Cessna Citation Mustang – Ideal Entry Level Business Jet

Cessna Citation Mustang – top choice if you are targeting to charter a very light jet (VLJ).

Cessna Citation Mustang highlights
· The interior is comfortable and space-effective for its size
· First to be certified to fly into known icing conditions
· Remarkable 57 cubic feet (or 620 pounds) of baggage volume


First flown in 2005, the Cessna Citation Mustang is currently certified in 57 countries including the United States. Following take off, the Mustang business jet can climb swiftly to 41,000 feet and continue to fly for the duration of a 1,150 nautical mile-long trip, carrying a single pilot and three passengers.

The interior is comfortable and space-effective for its size. The seats are ergonomically designed with comfort and luxury in mind. The fully-reclinable leather seats come with work tables, armrests, storage consoles and power outlets.

Perhaps the most notable asset of the Mustang is its baggage storage space. The total external baggage volume measures a remarkable 57 cubic feet, or 620 pounds. The storage walls are recessed to allow ski transport as well.

The Mustang is an ideal entry-level business jet for small companies and individuals looking for an economical private jet for short-range missions, usually a little over one hour. Ideal for nonstop flights with maximum passengers from Los Angeles to Aspen; Washington, D.C. to Miami or Santa Fe to Oklahoma City; or something in between.

This private jet was the first in its class to be certified for flight and also the first to be certified to fly into known icing conditions.

Learjet 60 - Quietest Midsize Aircraft

Learjet 60 – top choice if you are targeting to charter a midsize private aircraft.

Learjet 60 outperforms its peers in the following ways:
· Quietest
· Strongest climb gradient – from sea level to 41,000 feet in 19 minutes
· Superior internal and external baggage volume capacity


The Bombardier Learjet 60 is the first in a new line of midsize business jets developed by Learjet of Wichita, Kansas. An extension of the Learjet 45 and 55, it offers on time performance and a new redesigned cabin for comfort and control. With an extended range of 2,510 nautical miles, Learjet 60 is also one of the quietest midsize aircraft, offering unrestricted access in noise sensitive airports with the strongest climb gradient in its class, from sea level to 41,000 feet in 19 minutes with maximum takeoff weight.

Inside the 17-foot-long stand-up cabin, business executives forget that they’re on a jet and take advantage of the special amenities in the jet that Bombardier refers to as “the office in the sky.”

The Lear 60 is still in production today and is now called the Lear 60 XR. Configuration of this midsized jet will typically provide seating for six passengers and two crew members. Learjet 60 is ideal for executives who travel from New York to Dallas on a private charter jet or anywhere in between.

The Bombardier Learjet 60 has more than 30 percent market share since its introduction in 1993. Its proven systems, superior airliner-style and modern powerplants, combined with its stand-up cabin, spacious aft lavatory and superior internal and external baggage volume capacity, make it a top performer in its class.
