Delaware Learjet 60 / 60XR Charter

For a Delaware group of six to eight going a long way, the midsize jet is usually the first aircraft that genuinely fits.

Bombardier Aerospace introduced the Learjet 60 in 1993. It is flown by a crew of 2. The type carries 7 to 8 passengers, cruises at 454 knots, tops out at 51,000 feet, covers 2,405 nautical miles and holds 55 cubic feet of baggage.

Why the Learjet 60 Fits Delaware

Midsize departures from Delaware are normally out of New Castle (KILG), and sometimes Delaware Coastal (KGED).

A published range of 2,405 nautical miles brings Houston, Punta Cana, Denver and Aspen within reach of Delaware, before the operator applies reserves and routing for the day.

Winds change the answer as well. A westbound leg into a headwind eats into range, so an aircraft that flies a route nonstop in one season may need a fuel stop in another.

The runway required on the day is a performance calculation the operator makes for that aircraft, at that weight, in the conditions on your date, so we confirm it with them for your specific trip.

Vetting Behind Every Trip

Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:

  • FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
  • Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates; reports may be provided on request.
  • Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
  • Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
