Lear Fan 2100 (multiple)

I have photographed two of the only three Lear Fan 2100 examples ever built — the prototype at the Museum of Flight in Seattle and the #3 aircraft in Dallas (#2 is in Oklahoma)

The Museum of Flight info says that the plane’s U.S. registration, N626BL, represents Bill Lear’s initials and birth date of June 26. The Dallas example also has significant registration as N21LF.
