The fact is that old Lear 24 will be "almost" impossible to operate in Europe. RVSM will cause a major performance cut. Lear is not made to be flown below 29K. Donīt know how many of 24's have been hushkitted, guess not too many. Not worth to do in US where they can still fly until DRVSM will finally stop them.

Citation, even without RVSM can produce some kind of "jet" performance and for the fraction of the price per hour...
There is a super buys nowadays on Westwind 1 an 2īs , a long range aircraft for peanuts....
