Wrongly Mislabeled "Jet" Photos

[User546]

This reminds me that some people still think that anything that is a "private" airplane is called a Lear Jet!

So...if they're "wrongly mislabeled"...does that mean they are properly labeled?

I heard on TV that them there private prop learjets are dangerous. My cousin Bobby Ray flew on one of them 30 passenger learjets and said they were bouncin' all over the sky!

If it's not a Single Engine Cessna, and it's not a Commerical Jetliner, it is a Learjet. Don't you watch CNN?

I've noticed a lot of people, including some of my students think that all non airle jets are "lears". Never had one say a piston twin was a lear.

But on a side note: I saw a job on 350 stating I needed lear jet PIC time to get. I have some piston twin time, even some of that new fangeled tur-bine time. Does taht quallify as Learjet time???

Shoudl I make a new column in my log book? LearJet-Time

Those Lears fall like bricks when their engines stall!

Thank you, CNN.

Has anyone ever heard any reporter say anything even remotely accurate about any aspect of aviation?

I thought once I heard, "the airplane's wing..."

but that might have been the end of it...

Yes, but the accuracy usually ends after the phrase: "Today there was an accident..."
