April 22-May 1, 2009, Vol. 1

Even rainy weather could not dampen the excitement generated by the Learjet 85 mock-up event in Farnborough, London. Over 200 individuals, including pilots, aircraft management, charter companies, business aviation end-users and journalists, experienced in person the all-composite Learjet 85 aircraft interior and its many advantages during the mock-up’s week-long showing.

To provide a comprehensive overview, two members of the Learjet 85 team gave visitors detailed insight into the new aircraft.

The category-defying cabin received impressive reviews from visitors who commented on its overall spaciousness, the abundance of natural light and the unmatched storage space. Guests were thrilled with the sleek and modern design of the aircraft interior and noted the benefits of the Learjet 85’s fully berthable seats and pull-out executive tables.

Designed to bring new levels of comfort and efficiency to every flight, pilots also gave high marks to the spacious and well-thought cockpit and stated their eagerness to get flying on this extraordinary new aircraft.


The Learjet 85 Mock-Up Tour continues this June in Paris at Le Bourget Air Show.
