LV-CJY Aircraft Overview
LV-CJY is a Bombardier Learjet 40 registered in Argentina with serial number 45-2096. Light jets define the entry point for turbine-powered business aviation, offering jet speed and reliability with lower acquisition and operating costs than midsize or heavy platforms. The aircraft is associated with Cpc Sa, registered through the ANAC.
Learjet 40 Market Position
The Learjet 40 was designed as a cost-effective entry point into Learjet ownership. It shares the Learjet 45's wing, engines, and systems in a shortened fuselage that seats up to seven passengers. The type offers Learjet-caliber speed and altitude performance at lower acquisition and operating costs.
Performance Profile
The Learjet 40 cruises at 465 knots with a published range of 1,692 nautical miles under standard reserves. These numbers support most regional missions of two to three hours without refueling. Power comes from 2x Honeywell TFE731-20AR. An operating ceiling of 51,000 feet keeps the aircraft above most weather and turbulence.
Mission Profile
Light jets excel at missions under 1,500 nautical miles with smaller passenger groups. The Learjet 40 typically seats 6 passengers in a cabin that prioritizes speed and efficiency over cabin volume. For owner-operators and small flight departments, this category delivers the lowest cost per seat-mile in the jet segment.
Charter & Availability
LV-CJY is registered in Argentina under the ANAC. Contact The Jet Finder to inquire about charter availability for this aircraft or similar Learjet 40 platforms worldwide.
Insider Note
Light jets access thousands of airports that larger aircraft cannot reach. Runway requirements are typically under 4,000 feet, opening up regional and county airports closer to the final destination. This can save an hour or more of ground transportation compared to flying into a major hub.
