Learjet 45XR

The new Bombardier Learjet 45 is Learjet's latest entry into the medium size corporate jet market.

Flying faster, higher and farther with more passengers and range flexibility than any aircraft in its class, the Learjet 45 aircraft is a true overachiever. Featuring the longest cabin and more seated head - shoulder - and legroom than competitors, the super light Learjet 45* XR* aircraft provides premium comfort. Its unique combination of agility, aesthetics and performance gives you the ultimate freedom to travel on your terms.

The Learjet 45 is of classic Learjet design and layout. However a number of key design changes were made early into the 45's design life including a larger fin and rudder, extended engine pylons, smaller delta fins, full span elevators, and single piece flaps.

Larger than the Learjet 31 and smaller than the Learjet 60, Learjet states that the Learjet 45's 1.50m (4.9ft) high and 1.55m (5.1ft) wide cabin will provide more head and shoulder room than any other aircraft in its class. The cabin is designed to accommodate double club seating, a galley and a full width aft rest room, while eight windows line each side of the cabin.

The 20 FADEC equipped version of the proven AlliedSignal TFE731 engine was developed in cooperation with Learjet for the 45 and incorporates 60 design changes to increase fuel economy and reduce operating and maintenance costs.

While Learjet 45 retains overall program leadership, and is responsible for the aircraft's design, other Bombardier Group companies participate in Learjet 45 production.
