Textron Aviation today announced that it has delivered the 100th flagship Cessna Citation Longitude business jet to a longtime Citation customer. Textron Aviation employees celebrated this significant milestone with a special celebration at the company’s headquarters in Wichita last week.

The Cessna Citation Longitude super-midsize business jet is designed, produced and delivered by Textron Aviation Inc. company.

“The Citation Longitude’s performance, efficiency and unrivaled cabin experience have already made it a legendary aircraft in its segment,” said Lannie O’Bannion, senior vice president of Global Sales and Flight Operations. “We’re proud of this significant delivery milestone and of our talented team who continues to design and deliver the best aviation experience for our customers.”

The Citation Longitude is equally designed around the pilot experience, passenger comfort and overall performance, delivering an aircraft that lives up to its designation as the flagship of the Citation family of business jets. No other super-midsize business jet offers more range, greater payload or higher cruise speed at a lower direct operating cost.
