What a great video, it really deserves more views. Like and subscribed.

Thank you very much. I see my channel as the exclusive Lear 35 channel;)

@@PatrickHeinrichPilot That's good, actually. It would be excellent if you put some social network (Instagram) in the description to have other kind of material about the Lear.

I have an Instagram account but never used it. The only social platform I am on and using is LinkedIn. I am not really a fan of all those networks;)

Wonderful video - thank you.

Several fatal lear crashes have occurred where pilots made turns in low speed entry. As an owner I forbid my pilots from doing any low speed turns into any airports. I don’t care what air traffic control says. I would rather maneuver at high speed altitude and enter runway straight on, and that is only landing approach I would allow on this plane. It’s pilots clearly don’t know stall speed parameters when turning because it’s much higher than the book says!

[@PatrickHeinrichPilot]

Sounds like good advice! If I remember correctly I was flying a standard RNAV approach, nothing out of the ordinary.

Subbed. Fantastic upload - thank you. I am a big fan of the Learjet although I do not fly. Question : right at landing and for several hundred metres along the runway you turned your helm some 20 degrees to starboard. Are you actually turning the plane to the right with the flaps and ailerons and tail plane or is that actually turning the front wheel to the right at that point? I assume the former not the latter. Does the front wheel ever turn once the plane is on the ground or does it always stay straight ahead and you steer the plane on the ground with thrust from 1 or 2 engine? Thank you so much.

[@PatrickHeinrichPilot]

After landing you turn the aileron into the wind to prevent the wing from rising. You only have to do that in crosswind situations. If the wind is coming from the front you can keep the aileron neutral. We turn the aircraft at low speeds with our nose wheel steering. So normally no differential thrust or braking is necessary.

Excellent speeds class!!!

Nice landing CPT! It’s obvious that you have done that a few times.👍

[@cristoballozano2143]

Thanks for the video, its really great. Im studying for being a pilot, and i would love to know... Exactly why is it important to know the CAS? how does It helps you as a pilot when all the important speeds for flying are in the IAS gauge?. Same with EAS...(unless you want to use the formula to calculate TAS). Hope you can answer, there Is not a lot of info at internet to clearly answer this. Thank you!

[@PatrickHeinrichPilot]

CAS and EAS are not necessary while flying. They are used to calculate TAS from IAS, as shown in the video. We use IAS until approx. 30000ft, then we switch to Mach Number. I use TAS while cruising, I usually cruise at 450kt TAS. Hope that helps a little.

[@elvisnj]

What's the cost of filling this jet with fuel?

[@PatrickHeinrichPilot]

4000 litres is the maximum capacity. With the current fuel prices you are looking at 2200€ / 2500$

Hello my friend. I need a video of the sequence of landing gear lights during aproach and landing. I need to get a question about the maintenance manual and a fault that has a 35A learjet that I am working on. thank you. I'm Bruno Perlo. From Argentina.
