Orlando, Oct. 20, 2009 – Bombardier Aerospace today announced that Lufthansa Technik has
been selected to develop the new all-composite Learjet 85 aircraft’s state-of-the-art cabin
management system (CMS).
The digital, Ethernet-based CMS and in-flight entertainment system will integrate all passenger
entertainment and cabin environment management functions in a single system.
“We are committed to offer our Learjet 85 aircraft customers an unmatched cabin experience
backed by leading-edge quality components,” said David Coleal, vice-president and general
manager, Learjet.
The Learjet 85 aircraft’s customized version CMS will feature a high-capacity Ethernet network
with a digital amplifier to feed the high-fidelity speaker system and an interface to support the
aircraft cabin environment including as lighting and temperature control. The system’s open
architecture also allows for easy integration of third-party equipment and new applications, such
as High Definition features.
The new Learjet 85 aircraft – redefining the midsize business jet class
Launched on October 30, 2007, the new Learjet 85 aircraft will be the first Bombardier
Aerospace jet to feature an all-composite structure and will be the first all-composite structure
business jet designed for type certification under U.S. Federal Aviation Administration FAR
Part 25.
An extraordinary advancement in next-generation flight, the Learjet 85 aircraft’s all-composite
structure will allow Learjet aircraft designers to maximize cabin comfort while minimizing drag and
improving performance.
Building on legendary Learjet aircraft performance
True to its legendary heritage, the Learjet 85 aircraft is set to deliver the extraordinary
performance, superior technology and exceptional value Learjet aircraft owners expect.

The jet is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW307B engines, each boasting 6,100
pounds of take-off thrust each at sea level 86
