Learjet 60

The Learjet 60 is a mid-size cabin, medium-range business jet manufactured by Bombardier Aerospace in Wichita, Kansas. It is an improved version of the Learjet 55, with a longer fuselage and more powerful turbofan engines: two Pratt and Whitney Canada PW305A engines of 4,600 lbf each, with FADEC. It first flew on 10 October 1990 and received FAA certification in January 1993. Its modifications included an all-new inboard wing cuff and wing-to-body fairing, a new engine pylon and a distinctive ogive winglet trailing edge, and the Learjet Model 35 empennage was attached to the larger fuselage. Range is 2,405 nautical miles with four passengers and two crew. In July 2012 Bombardier announced a temporary production pause of the latest variant, the Learjet 60XR, from the fourth quarter of 2012.
