LR 25B w\Dee Howard Mark II Wing
Out of HOU one night empty
10K fpm through 30,000 holding 250 kts

But the 24D was more all around fun



10K/min through 30K? 3 mins to 30,000ft?

lots of 25 time here and that sounds like a bit O' hangar talk.




;)

That's slow... I just did an Atlantic crossing at M0.85 & FL450... And we were heavy, that was part of a nearly 11 hour flight...


My ass gets sore after 2 1/2 hours.....

I agree with Capt. hard to sell long range planes at .76-.78 anymore..

GV/Glex's need to right to FL410, cruise .85+ and go 11+ hours. Even LRC shouldnt fall below .80 to get 13 hrs...

Heck, even the new Falcons are .85/6000 mile airplanes.

fast is good.

now...a 13 hour ass? thats another issue.


:)
 
here is another question

I have never flown a 60, but I was wondering which climbs harder, the 24 or the 60?

24 will whip a 60. It has to climb like that in order to get high so it won't guzzle all that gas. Most light #2 at the hold short line.
 
You jet drivers ain't got nothin' on me... Saab 340 - A model, no pax, light on the gas, 160 kts, five hundred.... and FIFTY fpm through 10,000. :beer:
 
Most lears will out climb most, but get um in cruise and they are a speed bump to most!

I wish I flew that plane...
however, I dont fly anything close to it just yet...see the a/c I've flown.

Thank Nike for that paint job they call "orange orca."

As a Jetta owner myself, I'd say its faster than the airplanes you've flown. LOL.

P.S. I like your photography skills. Got one of your shots hanging in my "I love myself" room.

And then pass the CE-750 that's on the ground at the local Citation Service Center.

So you own a Jetta and you're Ragging on someone about what airplanes they've flown, at least you're a cocky gay man :)
 
No lears aren't the fastest around but I must say I think all around they are the most fun. They really are just good flying aircraft.

Hey now, jettas arent gay. The babes flock to me like a swarm of bees....sometimes
 
I had the opportunity to fly a new Falcon50ex. That is a sweet sircraft and fast down low. If I remember correctly 360+ kts at 10,000 feet.
 
Hey CYork25. When you gonna come south a bit and see me.

I'm waiting for you to get that Extra dusted off and come and play.

24 is definitely the hardest climbing you'll likely fly.

G200, LR25D with 1200 lbs of fuel, two pilots, 3000 to FL310 in 2:58. I'm not bragging, cause I think Lears suck, but I witnessed it first hand from the yoke.

They are very nice, they are about the nicest hand flying aircraft around, I have about 2,500 hours in 50EX's... But by the end of the year won't be flying them anymore... :(

370 KIAS is Vmo at 10,000ft. 350 KIAS is Vmo at Sea Level... .86 is Mmo...

What did you do? Glide to a landing???

Departing in a 20 series Lear with 1,200 lbs of fuel????? :eek: I used to plan to LAND the Lear 35 with 1,500 lbs remaining, and that thing sipped fuel compared to the 20 series...
