Index ≈ ×1.19 to ×1.42 on the aircraft value, already with ferry, ANAC nationalization and ICMS.
Market estimate: value + ferry + ANAC nationalization + ICMS, no legal review. Federal taxes (II/IPI/PIS/COFINS) ~0% for aircraft (NCM 88.02); the weight is the state ICMS, higher for private use.
Operate = direct cost/hour (fuel + maintenance + engine); excludes fixed costs (hangar, crew, insurance). World light-jet/31A category rate $2,900-$3,800/hr (Paramount Business Jets, Mercury Jets, Stratos light-jet band). BR rate estimated from Flapper SP-Rio route quote ~R$40,000 for the leg; per-hour BR not published directly, range inferred from route economics and typical BR light-jet premium over US. BR figure is route-derived, treat as approximate.

Learjet 31A, versão modernizada com winglets do Lear 31. Substituto do Lear 25.
How much runway the Learjet 31A needs to dispatch: the manual figure and what the charter (RBAC 135) rule requires.
Dispatches under charter rules at 279 of 465 Brazilian public runways when dry, and at 207 when wet.
Verdict per regime (private, charter dry and wet) across 465 Brazilian public runways, with the margin in meters.
Pro feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.
Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.
Typical factory configuration (curated data). The drawing below is schematic and at approximate scale; the actual layout varies by interior and year.
O Lear 31A combina a fuselagem compacta do Lear 35 com a asa avançada do Lear 55 (incluindo os winglets desenvolvidos pela NASA), um híbrido criado para entregar performance superior. Introduzido em outubro de 1990, foi o último light jet Lear antes da era Bombardier transformar a linha em midsize.
O 31A foi o último light jet legítimo produzido pela Learjet, encerramento em 2003 marcou o fim de uma era. Após a aquisição pela Bombardier em 1990, a estratégia mudou: foco em midsize/super-midsize (Lear 45 lançado em 1995, Lear 60 em 1993, Lear 75 em 2013) deixando o segmento light para Cessna Citation e Embraer Phenom. Bombardier descontinuou toda a marca Learjet em 2022, encerrando 59 anos de história. 246 unidades 31A produzidas, a frota residual hoje é cobiçada por operadores que buscam alta performance em light jet a preço acessível (USD 1.2M-2.8M).
Estimativa preliminar, Learjet 31 family.
Learjet 31A (1991-2003), light jet com performance hot-and-high (cabine 7 pax). Frota BR estimada 3-6 aeronaves operacionais hoje. Mercado pre-owned: US$ 600k-1.5M.
Full analysis: listing, mark reservations, charts and change log in the ANAC Monitor.
Com teto operacional de 51.000 pés (15.545m), o Lear 31A voa acima de praticamente todo o tráfego comercial e de tempestades, característica rara em light jets. Combinado com taxa de subida de 5.480 fpm, alcança altitude de cruzeiro em menos de 14 minutos.
Os Delta Fins na empenagem inferior, pequenas aletas triangulares, melhoram drasticamente a estabilidade direcional em alta velocidade, característica única na família Lear. Permitem manobras mais agressivas e melhor handling em turbulência.
Apesar da performance impressionante, o range máximo de apenas 1.661nm (versão ER) limita o Lear 31A em rotas intercontinentais. Para São Paulo-Miami (3.870nm), são necessárias 2-3 escalas. Cabine relativamente pequena (3,66m) também não permite stand-up.
O Lear 31A foi um dos primeiros jatos executivos com sistema steer-by-wire na roda do nariz, controle eletrônico do trem dianteiro substituindo cabos mecânicos. Tecnologia que só se tornou padrão na aviação executiva 15 anos depois.

FALHA DE SISTEMA / COMPONENTE
The Learjet 31A is out of production, so there is no factory price. On the used market the median is around US$ 850.000, varying with year and flight hours; see real listings on this model's Market tab.
The maximum range is 1661 nm (1.661 NM · 3.076 km).
Cruise speed is 448 kt, equivalent to 830 km/h, or Mach 0.81.
The Learjet 31A seats up to 8 passengers, crew not included.
There are 28 units registered in the RAB-ANAC (data as of 9/22/2026).
22 distinct operators operate 28 units of the Learjet 31A in the RAB-ANAC: 15 in air taxi (RBAC 135) and 13 in private operation (RBAC 91), concentrated in SP, GO and PR (data as of 9/22/2026). Name, fleet and base of each operator are on this model's Analytics tab and in the operators directory.
Jet Tracker estimate: about US$ 3,428 per flight hour at 400 h/year, of which US$ 2,570 per hour is variable cost (fuel, engine program, maintenance reserves) plus US$ 343,125 per year of fixed cost (crew, hangar, insurance), under Jet Tracker's default assumptions (Southeast Brazil, in-house crew, 400 h/year).
