ABOUT THE AIRCRAFT | CESSNA CITATION X
Delivering unmatched performance and style, the Cessna 750 Citation X was the fastest business jet in the world until the introduction of its slightly faster successor, the Cessna Citation X+, and it remains a favorite among many in the private jet charter industry.
Powered by two RollsRoyce engines with performance up to Mach .90, and offering a flight range of almost 3,200 miles at normal cruising speeds of 525 knots (605 mph), the Cessna 750 Citation X is the fastest way for private flyers to reach domestic and intercontinental destinations, traveling approximately one mile every six seconds.
In addition to its incredible speed and range, this super midsize jet offers a luxurious, wellappointed cabin with executive seating for up to 8 passengers. Its plush interior is highlighted by polished wooden finishes and exceptional headroom with enough space to allow passengers to stand up and move around the cabin comfortably midflight.
