The Learjet 25 Classic uses two CJ610 engines, retractable tricycle gear and hydraulic flaps and spoilers. The Xtreme Prototypes manual describes manually powered elevator, aileron and rudder controls, with electric secondary trim.

HOW IT CAME TO BE

History & design

A longer-cabin member of the early Learjet family

The Model 25 extended the early Learjet concept with a longer cabin and greater seating and loading flexibility. The later 25D added fuel capacity for longer flights. Xtreme Prototypes models that Gates-era development, and traces its own 20-series add-ons back to 2009. Its GLJ25 therefore represents the turbojet generation of Learjets, with its operating character kept separate from the later turbofan-powered 30 series.

UNDER THE SKIN

Systems & details

Controls and equipment

The simulated STICK N/P function uses the autopilot for stall nose-down and overspeed nose-up commands; recovery leaves attitude hold engaged. The four-way yoke trim switch is disabled, with pitch and roll trim available through separate bindings.

Reading the classic engine instruments

Xtreme Prototypes’ GLJ Model 25 manual describes separate engine rpm, exhaust-gas-temperature and engine-pressure-ratio indications. The EPR gauges include adjustable target markers, while the electrical-system description identifies the AC supplies needed by particular instruments. The result is a cockpit in which power setting and instrument availability require attention to more than one display. These details describe the simulated classic Learjet panel and help explain why its workflow differs from a modern consolidated engine display.
