New Citation CJ4 On Display Wednesday Only
Cessna has brought its entire line of current production
Citation business jets at the 62nd NBAA Meeting and Convention.
Cessna Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Jack J.
Pelton says the company remains committed to offering a broad and
comprehensive product line, a favorable value proposition, a
world-class service and support network and has been reorganized to
be even more responsive to customers. "The Cessna you see at NBAA
is a redefined and reshaped company, positioned to emerge from this
downturn as an even stronger leader in the global business jet
market," Pelton said.
"We finally see indicators that the economic free-fall has ended
and our customers' economic health may have stabilized. Looking
forward, business jet purchases and usage are expected to recover
as our customers' confidence in the economy and their own economic
outlook improve," he added. "Our industry will recover over time,
but we anticipate a gradual climb back up rather than a quick
rebound to the high production numbers some had predicted prior to
the downturn."
On static display at Orlando Executive Airport will be the
Citation X, Citation Sovereign, Citation XLS+, Citation Encore+,
Citation CJ3, Citation CJ2+, Citation CJ1+ and a Citation Mustang.
On Wednesday, Oct. 21 only, a Citation CJ4 will be on hand. An
upward extension of the CJ family, the CJ4 is currently in the
flight test phase of development.
Cessna Citation X
The exhibit also will include two ValuePlus previously owned
Citations: a Citation Excel and Citation V. A Grand Caravan and
Cessna Corvalis TT will be on hand to represent Cessna's line of
turboprop and single-engine piston models.
