Learjet Cost

Enhancements included folded wingtips (also seen on the Bombardier 7000) to lower aerodynamic resistance while reducing overall mass - an additional 4% reach over its forerunner. This means the plane can travel 2,040 nm (3,778 km) - which means Los Angeles to Washington D.C., London to St. Petersburg or Hong Kong to New Delhi without refueling - a considerable flight path for a lightweight plane.

If the Learjet 75 doesn't have to exhaust its full reach, it can cross at Mach 0.81 (534mph/860kph) - making it one of the lightest jetliners on the market (the Syber Jet SJ30 is the fastest). Having a max operational height of 51,000 feet allows the Learjet 75 to operate over both business travel and adverse conditions, enabling a more immediate and effective itinerary.

Nobody will buy a lightweight for a large cab, but a shallow bottom in the Learjet 75 significantly enhances the dimensions and level of cab for a small one. Its own stateroom is 5ft 1in broad and 4ft 11in high, in line with the biggest staterooms in the lightweight aircraft family.

Using the basic flight deck design, the stateroom can accommodate up to nine guests with two twin seats and a taped toilet. The Learjet 75 has a toilet in the stateroom, six pop-up screens with easy entry to entertainments and a stateroom control system, and broadband connectivity.

The Learjet 75 has a 65 cc baggage compartment, of which 15 cc is onboard. Altogether, the plane can transport about six Golf Cases, seven cases and four hand baggage items. There' also a small kitchen with two icecream trays and a micro-wave - a characteristic most lightweight jetliners don't have.

The Learjet 75's cabin is equipped with a 5,000 glider and a man-made visual system that reduces the pilot's work load and increases overall security. A new Learjet 75 has a listed cost of $13.8 million, which is significantly more than any other option on the opener. From the first Learjet 75 shipments, rivals such as Embraer have been releasing updated version of their lightweight aircraft, while Bombardier has kept the Learjet 75 unaffected.

Since the new Learjet 75 has not been selling for some considerable amount of now, it has been causing problems lately. Only 14 Learjet 75s were shipped in 2017 - a disturbingly low number considering that Embraer shipped 54 Phenom 300s in the same year. Probably the order of a new Learjet 75 could be bargained with a high rebate on the listed fare.

Regarding the used vehicle segment, figures from AMSTAT show that the offer prices averaged USD 6.7 million in March 2018, with 3.7% (4 aircraft) of the current operating portfolio for sales. Mean period of stay on the store before selling is 179 workdays. By 2014, the mean value of second-hand aircrafts available on the second-hand markets is 75 49% of the listed cost of a new one.

That corresponds to an annual amortization of 12.5% on annual basis, slightly above the sector standard of 10% per year (assuming the plane was bought at listed price). Out of the globally operating portfolio, 83 planes are in North America, 16 in South/Central America, 5 in Western Europe; Asia, Eastern Europe and MEA each have only one each.

According to Conklin and de Decker, the Learjet 75 will cost $1,903 per hour for operation. That' a few hundred bucks more than rivals like the Phenom 300 and Citation CJ3+. Part of this is due to the airplane's airspeed, which increases propellant use.

For the year, the overhead cost will be $325,425,425, which covers non-hourly expenses such as crewing wages and education, insurances, and vehicle overhead.
