50 years of the Learjet

Famed for its sleek design, fighter-like performance and as the choice of Hollywood stars and producers, the Learjet has maintained its presence amid the plethora of corporate jets that have emerged from the foresight of Bill Lear more than 50 years ago.

At this year’s National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) conference in Las Vegas, to mark the half-century of the Learjet, Bombardier will showcase its latest Learjets alongside the first of the celebrated aircraft – the Learjet 23.
