Saw an ad in the WSJ this week showing a Flexjet L85 drawing.

When are you guys getting the first Lear 85? How many are on firm order? Will they replace Lear 60s or are the supplementing them?

From what I have seen it looks like a nice performer with a pretty advanced flight deck.

I think they are arriving in late 2013??? AINonline.com has the details...

I was suprised it was suprised it was going to be that long of a wait, unitl I realized that the plane is scheduled to be certified around then....
 
I believe we are slated to get the first six or seven in the 3rd quarter of 2013. They have already started selling shares with quite a few people signing up already. Not sure if it's totally replacing the 60 or not but kind of looks that way.
