Bizjet into YPAD?
 

A friend and I saw a bizjet circling to approach Adelaide Airport a few minutes ago.
We were trying to identify the aircraft, can anyone help?

It had extremely long tip tanks and looked pretty small.

Thoughts are either a Westwind or a Lear 35 or similar...

can anyone help?

There's a LR 35 & orLR36 that lives at AD used for Aero-Med work.One (or possibly more these days) of the Co's machines has the extended wing tip tanks that look very looong compared to the smallish airframe.

Oh how I miss the 6000 ft ROC.....:{

You could do it if you tried hard enough on the right day Wally.....but I bet the eyes are watching huh!:uhoh:

...sheeeez Jabba you into voyeurism hey? Like to watch hey?:E

The body angle to achieve those sorts of ROC's would be somewhat acute for a 'frogmobile':-) Trolley dollies would all be piled up upon each other way down the back..............hmmmmm, what a vision:E

Just saw a Eclipse 500 in YGLI, yank regn, has long tip tanks 6 place jigger, gotta say a very clean basic cockpit layout.

Avgas, yes we are, unless its a female crew....it then becomes known as the Box Office....:E:E

Loved the flap lever on the Eclipse, off, takeoff & land, no pesky degrees in this jet jockeys life.....
