The Learjet 36 is a twin-engine light jet produced between 1971 and 1982, conceived as the longer-range version of the Learjet 35 family: part of the interior space gave way to additional fuel. The design figures are 2,857 nm of range, a cruise speed of 450 kt, a ceiling of 45,000 ft, and a maximum takeoff weight of 8,301 kg, with four seats in typical configuration and up to six in total. Because it is an out-of-production airframe, the purchase analysis in Brazil weighs the acquisition price less and the condition of the engines, the maintenance history, and the availability of approved maintenance shops for the type more.

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.
