I thought it looked like a Spur paint job, and yup - it's a Spur.

Someday I'll own one. Someday.

Adam, I didn't even know it was a 690, without looking up the N# :shrug:
One thing I noticed, was how small the Empennage was, the Elevator seamed Smallish :scratch: :D
Really liked the size of the Exhaust :D

Yeah, most likely a -10 by the look of the exhaust.

The empennage is actually bigger than it looks, it just because the wingspan is so big it looks small. My bird has the short wing at 44ft, think the 690's are 49ft and the Jetrprop stretches all the way to 53ft. Which can make them challenging to fit in many hangars.

I'd love a single pilot Learjet :D Have a few hours in them. Just wish I didn't have to charter the copilot.
