Venerable Veteran

            N31GJ, a Gates Learjet 36A, on approach to runway 24L at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario.

The ambulance, operated by Global Jetcare, Inc., was arriving from Tampa, Florida.

Given that only 63 Learjet 36s were produced, this is a rare bird.

Serial number 36A-022 began its career as N761A with International Business Machines Corporation in October 1976. Back then, IBM operated three Learjet 36As and one Learjet 35A. Those four jets were replaced by five larger Learjet 55s in 1984. 

The sun reflecting off the snow covered ground illuminated the belly of this beauty.
