EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the United States Air Force (USAF) Gates Learjet C-21A 84-0108, with the manufacturing serial number 35A-554, in service circa 1998. The image is part of The Tony Lovelock Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. The C-21A is a versatile military transport aircraft, based on the Learjet 35A executive jet. It was primarily used for the transportation of high-ranking military personnel, including the Joint Chiefs of Staff and other VIPs. The USAF acquired a total of 32 C-21As between 1985 and 1987, and they served the Air Force until their retirement in 2014. The sleek and modern design of the C-21A is evident in this photograph, with its distinctive Learjet tail fin and winglets. The aircraft's advanced avionics and high-performance engines enabled it to fly at cruising speeds of over 500 miles per hour and reach altitudes of up to 51,000 feet. The C-21A was a crucial asset to the USAF, providing rapid and efficient transportation for its most senior leaders. This photograph captures the essence of the aircraft's role in military aviation, offering a glimpse into the world of aeronautical transportation during the late 1990s.
