Lear Flight Controls

I'm not typed in the current-generation Lears, but I know that several bizjet manufacturers have started going to fly-by-wire. Unless something has been added recently I don't think the Lears are so equipped. Previous generations had hydraulics, but only for utility systems like flaps, spoilers, and gear. The primary flight controls were mechanical, with a bit of boost from stability augmentation like the yaw damper.
