A program to develop and certify a system utilizing advanced technology designed to improve the basic Learjet is discussed. The specific goals of the design included improvement of stall characteristics, reduction in stall speeds, improvement of low speed handling characteristics, reduction of takeoff and landing distances, improving the high altitude hot day takeoff performance and reduction of high speed drag.Successful, as well as unsuccessful ideas are discussed, along with the significant FAA certification details including determination of stall speeds, determination of climb performance, and determination of the takeoff and landing distances.A program to develop and certify a system utilizing advanced technology designed to improve the basic Learjet is discussed.
