"This has been a remarkable year for Cessna. The CJ3 marks the
third Citation to receive the FAA's signature of approval in 2004.
From the development of the concept through FAA test flights, the
Citation CJ3 has repeatedly surpassed or equaled performance
specifications we originally announced. The results of the CJ3
flight tests have impressed everyone at Cessna, and we know this
airplane will amaze customers. Everyone at Cessna who helped turn
this airplane into reality should be enormously proud of this great
aircraft."
