"Today, the diverse and innovative offerings of the Citation line-up, combined with each jet's performance and comfort features, continue to provide customers with the optimal aircraft and technical support for their travel and operating needs."
As per GAMA reports Textron Aviation delivered about 206 Citation business jets which is nearly 60 more than the nearest competitor. With more than 7,700 jets delivered to customers and operators worldwide, the jet line-up is recognized as the most popular series of business aircraft ever produced.
This popular midsize jet entered the market in 2015 and quickly established itself as the Citation with the highest average daily utilization. For operators, the Latitude delivers an unmatched combination of best-in-class short-field performance with extended maintenance intervals and lower operating costs. Passengers benefit from the most refined cabin in the midsize class, offering a six-foot stand-up flat-floor cabin, added legroom and class-leading baggage weight capacity.
