Bombardier to Display Full-size Interior Mock-up of New Learjet 75 Liberty in Scottsdale, Arizona
December 18 2019 - 11:01AM
Bombardier is delighted to announce that the full-size interior
mock-up of its newest light-category aircraft, the Learjet 75
Liberty, will be on display in Scottsdale, Arizona, Dec. 27-29. The
mockup had a remarkable world debut in October at the 2019 NBAA
Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition in Las Vegas and has
been in high demand ever since.
“The success of the Learjet 75 Liberty mock-up
reflects a strong desire from the market for a light jet that
offers more – more comfort, more power and more range,” said Peter
Likoray, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales and Marketing,
Bombardier Business Aircraft. “Bombardier is proud to offer the
world’s best-performing light jet at a price point and operating
costs that make it accessible to more customers than ever
before.”
The full-size interior mock-op of the Learjet 75
Liberty will be available for private viewing by appointment from
Friday, Dec. 27, to Sunday, Dec. 29, at Ross Aviation. Scottsdale,
a popular winter destination, is a short drive from Phoenix and
Glendale, Arizona. Guests will be able to stretch out in the
segment’s only Executive Suite and experience a level of
spaciousness and comfort that is unprecedented in the light jet
category.
The mock-up debuted to overwhelmingly positive
reviews at NBAA-BACE in Las Vegas in October. Throughout the
exhibition, visitors lined up to see the interior of Bombardier’s
much-anticipated new Learjet. Shortly after the airshow, the
mock-up made another notable appearance at Wings Wheels Water, a
prestigious kick-off event for the Fort Lauderdale International
Boat Show, where it was admired by hundreds of influential
attendees and sought after for private customer viewings.
The Learjet 75 Liberty, which will enter service
in mid-2020, features a six-seat configuration that gives light jet
passengers unprecedented freedom to stretch out. A standard pocket
door between the cockpit and Executive Suite delivers a quieter
flight, while retractable side tables and stowable ottomans ensure
productivity and comfort.
Like all Learjet aircraft, the Learjet 75
Liberty is certified to the FAA’s more stringent Part 25
regulations, applicable to commercial airliners, unlike most
competitors in the light jet category that are certified to Part 23
regulations.
The Learjet 75 Liberty features Bombardier’s
signature smooth ride and superior performance at an exceptional
value proposition, and with the same operating costs as those of
competitor aircraft that offer less.
The Learjet 75 Liberty is the fastest aircraft
in the light jet segment with longer range than the competition.
Its range of 2,080 nautical miles can connect Las Vegas to New
York, Seattle to Washington, D.C., and Mexico City to San
Francisco, nonstop.*
