Overview
Program history
The 36A carried forward Learjet’s approach of offering complementary passenger-and-range configurations from a common aircraft family. Its relationship with the 35A is therefore best understood through the cabin-and-fuel tradeoff, rather than a change to a larger airframe. Specialized mission installations can alter the cabin substantially, so individual aircraft records remain important.
