Bombardier Learjet 60XR

The Learjet 60XR modernized the fast-climbing Learjet 60 with Pro Line 21 avionics and a redesigned interior, keeping the PW305A engines that push it to 41,000 ft in under 20 minutes. Its stand-up midsize cabin and 2,405 nm range come at some of the lowest prices in the segment, offset by a longer runway requirement.

In short: The Bombardier Learjet 60XR is a Midsize Jet with a range of 2,405 nm, a cruise speed of 466 knots and room for 7 passengers. Pre-owned examples trade around $3.4M–$5M and costs roughly $2,400 an hour to operate (estimate).
