The Bombardier Learjet 60XR is the evolution of the Lear 55/60 series of aircraft. It combines both cabin size and reasonable operating cost for its owners. The Lear 60XR includes improved breaking over the Lear 60. This is accomplished by the inclusion of a 3 rotor breaking system which can also be added to the classic Lear 60 as a retrofit. The Lear 60XR also includes an upgraded avionics suite, the Rockwell Collins Proline 21 avionics suite.
The Lear 60XR comes standard with an APU where as with the classic Lear 60 it was an option. The APU is only certified for ground operation and in order service the batteries you need to remove the APU. The APU placement is one of the few maintenance complaints on the aircraft. As mid size aircraft go the Lear 60XR/Lear 60 aircraft are well liked aircraft with a wide cabin and external baggage storage. The Lear 60XR cabin was redesigned and the new cabin just feels bigger. One thing you can say about the Lear 60XR is that they fly fast and high. It is certified up to 51k feet which allows it to climb over some weather. The Lear 60 class of aircraft’s biggest drawback is that it is a runway hog. This was somewhat mitigated with the upgraded breaking system but it still takes longer to stop than many of its competitors.
The Lear 60/60XR competes with the Hawker 800XP/900XP and the prices have really come down in the past 2 years. The mid size jet market is really a buyers market with a lot of quality aircraft to choose from.
