Description

Jet Dreams Take Flight

Imagine the sleek Learjet streaking across the sky in this high-flying adventure! Picture yourself zooming through the clouds as young readers discover the trailblazing history of the world's fastest business jet.

This book's about talented people who had big dreams and just knew they could make them real.

Meet inventor Bill Lear and engineer Dr. Hans Studer. These visionary founders combined creativity and expertise to make the impossible possible. Their Learjet could rocket across the country in a mere 4 hours!

Follow their journey from sketching jet wing designs to witnessing their innovative dream take flight. But it wasn't easy. Yet they never even thought about giving up! Nope, they kept on working, figuring things out step-by-step.

Finally, their hard work paid off big time! They made the Learjet, the quickest business jet in the sky. It's so speedy and smooth, it changed the way people think about flying!

Readers will take off on an exciting ride through decades of Learjet's boundary-pushing innovations. Learning about the daring pilots who pushed the limits will ignite their own willingness to soar.

The Age of Learjet will inspire the next generation of innovators to dream big, believe in themselves, and let their bold ideas take wing!"

Aviation experts Dr. Peter Hamel, former Director of the Institute of Flight Systems, and Gary Park, aerospace engineer for over 50 years, stand alone as the definitive Learjet historians. Their insider engineering experience paired with exhaustive research resulted in the comprehensive 456-page book "The Learjet History: Beginnings, Innovations, and Utilization."

Dr. Hamel brings decades of leadership in aeronautics programs and research. Mr. Park provides an insider perspective from directly working on Learjet certification.

For this adaptation, nobody provides more authority and passion for bringing Learjet's untold stories to young readers.

So, why should you read this book? Because it shows that when you've got a dream and you stick with it, amazing things can happen!
