The Learjet 35 gives Puerto Rico more range than the 31 from San Juan (SJU), seating 6 to 8 with 2,125 nautical miles of reach. It covers SJU to the US East Coast, the Gulf, or northern South America nonstop. A long-serving, widely available light jet.
Learjet built the 35 from 1974, and it became one of the most produced business jets, cruising near 464 knots at up to 45,000 feet. Its large operator base keeps availability strong.
