The Cessna Citation XLS Gen2 is the latest model of the Citation 560XL midsize business jet series.
Textron Aviation has achieved Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) type certification for the Cessna Citation XLS Gen2 business jet and delivered the first customer aircraft to a longtime Citation operator in the Midwest.
Lannie O’Bannion, senior vice president, Sales, and Flight Ops said, “Loyal Citation customers inspire us to continually invest in bringing the latest design and technology to our product line. This fresh approach to our popular 560XL series includes comfort and productivity upgrades requested by our customers, yet retains the model’s combination of performance and efficiencies that offers midsize jet features at a smaller jet operating cost.”
