New Cessna Citation Latitude
Cessna Citation Latitude will be the first super-midsize jet made by Cessna company. Latitude’s range has been increased from 2,000 nm to 2,300 nm with top speed of 442 knots to make it more competitive with archrival.
Cessna completed two rounds of high-speed wind tunnel tests to verify the Latitude's range and cruising speed.
With full fuel, the aircraft should be able to carry nine passengers. The standard interior will have a double side-facing couch for additional, more relaxed passenger space. The left-hand refreshment center and bar is well appointed to meet your beverage and catering needs.
Finally, a midsize jet cabin you won't have to crouch in. At six feet in height, you’ll stand freely and have plenty of space to stretch out as well, with over 21 feet of cabin length and 77-inch width.
The aircraft will have a flat floor, large cabin windows, Cessna's new high reliability Clairity cabin management system and the lowest price tag of any super- midsize jet. A light empty weight should also give it the lowest operating costs in its class.
First flight is scheduled for mid-2014. Certification and entry into service are slated for 2015.
