Today, Jetcity owns and operates two Learjets, the 35A and 36A, both of which meet the highest standards of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority of Australia.

Learjet Capabilities
With excellent load carrying capabilities, a speed of over 835 km/h, a range of 4100 km (2200 nautical miles) and a ceiling altitude of 45,000 feet, your patient is afforded safety and comfort well above the weather, arriving at your destination in minimal time. The Learjet is also equipped with a large three foot wide door providing ease of access for the patient, which is why the Learjet is the first choice of preferred Aero-Medical Jet Ambulance for many companies worldwide.

Lifeport Patient Stretcher System
The Learjet utilizes the Lifeport patient stretcher system. This self contained system is equipped with regulators, flow meters, pumps to provide a vacuum source and a 3300 litre oxygen bottle with additional “D” size bottles available. All electrical requirements are met through 12Volt DC, 24Volt DC, and 240Volt AC outlets to accommodate defibrillators, syringe pumps and other devices. The electrical outlets come complete with many combinations of adaptors and electrical leads to meet specific equipment design and country differences.

Normally our Learjets are equipped with one stretcher system with five seats available for the medical team and/or family members. If required our Learjet 35A can accommodate two stretchers with two seats being available for a medical team. The stretcher itself is able to be adjusted from a lying down position to an up right sitting position. This interior has been specially designed and is approved to meet stringent Civil Aviation Safety Authority regulations.

Intravenous
Intravenous fluids are managed by way of IV fluid poles or a track and roller assembly mounted on the ceiling above the stretcher. With this design you may hang intravenous drips from the rollers then move them to any position above the patient. The Learjet’s fully pressurized cabin can maintain sea level pressure up to an altitude of 25,000 feet, vital in transporting victims of head injury or nitrogen narcosis (the bends).

State-of-the-art Medical Equipment
Most importantly the Learjet can accommodate life support and monitoring equipment, paediatric emergency equipment, neonatal humidicribs, traction and splint equipment, ECMO equipment, or any other state-off-the-art medical equipment that may be specific to the flight.
