Index ≈ ×1.22 to ×1.49 on the aircraft value, already with ferry, ANAC nationalization, IPI and ICMS.
Market estimate: value + ferry + ANAC nationalization + taxes, no legal review. II, PIS and COFINS are 0% for aircraft (NCM 88.02); IPI is 6.5% (3.25% for air taxi) until Dec 31, 2026; ~4% ICMS only through a qualified importer (Agreement 75/91).
Operate = direct cost/hour (fuel + maintenance + engine); excludes fixed costs (hangar, crew, insurance). World: hourly rate published by charter operators. Brazil: charter is quoted per leg, so the hourly figure is an estimate from route quotes.

Learjet 31A, modernized version of the Lear 31 with winglets. Replacement for the Lear 25.
How much runway the Learjet 31A needs to dispatch: the manual figure and what the charter (RBAC 135) rule requires.
Dispatches under charter rules at 279 of 465 Brazilian public runways when dry, and at 207 when wet.
Verdict per regime (private, charter dry and wet) across 465 Brazilian public runways, with the margin in meters.
Starter feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.
Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.
Typical factory configuration (curated data). The drawing below is schematic and at approximate scale; the actual layout varies by interior and year.
The Lear 31A combines the compact fuselage of the Lear 35 with the advanced wing of the Lear 55 (including the NASA-developed winglets), a hybrid created to deliver superior performance. Introduced in October 1990, it was the last Lear light jet before the Bombardier era turned the line into midsize.
The 31A was the last genuine light jet produced by Learjet; the end of production in 2003 marked the end of an era. After the acquisition by Bombardier in 1990, the strategy changed: focus on midsize/super-midsize (Lear 45 launched in 1995, Lear 60 in 1993, Lear 75 in 2013), leaving the light segment to Cessna Citation and Embraer Phenom. Bombardier discontinued the entire Learjet brand in 2022, ending 59 years of history. 246 31A units produced; the residual fleet is coveted today by operators seeking high performance in a light jet at an affordable price (USD 1.2M-2.8M).
With an operating ceiling of 51,000 feet (15,545m), the Lear 31A flies above practically all commercial traffic and storms, a rare trait in light jets. Combined with a climb rate of 5,480 fpm, it reaches cruise altitude in under 14 minutes.
The Delta Fins on the lower empennage, small triangular fins, dramatically improve directional stability at high speed, a feature unique in the Lear family. They allow more aggressive maneuvers and better handling in turbulence.
Despite the impressive performance, the maximum range of only 1,661nm (ER version) limits the Lear 31A on intercontinental routes. For São Paulo-Miami (3,870nm), 2-3 stops are needed. The relatively small cabin (3.66m) also does not allow stand-up.
The Lear 31A was one of the first business jets with a steer-by-wire system on the nose wheel, electronic control of the nose gear replacing mechanical cables. A technology that only became standard in business aviation 15 years later.

8 operational aircraft owned by companies in the ANAC registry (RAB). Each opens the profile with owner, operator, status and history.
The Learjet 31A is out of production, so there is no factory price. On the used market the median is around US$ 850,000, varying with year and flight hours; see real listings on this model's Market tab. Reference value as of 06/2026.
The maximum range is 1661 nm (1,661 NM · 3,076 km).
Cruise speed is 448 kt, equivalent to 830 km/h, or Mach 0.81.
The Learjet 31A seats up to 8 passengers, crew not included.
There are 11 active units in the RAB-ANAC (data as of 11/9/2026): operational, mark reservation or suspended, excluding cancelled registrations.
8 distinct operators operate 11 units of the Learjet 31A in the RAB-ANAC: 7 in air taxi (RBAC 135) and 4 in private operation (RBAC 91), concentrated in SP, PR and MT (data as of 11/9/2026). Name, fleet and state of each operator are on this model's Analytics tab and in the operators directory.
Jet Tracker estimate: about US$ 4,436 per flight hour at 200 h/year, of which US$ 2,720 per hour is variable cost (fuel, engine program, maintenance reserves) plus US$ 343,125 per year of fixed cost (crew, hangar, insurance), under Jet Tracker's default assumptions (Southeast Brazil, in-house crew, 200 h/year).
