Introduction: Citation Ultra C650

Cessna Citation Ultra C560 is a twin-engined corporate jet aircraft produced by the American manufacturer Cessna Aircraft Company. The 560 is a reliable private jet that can take you anywhere a mid-sized jet can go at the cost of a light jet flight. Its comfort, performance, and reliability match Cessna’s high standards in private jet design.

History

In 1993, Cessna decided to update the Citation V design and announced the Whitney JT15D-5D engines with 3045 lbs of thrust and the standard avionics suite, which was updated to the Honeywell Primus 1000 EFIS glass cockpit. The Primus 1000 replaced the standard “round dial” flight instruments with three CRT computer screens, one for each pilot and one center multifunction display. In 1994, the Ultra was named Flying Magazine’s “Best Business Jet”. The Ultra was produced from 1994–1999. Both the Citation V and Ultra hold 5816 pounds of fuel.
