Cessna business jet started deliveries of light aircraft
Cessna Aircraft Company, the leading designer of light and midsize
business jets, utility turboprops and single engine aircraft, this week
started deliveries of both the all-new Citation M2 light jet and the
Citation Sovereign+, an upgrade to a design light aircraft in service
since 2004. The Sovereign+ aircraft adds Garmin G5000 avionics,
auto-throttles, winglets, and new Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306D
engines.
The Citation M2 light jet, in the works since 2011, offers a six-passenger cabin interior and aims to provide a step up for Mustang owners and turboprop pilots.
“The Citation M2 is a versatile aircraft that fits many markets and missions, attracting owner-operators looking for an advanced, innovative aircraft of this size, capability, and value,” said Brad Thress, Cessna senior vice president of business jets. The single-pilot-certified jet can cruise up to 400 knots and fly up to 1,300 nm nonstop.
The Sovereign+ aircraft can fly up to 3,000 nm nonstop at speeds up to 458 knots.
Cessna has sold 349 Sovereigns around the world, and announced plans for the new Sovereign+ at NBAA. The Cessna Aircraft Company is an American general aviation aircraft manufacturing corporation headquartered in Wichita, Kansas. Best known for small, piston-powered aircraft, Cessna also produces business jets
