Charter the Bombardier Learjet 55 Midsize Business Jet
Private Jets Teterboro offers jet charter services on the Bombardier Learjet 55, a midsize business jet with comfortable seating for up to 8 passengers.
Based on the Lear 28/29 models, the Learjet 55 was designed with increased wingspan and high-strength winglets to reduce drag, with its wingtips leading it to acquire the nickname “Longhorn”. The Lear 55 originally debuted in 1979 and was intended to be a production line offering more room than the smaller 25 and 35/A, but instead of a triple lineup consisting of the Learjet 54/55/56, only the Lear 55 was produced.
Later variants were released including the Learjet 55B in 1986, featuring a glass cockpit, improved runway performance, and increased range; the Learjet 55C, featuring a redesigned fuselage and aerodynamic upgrades to improve stability; and the Learjet 55 ER, an extended range variant of the Lear 55C. Production ended on the Lear 55 in 1987 with the introduction of the Learjet 60.
Today, the Lear 55 is still a terrific options for private jet charters, able to connect executives to cross-country and regional destinations with a non-stop flight range of around 2,000 nautical miles. The interior offers a standup cabin (5’7″), seating for up to 8 executives, an enclosed bathroom, and a galley for refreshments and catering during your private flight.
