That is the signature Dumont Aviation exterior paint scheme. That means the paint is about 5 plus years old. That scheme was also on a number of Falcon 2000s, a Beechjet 400, a Gulfstream G-IVSP, and more. The company doesn't exist anymore, but you can see their old fleet of aircraft all around, because of this easily recognizable paint scheme.

What a fantastic Flyer!

For sale? That's a corporate airplane. Got to pay for TWO PILOTS, to fly that airplane. 51,000 feet...Wow! Smooth ride machine.👍

Oh, I would say that the Blue Colour Scheme of Learjet 31a I-CFLY is the best that I have seen.

Well what gets people into a bind is the service of the engines. Average cost per engine for tear down and overhaul at the time mark set forth by the manufacture can average $250,000 per engine. This is one reason why many of the Lears are retired early, can’t justify the cost to service the engines. Since the older aircraft are not semi automated or automated you will need a copilot to fly it if you can work your way up to a jet rating. This costs money. Compared to a Cirrus or a Beech Premier One which have a lot of automation to assist the pilot, the Lears are a whole other beast.

I once got to ride in a Citation 2, and it also had a restroom though it was all the way in the back, and not meant to be a full-time seat (perhaps this one is also not meant to be). I actually had to go, but the pilot said it was ok only if I had to urinate.

For your information, the lear 31 series has the same type rating as the Lear 35. The type rating is "Lr-Jet". The checkrude us to ATP standards. So a private pilot certificate won't do it! Also it is not single pilot certified. So 2 pilots are required. The downward fins in the rear are called strakes! They reduce dutch roll.

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

You can get type rated as a private pilot on any jet.

[@barryrothman4692]

@rtbrtb_dutchy4183 private pilot will have to show ATP written test results and log books documenting his time. Examiner will administer the checkride, probably in the simulator. Checkride will be to ATP standards. Upon successful completion of checkride he will issued an ATP multi certificate with a LR-JET type rating. I am LR-JET typed and former chief pilot of a 135 air carrier.

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

@@barryrothman4692 a private pilot can get a type rating without an ATP certificate and no, they don’t have to be issued one either. I’m typed on the Lear as well, not that it matters though.

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

@@barryrothman4692 by the way, we have had young guys typed on jets, when they didn't have their ATP and didn't qualify for the ATP, yet. But they had their commercial license.

[@learndesignwithdev]

But those old aircraft would have had their airframe deteriorated as the pressure cycle renders them useless after a certain thousand hours. You'll have to spend more than 2 Million dollars to make them air worthy. Also the cost to have 2 Pilots and fuel. 😅

[@FallenPhoenix86]

It's a private jet, not an airliner, its not going to be flying multiple times per day so it won't burn through cycles at any significant rate.

[@learndesignwithdev]

@@FallenPhoenix86 Well I was of the opinion that a Cessna 150 or 180 has life cycle of around 25,000 hrs (as stated by Cessna) so a pressurized cabin aircraft has to be less than that. So an aircraft with 9,000 hrs would be at the end of its life and would demand a lot more money to make it safe to fly again. Here to be corrected if I'm wrong. 🫡

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

@@learndesignwithdevyou are wrong. Airlines can have 100,000 plus hours on them. Business jets could as well, just that that never happens. Don’t compare it with a c-152. A business jet with 9000 hours is nothing. It’s nowhere near the end of its life.

@@rtbrtb_dutchy4183 I flew the 35A (C-21A) in the 80s. WAY over-powered and NOT friendly to the novice crew.

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

@@EJWash57 I got about 4400 hours in Lears. About 500 in the 35, 200 in the 55 and 3700 in 24/25. To me, the 35 felt sluggish and underpowered compared to the 24 and 25. The 35 you flew, had the Century III wings, which made it much more docile. Now, having said all that, the 35/36 just like the 24/25 were much harder to fly than the 31, due to the tip tanks. Especially if you were landing with fuel left in the tips.
