Learjet 23 Takeoff KFXE

[baileyjean1000]

I have notice that in many of these videos of jets (especially Lear's) that both the pilot and copilot seem to place their hands on the throttle levers. I don't understand that procedure.

What is that function? Does anyone know?

This is a very nicely maintained Learjet 23!

The lear 23 shows stats for close to 7000 fpm climb

Do the early Learjets still hold the record for best climb rate in fpm of a corporate jet? If so, what is the spec.

everything is so mini and micro in that cocpit.

Haha I was just at FXE the other day visiting a mechanic, we had an alternator light come on during our climb out from PMP. FXE is such a beautiful airport

Thank you ZaurisLJ25 for your response. It's a micro compressed flight deck, but that is what I like and might be able to afford in the near future. I'm looking at some available Lear's at the moment, particularly a 1969+. Yes, small - nimble and definitely fast! Take care now.

The Learjet 23, is my choice and favourite. Tricky to operate, but a gorgeous aircraft. Thanks for sharing. lol

certainly is... especially during approach. you can find yourself in a hairy situation you don't monitor your airspeed closely. the LJ23 is comparable to a lotus... small, nimble and fast!
