Learjet 75
The Learjet 75 is one of the final developments of the Learjet line before Bombardier ended production of the brand entirely in 2021, closing out more than half a century of Learjet manufacturing. It combined an updated cabin and modern avionics with the speed-focused design philosophy that had defined every Learjet since the 1960s. Its performance still outpaced many rivals in its size class, upholding the brand's reputation even as production wound down. Its retirement marked the end of one of business aviation's most recognisable and storied names.
