Listen in to hear from Bart Gray, who is leading a flight to circumnavigate the globe from pole to pole in a Learjet 36A, and Rick Rowe from the Classic Lear Jet Foundation, an organization in the midst of restoring a 1964-built Lear Jet 23, the first Learjet to be delivered to a customer. Gray discusses the flight, which leaves April 30, including the route, preparations and challenges. Rowe, meanwhile, provides an update on the project to return the aircraft into flying condition.
