Why the Learjet 60 Fits New York
With 2,405 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from New York to destinations such as Charleston, Nassau and Jackson Hole, allowing for reserves and routing. From roughly November through March, snow and de-icing can add time to a New York departure, so build a little slack into winter plans.
New York trips in this class usually leave from Teterboro, about eight miles from Midtown, or from Westchester County Airport in White Plains, depending on where you are starting from on the ground. Whether the aircraft can use a particular airport on your date is the operator’s call for that aircraft, its weight and the day’s weather, and your advisor will confirm it before anything is booked.
How New York Clients Use the Learjet 60
