These two Learjets are dependable options for customers interested in mid-size models. With inventory levels rising, we have been seeing a drop in asking prices. This aircraft has certainly shown its value in the mid-size class. It is also one of the most fuel-efficient jets in the category while other models have caught up on speed, the Learjet 60 claims a substantial advantage over other models in fuel burned per hour. Using this technology helped reduce the overall drag by 4%. It also boasts an aerodynamic design that was built from utilizing NASA and Boeing Tranair computational fluid dynamics to locate points of drag.
It can climb to a cruise of 43,000 feet in less than 14 minutes when loaded at maximum takeoff weight. Some of the key factors that set this aircraft apart from the rest of the class come from its cruise performance. It is a fully integrated suite with many key upgrades that truly separate the two aircrafts (see specifications for similarities).

The Learjet 60XR is an improved version and is equipped with Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics. The Learjet 60 is equipped with Pro Line 4 Avionics and is controlled by an Integrated Avionics Processing System (IAPS). The cabin is the biggest of all the Learjet models, and can feature seven or eight passengers depending on the size of the divan. The aircrafts are powered by two Pratt & Whitney PW305A engines that produce 4,600 lbs of thrust at takeoff.
The Learjet 60XR came as a derivative aircraft which took its first flight in 2006. This aircraft was first introduced as the Model 60 Learjet in 1993, and is the similar to the design adapted by Bill Lear from a Swiss military trainer in the early 1960s. In July 2012 Bombardier Aerospace announced a temporary “production pause” of the latest variant Learjet 60XR to begin in the fourth quarter of 2012. Powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada 305A engines, it has a range (with 4 passengers and 2 crew) of 2,405 nautical miles (4,454 km) with NBAA 100 nmi (190 km) reserves, ISA. The Learjet 60 is a mid-size cabin, medium-range business jet aircraft manufactured by Bombardier Aerospace in Wichita, Kansas, USA.
