On October 19th, Bombardier Aerospace announced the debut of two
new cabin configurations available on its Learjet 60 XR aircraft.
The interior upgrades, the Signature Series Red and the Signature
Series Black, were available for viewing at the Orlando Executive
Airport throughout the 2009 NBAA Convention.
In an effort to bring the large cabin concept to a midsize
jet, Learjet developed the interiors with increased functionality
and flexible design as priority.
Both Signature Series offer a six-passenger configuration with a
15-inch aisle to provide additional space for comfort and
maneuverability throughout the cabin. Cabin seats feature removable
armrest caps and panels, as well as berthing capabilities.
The redesigned cabin will also include a larger galley offering
multiple units for increased storage capacity. In addition, the
upgraded cabin will debut a previously unavailable entertainment
option, swift broadband capability that supports simultaneous WI-FI
connectivity for personal electronic devices, laptops, and Satcom
cabin phone.
Customers wanting an enhanced entertainment center can opt for
the Signature Series Black featuring a 24 in flat screen monitor
and powered portable electronic device interface compatible with
audio and video outputs.
ANN's Tom Patton took the opportunity to speak with Simon
Lafreniere, Manager of Learjet's Product Planning, about what the
upgrades mean for today's business traveler and the customer
feedback that Bombardier has received since its the Signature
Series debut.
