Talk:Learjet 28

NASA operation?

I see no evidence on the NASA website that they operate or have ever operated this model of Learjet. They reference retired operation of the model 25, but nothing about this model. Could not find a reference for it so remove the references to NASA.--Klaun (talk) 02:07, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Fair enough, I was just moving the pre-existing value to the proper field. I agree there's no readily-apparent primary link to NASA, though the first one made (of only five) was flown by Neil Armstrong and he set five world records with it, which is probably noteworthy. These two data points are not touched on by the page, but I'm not part of the Aviation WikiProject that watches over these pages, so I don't know what kind of scope is intended and I won't presume to add trivia. If it's appropriate, there might be some good jumping-off points for further research at the following links:

Oh, just spotted this on google books, looks like a decent reference to NASA actually utilizing the 28:

I hope this is useful to someone. My health isn't great, so I just don't have the energy to do additional legwork (fingertipwork) right now. Sorry. :/ Felice Enellen (talk) 02:34, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
