About this aircraft
- The Learjet 55, a low-wing cantilever business jet, made its first flight in 1979 and was introduced to the market in 1981.

History
The Learjet 55’s wing design and engines drew on the Learjet 20 and Learjet 30 series. The first prototype flew in 1979 and received FAA certification in 1981. At the time, the aircraft’s cabin was the largest of all the Learjet models.
Over 100 aircraft were built until production ceased in 1986. Bombardier continued delivering variations like the 55B and 55C until 1993.
Manufacturer
Bombardier Aviation (formerly Bombardier Aerospace) manufactures business, commercial and specialised aircraft. The company began with the acquisition of several established aviation companies, starting with Canadair in 1986 and followed by Short Brothers in 1989, Learjet in 1990 and Boeing subsidiary De Havilland Aircraft of Canada in 1992.
Following commercial aviation partnerships with Chinese state-owned manufacturer Comac and multinational aerospace corporation Airbus, Bombardier eventually sold de Havilland and its aerostructures division to focus solely on business aircraft.
Headquartered in Montreal, Canada, today Bombardier has over 60,000 employees and is a leading global manufacturer of aircraft and trains with sites in 25 countries.
