On September 19, 1966, the company was renamed Lear Jet Industries Inc. Bill Lear founded Learjet in the late 1950s as the Swiss American Aviation Corporation. Lear had a vision to build a jet-powered business airplane because In 1969, Learjet merged with Gates Aviation and was renamed Gates Learjet business aircraft during this time period were mainly piston-powered and slow. He Corporation. Production of aircraft then began in Tucson, AZ, as well as Wichita. began laying out plans to build a jet-powered business aircraft based on the P-16 Company headquarters moved to Tucson in 1986. In 1987, Gates Learjet was bought Swiss Fighter. He ultimately ran into opposition from the company board of directors by Integrated Acquisition and renamed Learjet Corporation. All aircraft production was to build this aircraft and sold his controlling interest to the Siegler Corporation for moved back to Wichita. Integrated Acquisition filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1990 $100 million to finance the venture. and Bombardier then stepped in to purchase Learjet. It has been a subsidiary of Bombardier ever since. The tooling for building the aircraft was purchased and moved from Switzerland to Wichita, KS. LearJet opened in September 1962, while the plant at Wichita's airport Learjet 45XR was under construction. Assembly of the first Learjet began in 1963. The norm for a The Learjet 45XR is a Learjet 45 with a 1,000-pound heavier ramp and takeoff new concept aircraft was to hand build a prototype for flight testing. Lear decided to weights as well as two TFE 731-20BR engines. take a huge risk by skipping this step and moving directly into production. This was extremely risky because the designs could fail, requiring redesign and retooling that The Learjet 45 was the first completely new model, since the original Learjet 23. It is would force the company into bankruptcy. Lear took the risk in order to beat the larger than the Learjet 31 and smaller than the 60. The cabin is 7 feet longer than the competition. 31 and has more head and shoulder room than any other aircraft in its class. The cabin has double-club seating, a galley and a full aft lavatory. The risk paid off and the Learjet 23, a six- to eight-seater, first flew on October 7, 1963. The first production model was delivered in October 1964. Despite a healthy The cockpit has a Honeywell Primus 1000 integrated avionics suite and the backlog of orders, Lear did not have the capital necessary to begin production. In Honeywell TFE 731-20BR engines are FADEC equipped. order to resolve this issue, Lear sold a portion of his holdings to the public and made the company a public-owned corporation. Several models followed, with the Model 24 The Learjet 45XR was certificated in 2003. 2 of 23 © 2019 Conklin & de Decker Associates, Inc.

  • Aviation Activity Forecasts BOWERS FIELD AIRPORT AIRPORT MASTER PLAN
    Chapter 3 – Aviation Activity Forecasts BOWERS FIELD AIRPORT AIRPORT MASTER PLAN Chapter 3 – Aviation Activity Forecasts The overall goal of aviation activity forecasting is to prepare forecasts that accurately reflect current conditions, relevant historic trends, and provide reasonable projections of future activity, which can be translated into specific airport facility needs anticipated during the next twenty years and beyond. Introduction This chapter provides updated forecasts of aviation activity for Kittitas County Airport – Bowers Field (ELN) for the twenty-year master plan horizon (2015-2035). The most recent FAA-approved aviation activity forecasts for Bowers Field were prepared in 2011 for the Airfield Needs Assessment project. Those forecasts evaluated changes in local conditions and activity that occurred since the previous master plan forecasts were prepared in 2000, and re-established base line conditions. The Needs Assessment forecasts provide the “accepted” airport-specific projections that are most relevant for comparison with the new master plan forecasts prepared for this chapter. The forecasts presented in this chapter are consistent with Bowers Field’s current and historic role as a community/regional general aviation airport. Bowers Field is the only airport in Kittitas County capable of accommodating a full range of general aviation activity, including business class turboprops and business jets. This level of capability expands the airport’s role to serve the entire county and the local Ellensburg community. The intent is to provide an updated set of aviation demand projections for Bowers Field that will permit airport management to make the decisions necessary to maintain a viable, efficient, and cost-effective facility that meets the area’s air transportation needs.

  • Aircraft Tire Data
    Aircraft tire Engineering Data Introduction Michelin manufactures a wide variety of sizes and types of tires to the exacting standards of the aircraft industry. The information included in this Data Book has been put together as an engineering and technical reference to support the users of Michelin tires. The data is, to the best of our knowledge, accurate and complete at the time of publication. To be as useful a reference tool as possible, we have chosen to include data on as many industry tire sizes as possible. Particular sizes may not be currently available from Michelin. It is advised that all critical data be verified with your Michelin representative prior to making final tire selections. The data contained herein should be used in conjunction with the various standards ; T&RA1, ETRTO2, MIL-PRF- 50413, AIR 8505 - A4 or with the airframer specifications or military design drawings. For those instances where a contradiction exists between T&RA and ETRTO, the T&RA standard has been referenced. In some cases, a tire is used for both civil and military applications. In most cases they follow the same standard. Where they do not, data for both tires are listed and identified. The aircraft application information provided in the tables is based on the most current information supplied by airframe manufacturers and/or contained in published documents. It is intended for use as general reference only. Your requirements may vary depending on the actual configuration of your aircraft. Accordingly, inquiries regarding specific models of aircraft should be directed to the applicable airframe manufacturer.

Its aim was to investigate the adequacy of the current aircraft certification requirement in relation to current and future bird strike risks on aircraft structures and windshields. Bird strikes are random events. The intersection of bird and aircraft flight paths, the mass of the bird and the part of the aircraft struck are all random elements that will determine the outcome. In managing risk all that can be controlled are the design and testing of the aircraft driven by certification specifications, the aircraft’s flight profile and, to a limited extent, the populations of birds near airports.

  • Stall Shield Devices, an Innovative Approach to Stall Prevention?
    Stall shield devices, an innovative approach to stall prevention? J.A. Stoop Delft University of Technology, Delft The Netherlands J.L. de Kroes Hilversum The Netherlands Stall has been an inherent hazard since the beginning of flying. Despite numerous efforts and a very successful stall mitigation strategy, stall as a phenomenon still exists and occasionally leads to accidents, mostly of a serious nature. This contribution explores the nature and dynamics of stall and the remedies that have been developed over time. This contribution proposes an innovative approach, by introducing a stall shield device for prevention of stall in various segments of the fleet. A multi-actor collaborative approach is suggested for the development of such a device, including the technological, control and simulation and operational aspects of the design by involving designers, pilots and investigators in its development. I. Introduction From the early days of aviation, stall has been an inherent hazard. Otto Lilienthal crashed and perished in 1896 as a result of stall. Wilbur Wright encountered stall for the first time in 1901, flying his second glider. These experiences convinced the Wright brothers to design their aircraft in a ‘canard’ configuration, facilitating an easy and gentle recovery from stall. Over the following decades, stall has remained as a fundamental hazard in flying fixed wing aircraft. Stall is a condition in which the flow over the main wing separates at high angles of attack, hindering the aircraft to gain lift from the wings. Stalls depend only on angle of attack, not airspeed. Because a correlation with airspeed exists, however, a "stall speed" is usually used in practice.
