Salt Lake City clients book light jets often, because the Mountain West runs they fly most sit squarely inside the range.
Bombardier (Learjet) built the Learjet 35 between 1974 and 1994. It is flown by a crew of 2. The type carries 6 to 8 passengers, cruises at 464 knots, tops out at 45,000 feet, covers 2,125 nautical miles and holds 40 cubic feet of baggage.

Why the Learjet 35 Fits Salt Lake City
Most Salt Lake City light jet trips leave from Salt Lake City International Airport (KSLC/SLC), which has a tower that operates around the clock, customs landing rights for international arrivals and the longest runways in the state. For a trip ending in Park City or Deer Valley, Heber Valley Airport (KHCR/HCR) is worth asking about.
A published range of 2,125 nautical miles brings Dallas, Cabo San Lucas, Chicago and Washington, DC within reach of Salt Lake City, before the operator applies reserves and routing for the day.
The runway required on the day is a performance calculation the operator makes for that aircraft, at that weight, in the conditions on your date, so we confirm it with them for your specific trip.

Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
