The Lear 24 is a jet that can reach altitudes of 45,000 feet much more rapidly than most jets, thus saving time to get to mission. It can also cruise at 520 MPH for 3 hours. High altitude experiments can be accomplished at low cost. Also, full support is provided by the Learjet’s Pilots, Engineering, and Operations & Maintenance Staff for all experiments.
