The Learjet 35 has a relatively long range for a private jet, and can cruise at speeds as high as 451 ktas, or 424 ktas with four passengers.  Fuel consumption is excellent: the 31A burns only 177 pounds of fuel per hour.  For comparison’s sake, that’s 14 pounds fewer than the Hawker 400XP and 64 pounds fewer than the Citation X.  A few other details make the Learjet 35 a popular private jet.  First of all, it meets FAR part 36 noise standards, making it a kind of “good neighbor” at airports.  Furthermore, the avionics system is completely redesigned from previous models, giving pilots an uncluttered control panel that is easy to work with.  Pilots have also commented on its agility and excellent performance capabilities. The Learjet 35 is known, above all, for its range。It can fly 1,400 miles nonstop.

The Learjet 35 began as the Learjet 25BGF (with GF referring to “Garrett Fan”), with a then-new TFE731 turbofan engine mounted on the left side replacing the Lear 25’s GE CJ610 engine.

This test bed aircraft first flew in May, 1971 with the full prototype featuring a larger wing (and the additional window) in January 1973. Deliveries began the following year. Production of the 35/36 series ended in 1994.

The Lear 35 features the straight wing with tapered leading edge and distinctive tip tanks at either end. It has five windows on the right hand side of the cabin and four on the left (fewer than the Lear 31 series). The engines are rear fuselage mounted behind which is the T-tail with swept fin and tailplane.

Despite its mild manners and good looks, the Learjet 35 is a superman among light business aircraft. Load it up and fly it high! The Learjet 35 is ready to transport you and your colleagues anywhere, anytime. From the Rocky Mountains to the Namibian Plains, no aircraft will compare in the speed, agility and sheer ability of the Learjet 35. There are few light jets in the world today that are as rugged as the Learjet 35. It offers design features and cabin amenities that are seen only in midsize jets.

The Learjet 35 will transport you across the United States at altitudes almost 10 miles above the ground, well above the weather – and the competition. The Learjet fleet has amassed more than four billion flight miles. Reliability is the primary reason these aircraft are routinely chosen for charter use.
