Description
Film footage of Lear Jet facilities and a Learjet 23 prototype (tail number N801L), produced by Gordon Industrial Films, circa 1960s. The footage opens with shots of a Lear Jet building, likely in Wichita, Kansas. The film then transitions to the Learjet 23 prototype at an airfield. Scenes depict the aircraft parked, taxiing down a runway, taking off, in flight, landing, and being inspected by a crowd. One scene, filmed from inside the Learjet 23, shows tufts along the wing. At 00:05:17, the aircraft performs a roll. The footage concludes with another shot of the Let Jet building. Another reel in the collection contains similar footage of this flight.
Several other aircraft are also visible during the airfield scenes, including a Cessna 175C Skylark (registration number N8309T).
The footage is in color and silent.
