The Learjet 35 and 36 are larger, turbofan powered developments of the initial Learjet models, the 23, 24 and 25. 64 aircraft were built as the basic 35, superseded by 35A. Early models have five starboard windows and four port, whereas later ones have six starboard plus five port. The 35 first flew on 22nd August 1973 and is powered by TFE731-2 turbofans. It can carry up to eight passengers and is 13 inches longer than the 25. The 35A is an upgraded version of the 35 powered by two TFE731-2-2B engines and has a range of 2,789 miles. It first flew in 1976. Over 500 of both variants were built. Aside from turbofans, the 35 and longer range 36 differ from the earlier Learjet 25 in having a 1'1in (0.33m) fuselage stretch and five windows (instead of four) on the right side of the fuselage. The Learjet 35 has seating for up to eight, but has less fuel than the longer range 36, which can only seat up to six, as both types share the same maximum takeoff weight. The 35 and 36 were certificated in July 1974. Improvements to the two models led to the 35A and 36A from 1976, with higher standard max takeoff weights. Both models remained in production until 1994.
