[edit] History
The first flight of a Learjet 28 took place on 24 August 1977.
The Learjet 28 was based on the LJ25, and received a completely new wing fitted with winglets. The Learjet 29 is constructed identically, however is intended for a higher range. However, due to high engine noise and fuel consumption, the model did not achieve commercial success.
Only five production aircraft of the Learjet 28 model were built before it was replaced then by the further developed Learjet 35. In the year 1998 were from the Learjet 28 still all 5 machines in use.
