UK-based charter service provider Zenith Aviation is set to take delivery of two new Learjet 75 aircraft from Bombardier Business Aircraft by the end of this month.

To be received at Biggin Hill Airport in London, Zenith Aviation aims to improve its charter offerings with the new aircraft.

At the beginning of this year, the company announced to provide worldwide flights, along with shorter charter services to Europe.

Once received, both aircraft will be managed and chartered by Zenith Aviation.

Zenith Aviation managing director Stuart Mulholland said: “Having seen the first Learjet 45 aircraft arrive over 17 years ago, we are now very much looking forward to the arrival of the iconic Learjet 75 business jet.

"This expansion is a key part of our growth and development strategy moving forward."

“We’ve had a hugely successful year for our business and this expansion is a key part of our growth and development strategy moving forward.

“We are anticipating growing our fleet of managed aircraft and further development of our facilities, and also adding to our Part 145 capability at Biggin Hill Airport over the coming months.”

The delivery of the new aircraft will allow Bombardier to further expand presence of its Learjet aircraft in Europe.

Bombardier Business Aircraft president David Coleal said: “The Learjet 75 aircraft offers class-leading performance and continues to set the benchmark among private jets in the Light category.”

Featuring Bombardier Vision flight deck, the Learjet 75 aircraft is available in a six-seat executive configuration and can climb to operating heights of 51,000ft.

The aircraft can also be configured to carry eight passengers.

In May, Bombardier introduced new interior for Learjet 75 in order to enhance passenger comfort.
