The Learjet 45 is the light jet certificated by the FAA on 22 September 1997 (TCDS T00008WI), with two Honeywell TFE731-20R or -20AR engines, a 51,000 ft ceiling and up to 9 seats. In this catalog it is the version before the 45XR, with a maximum takeoff weight of 20,500 lb (9,299 kg) and deliveries starting in 1998. The TCDS does not separate the 45 from the 45XR by serial number, so the cut between the two uses the year of manufacture.
