knots (528 mph) and a maximum altitude of 51,000 feet. The Learjet 55’s range of approximately 2,000 nautical miles makes it an ideal choice for medium-range flights, connecting major business hubs such as New York to Miami or Los Angeles to Denver without the need for refueling stops.
With its exceptional climb rate and short runway capabilities, the Learjet 55 offers unmatched flexibility, allowing access to smaller airports that are closer to final destinations, reducing overall travel time.
Interior and Comfort
The Bombardier Learjet 55 is designed to provide a luxurious and comfortable travel experience. The cabin can accommodate up to 8 passengers in a spacious layout, offering both club seating and divan options. With a cabin length of 13.7 feet, width of 5.9 feet, and height of 5.7 feet, the Learjet 55 provides ample room for passengers to relax, work, or hold meetings during the flight.
The aircraft’s interior is equipped with high-quality materials, customizable lighting, and advanced soundproofing to ensure a serene environment. The Learjet 55 also features a fully enclosed lavatory and a small galley, adding to the overall comfort and convenience for passengers.
Avionics and Technology
