Citation Ultra Ownership Overview

From 1993-1999 Cessna produced nearly 280 Citation Ultras, making waves in the light jet market. Just one year after the jet hit the market, it won the title Best Business Jet from Flying magazine. Buyers won’t have a hard time seeing why when they find a Citation Ultra for sale.

Citation Ultra Cabin Experience

The Citation Ultra is capable of transporting 7 passengers and 2 crew members. The aircraft includes a lavatory at the aft end of the 50ft long fuselage, inside the cabin that’s just over 15ft long. With the luxurious seats Cessna provides, and ample shoulder room, customers will feel maximum comfort while seated.

Total cabin space is 310 cubic feet, 200 of that dedicated to the passenger seating area. The width and height of the cabin is nearly 5ft both ways, and each passenger typically receives 30 cubic feet of space to themselves. Baggage is allotted roughly 70 cubic feet of space broken up into internal and external storage units, with the latter retaining the bulk of the space.

Citation Ultra Mission Profile

Customers who buy a Citation Ultra are focused on quick, short trips, with fewer passengers in tow. This aircraft can takeoff in much shorter distances than its competitors, thus opening up many airports for operation. Customers who prefer to go to the airports off the beaten path will be able to because of that ability.

The design of the engines also add efficiency to the quick flight capability, as they have been manufactured to prevent air leaks. Those also wanting control over their own comfort will find that within the cabin, as they have the ability to set the temperature different to that of the cockpit.
