Citation Mustang Demonstration Tour Before Display At India
Aviation 2010
As the
India Aviation 2010 show gets underway at Begumpet Airport (VOHY)
in Hyderabad, India, Cessna says it is encouraged by signs that the
general aviation industry is growing in that country.
"Over the past several months, we've seen increased interest in
the Citation family of business jets, especially the Citation CJ2+
and Citation XLS+," said Todd Duhnke, Cessna's director of
International Sales. "Our strong relationship with Cessna
authorized sales representative and service facility Taneja
Aerospace & Aviation, located in Bangalore, India, has helped
us gain a strong presence in the area as well as demonstrate the
importance of general and business aviation to this growing
economy," he said.
In partnership with Textron sister company Bell Helicopter,
Cessna is displaying a Citation CJ2+, Citation Mustang, Grand
Caravan and Skyhawk during the show.
Citation Mustang
The Citation Mustang just completed its first customer
demonstration tour throughout India on its way to make its public
debut at India Aviation 2010. "There is a lot of interest in the
Mustang around India and it was well received during its first tour
in the area," said Todd Duhnke, Cessna's director of International
Sales. "India is a growing market for general aviation. We believe
there is potential growth in the area for the entire line of Cessna
products as this region continues to embrace the advantages of
general aviation," he said.
Cessna recently rolled out the 300th Citation Mustang from its
facility in Independence, KS. It will be delivered later this year
to a retail customer in Australia.
