HOPES OF FLYING THE FIRST prototype Learjet 45 light business-jet, before the opening of the NBAA convention in Las Vegas on 26 September, faded when the emergency-egress system on the first aircraft had to be removed, retested, and re-installed, delaying the start of high-speed-taxi tests to 22 September at the earliest. The second example of the business jet was rolled out at Wichita on 14 September.
