I love Citations. Great planes to fly and own. Great customer service, and an absolute joy to fly. Here is Cessna's largest single pilot jet to date. I love this plane.


















A new moderately swept wing design borrowed from the successful Citation Sovereign coupled with new Williams FJ44-4A engines produce exceptional performance benefits. The CJ4 is an outstanding combination of power, size and speed that will comfortably put you in the 500-mph club and deliver 1,825 nm of range with NBAA IFR 100 nm reserves.

Right on; I just got CE-525 typed last Jan. I love flying the CJs; single pilot and with a copilot. Hope to fly the CJ4 in April.

 

I would rather fly commercial then fly in something that small. If I can't stand in a plane I don't want to be on it.

 

They aren't for everyone I guess. It's a comfortable plane, it's got a cabin that is quieter than any commercial jet, it's safer, and for those owner/operators out there it's a blast to fly. Oh and no TSA.

I would rather fly around the country in a Cessna 152 than have to deal with TSA, Flight Attendants, Baggage Check, Ticket counter clerks. Smelly wierdos siting next, etc etc. Unfortunately, I have time constraints. So a 152 is not a viable option.

 

Good for you. Let me know when you get to fly the CJ4.

 

CJ4 is the deal.

 

I'd crawl over glass on my lips to fly one of those versus sitting in a commercial portable hole in the ground.

 

+1.

 

Hot damn. Now that the stimulus funds are going to expand our local airport to 4300', you can put one of these babies in there. Who's gonna give me one?
