Overview
Program history
The Model 29 developed the Longhorn-wing concept for missions placing greater emphasis on endurance than cabin capacity. Together with the 28, it marked Learjet’s move away from tip tanks toward an aerodynamically revised wing. The program’s importance also lies in the wing-development experience carried into later Learjets, including the larger-cabin 55.
