The citation x. It’s how to announce you’ve arrived without saying a thing.

Citation X
a genuine aviaTion original.
Is it possible for a midsize business jet to project a sense of independence and entrepreneurial spirit?
We think so. Consider the thoroughly original Citation X. On the ground, it cuts a striking figure of
barely restrained brawn. But in the air, its disposition proves easy-going, almost docile, even as it
powers effortlessly to a rarefied altitude more than nine miles above the earth and settles into a
sustained cruise just south of the sound barrier. The X’s speed, of course, is what it’s known for, but
it isn’t just for show. Nor does it come at the expense of other performance measures. Instead, the
whole is a perfectly balanced package. Powerful, but restrained. Impressive, but never excessive.
Envied, but unable to be copied. As only a Citation X can be.
The Citation X is Cessna’s flagship business jet and one of
business aviation’s most successful and respected aircraft.

does let you flirt with the legal limits. Simply put, no other business jet can match the combination of
and pressurized storage for luggage and
range, speed, and economy offered by the Citation X. That the Citation X is built for speed is evident
at a glance. The aggressively swept, supercritical wing, low-drag airframe, and muscular engines
result in an award-winning design that significantly reduces travel time (up to 45 minutes on a typical
2,000 nm mission). And when you put time that would otherwise be wasted in a lesser jet to good use,
you gain something equally as valuable: an edge on the competition.

The entire Citation family has a reputation
for excellent short-field performance,
and the X is no exception. While its wing
is optimized for high-speed cruise, leading
edge slats and Fowler flaps ensure low
approach speeds and enhanced takeoff
and landing performance.
An optional installation of elliptical winglets offers
further performance advantages on the Citation X.

PILOTS DESERVE UPGRADES, TOO.
The Citation X has always been more racehorse than showhorse. And the X’s intuitive flight deck
proves that the world’s fastest business jet is a true pilot’s airplane. The ergonomic seats were
designed for comfort on transcontinental missions. Essential flight controls and flight information
are all within easy reach. Systems are at once technologically advanced and simple to operate,
built around a proven, integrated avionics suite designed to improve situational awareness and
reduce pilot workload in flight.
Primus Elite Display Features
»Dual LCD Primary Flight Displays, dual Multi-Function
Displays, and a central EICAS Display provide at-a-glance

Jeppesen approach charts with aircraft position and XM

geopolitical boundaries, airspace, and airways appear on
the MFDs. On-screen pull-down menus and new cursor
control panels provide pilot access and control.
» A new data loader allows you to upload Jeppesen

advanced moving map capability, and ADS-B applications.

capable of operating from shorter runways, the number of airports accessible to the X is almost as
impressive as the aircraft itself.

Citation X
Don’T fence Me in.
Stepping into a Citation X cabin can be a breathtaking experience for even the most seasoned business jet
traveler. And with good reason. When configured for eight passengers with double-club seating, the cabin can
easily be mistaken for that of a larger aircraft. That sense of spaciousness is due in part to the Citation X’s
dropped-wing design and extensive wing fairing, which allows components to be installed outside the pressure
vessel. This translates into a continuous dropped aisle as well as more space in the cabin that Cessna’s interior
design team can devote to passenger comfort and amenities.
A wide variety of interior configurations may be specified,
including seating options for up to ten passengers, or a fully
outfitted office in the sky. The Citation X’s large, impressive
galley provides necessary refreshment en route.

» A large forward closet is capable of handling
multiple bags and coats.
» The X’s Environmental Control System (ECS)
provides a comfortable internal cabin pressure
of 8,000 feet even at the maximum altitude of
51,000 feet.
The Citation X’s aft lavatory with solid door
and large closet provides both privacy and ample

Making Our Citation Your Citation.
We understand every Citation owner is unique, and your aircraft should be too. Cessna will
be your consultant as you participate as much or as little as you like in customizing your
aircraft’s interior and exterior details. The process begins with the selection of available
avionics and entertainment options and is followed by the specification and configuration.
We have three state-of-the-art specification rooms that incorporate fully integrated design
studios. Our dedicated in-house designers, who have more than 35 years combined aircraft
design experience, will assist you in putting your personal touch on your new Citation X. You
will also have the opportunity to customize your exterior paint scheme by working directly
with one of our dedicated exterior designers. Once your new Citation X is ready, we’ll schedule
a visit to our design headquarters for you or someone you designate, where we’ll perform
a detailed inspection of the final product. During your stay, we’ll thoroughly familiarize you
with the aircraft both on the ground and in the air before you take delivery.

To ciTaTion ownerS.
No other midsize jet can match the Citation X for overall performance and sheer exhilaration. An
instant classic when it was introduced, the X has since become one of business aviation’s all-time
favorite aircraft designs, flying the equivalent of four trips to the Sun and accounting for more than
a million takeoffs and landings. But owning one is only part of the story. Supporting that aircraft is
a company with unsurpassed resources, expertise, longevity, and reach committed to the idea that
your ownership experience should be the best it can be, now and for the lifetime of your new Citation.

tools, can be found at Cessna.com. To discuss your specific aircraft needs and interests,
