Learjet 60XR: The Epitome of Speed and Luxury in Private Aviation
The Learjet 60XR stands as a masterpiece in the midsize business jet category, representing the culmination of Bombardier's legendary Learjet heritage. With its distinctive blend of speed, range, and cabin comfort, this sophisticated aircraft delivers exceptional performance and luxury that continues to set industry standards even years after its final production.
Unmatched Performance Capabilities
The Learjet 60XR is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW305A engines, delivering an impressive 4,600 pounds of thrust each. This powerful combination enables extraordinary performance metrics that few competitors can match:
- Maximum cruising speed: 513 mph (826 km/h)
- High-speed cruise: Mach 0.81
- Maximum operating altitude: 51,000 feet (15,545 meters)
- Range: 2,405 nautical miles (4,454 km)
- Time to climb to 41,000 feet: Just 18.5 minutes
- Takeoff distance: 5,450 feet (1,661 meters)
- Landing distance: 3,420 feet (1,042 meters)
The aircraft's exceptional climb rate allows it to quickly reach optimal cruising altitudes above commercial traffic and weather disturbances, ensuring smooth and efficient flights even in challenging conditions. Its ability to operate from shorter runways opens access to thousands of airports unavailable to commercial aircraft.
Sophisticated Cabin Experience
The Learjet 60XR cabin reflects the perfect balance between form and function:
- Cabin length: 17 feet 7 inches (5.36 meters)
- Cabin width: 5 feet 11 inches (1.81 meters)
- Cabin height: 5 feet 9 inches (1.74 meters)
- Typical configuration: 7-8 passengers
- Baggage capacity: 55 cubic feet (1.56 cubic meters)
What distinguishes the 60XR is its thoughtful interior design that maximizes the use of space. The stand-up cabin features a flat floor throughout, creating a spacious environment for passengers to move comfortably. The aircraft typically offers a forward club seating arrangement, followed by individual seats or a divan in the aft section.
Premium materials grace every surface – hand-selected leather seating, polished wood veneer tables, plush carpeting, and meticulously crafted cabinetry. The cabin includes a refreshment center and a fully enclosed lavatory at the rear, providing complete privacy and comfort on longer flights.
