Lear 31, 45, 60 info needed
Hi All,
We are currently operating a G4 and are looking to acquire a small/mid jet for our smaller missions within the US. Purchase price is not as much of a concern as operating cost is. I have been doing my homework and narrowed down our options to the Lear 31, 45, and 60. Most DOC reports I have seen show that the lowest operating cost for these 3 models is the Lear 45, burning an average of 200gal/hr. (same as the Lear 31) with the Lear 60 burning 215gal/hr. Looking for some pilots with real world experience in these model Lear's to give me some real numbers as far as fuel burn, useable payload, reliability and range go. As well as any other pro's and con's they have found through their experience in these jets. Any information would be much appreciated.
