24B-195
Uni-Air
Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Stephan Barth:
Uni-Air flew this Learjet 24B from 1973 until 1991; the bizjet displayed a slightly revised colour scheme here in 1981. After being sold to several operators in the US, the small aircraft continued its active career until January 2020, when it was last seen active on a flight to Olathe KS; presumably its last flight before being parted out.

I seem doomed to see the most interesting aircraft in the worst weather these days. At msn 174 this Learjet 24 must be one of the oldest still operational and has been spruced up since my shot of 2008:

Stephan Barth’s notes:
OY-EGE Learjet 24-124 from 1966, here in its later colours, snapped around 1971. From 1973 to 1990 it flew with Swedair as SE-DCU, and was later registered in the USA and Mexico. In 2012, it was transferred to Malaysia as N991TD and used as a ground instructional airframe at Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, since 2013.

Overshot the runway on landing.
Still in the same scheme as when it was N207RG including the Marlin logo on the engine. Shannon 17/7/13.
The hushkit on the Lear's engine advertising it as "quiet" - thankfully it still made a reasonable roar !
N16HC Learjet 24A number 126, first registered in 1966 and now used as an instructional airframe.
Seen on the ramp at the Craven Community College in Havelock, quite near to MCAS Cherry Point in North Carolina. You can just see the Hughes 269A N8844F, also a mid-sixties machine.
