News: Cessna Power On Citation Longitude For The First Time

  1. Citation Longitude Powered On For The First Time
    The Cessna Citation Longitude program is moving full steam ahead and since the last update where the fuselage of the aircraft was joined with the wings, the shell has been successfully powered on for the first time. Of course the wing mating happened in May and now the plane's electrical distribution system has been powered on. These are major steps in the direction of having the first aircraft fly for the first time this Summer.
  2. The super-midsize aircraft is designed specifically for maximum passenger comfort and offers the lowest cabin altitude in its class at 5,950 feet. State-of-the-art cabin technology allows passengers to manage their environment and entertainment from any mobile device, while standard high-speed internet maximizes in-flight productivity. With seating for up to 12 passengers, the Longitude features a stand-up, flat-floor cabin with a standard double-club configuration and a class leading walk-in baggage compartment fully accessible in flight. The clean-sheet design of the Longitude integrates the latest technology throughout the aircraft, bringing customers the lowest ownership costs in this class. It features the next evolution of the Garmin G5000 flight deck and is powered by FADEC-equipped Honeywell HTF7700L turbofan engines with fully integrated autothrottles. The aircraft offers a full fuel payload of 1,500 pounds, a maximum cruise speed of 476-knots and a high-speed range of 3,400 nautical miles.
