CITATION BUSINESS JETS

every mission: accomplished

Missions with a high level of sensitivity and importance depend upon a reliable aircraft platform for success. Citation is by far the largest and most diverse fleet of business jets in the general aviation market, providing a perfect solution for every special mission requirements set.

Cessna’s aircraft have long roots with the military organizations around the world, including the T-37 Tweet as a jet trainer for the USAF. Cessna also provided cargo and training aircraft in WWII.

Surveillance and Patrol

When the mission requires a docile aircraft that handles well at low altitudes and slow speeds, a Citation jet embodies those performance characteristics. Several Citations are single-pilot certified, which means more eyes can be on the ground during patrol flights. Citations offer roomy, customizable cabins that are quiet and smooth; stability and ease of operation; efficiency of costs compared to comparable jets; and unparalleled, worldwide customer support.

When you choose Citation for your surveillance and patrol aircraft, we customize your jet to fit your exact mission requirements. For example, jets can be equipped with a securely mounted EO/IR device, technology specially suited to carry out territory surveillance work such as border patrol, land-use patrol, and general policing.
Every Citation is engineered for the optimum balance of high-altitude and low- altitude flight as well as high-end cruise and low stall speeds. With long range, excellent stability, and good short-field and rough-field performance, we have the jet that best fits your mission.

Air Ambulance

When the mission is one of life or death, every minute counts. Citation jets offer the speed, performance, and extreme reliability to serve as the ideal air ambulance platform. The Citation line of jets offers a wide range of operational flexibility, with most models flying above turbulent weather. The spacious and quiet cabins accommodate customized ambulance interiors with equipment such as medical evacuation systems, advanced life-support systems, mission-specific seating, stretcher systems, and powered loading systems.

Our Citation jets are equipped with ease of use flight decks offering optimal situation awareness and ease of use. Avionics systems can be configured to suit mission requirements and ultimately allow pilots to focus on the quickest, most direct route to the hospital or medical facility.

Dedicated Training

Training career airline pilots requires a teaching aircraft that’s easy to operate yet provides the challenge of a real airliner experience. The speed, performance, cruising altitudes, and advanced avionics suites in Citation jets closely approximate those of commercial airliners. Your Citation can be custom configured to reflect your training goals precisely.

Training aircraft can be configured for dual use to accommodate both executive travel and pilot training. Citations are known for their low operating costs compared to comparable lightweight and midsize jets, as well as for long service lives, high resale values, and the most comprehensive service network in the world for general aviation.

Airways Calibration

Providers of airways-calibration services and flight-inspection services have long trusted Citation jets as the ideal platform for flight inspection. Citation jets possess all of the characteristics outlined in U.S. standards for flight inspection. Included in these are wide ranges of speeds and altitudes, stable and docile handling, ease of operation, and the efficient balance of performance characteristics to costs of ownership.

Citation jets can carry out flight inspection and flight calibration for VOR, VHF, UHF, NDBV, MKR, VOT, VTCRBS, WASI, homing beacons, CAT I/II/III ILS, DVOR, NDB, PAR, U/VDF, en route equipment, AGL and PAPI, MLS, DME, TACAN, PSR, and SSR. Your Citation aircraft will be customized with the exact configuration of precision flight-inspection systems required for your specific mission. Whether you’re an airport operator or a provider of airport services, an airport equipment manufacturer or a systems integrator, a government regulator or have responsibility for airport flight inspection and calibration — or if you have a responsibility for navigational aids and flight safety — we have the jet best suited for your needs.

Aerial Photography

Citation jets equipped with the proper technology provide a wide range of options for aerial photography and aerial videos. With the range of altitudes and speeds at which Citation jets can fly, photographers will be sure to get the views that they need. Citation jets are known for their ease of operation, excellent performance-to- cost efficiencies, and ease of maintenance. With advanced, all-glass avionics, pilots have the necessary situational awareness to plan the safest, best route for each mission.

Special equipment such as professional-quality cameras and a gyrostabilizer can be installed in your Citation to fit your mission requirements. Many of our aerial- photographer customers also have specific equipment for special projects, such as infrared, aerial video, mosaics, ortho-rectified mapping, large-format murals, and digital design work. Whatever your requirements, we will work with you to customize the perfect solution for your special mission.
