CESSNA CITATION BRAVO
介紹
- Passengers 7
The Cessna Citation Bravo is an upgrade of the Citation II with improved avionics, a longer range, faster cruise speeds, and much better fuel efficiency.
About this aircraft
- The Cessna Citation Bravo entered service in 1997.
- The versatile aircraft has exceptional short-field capabilities and seats seven passengers (eight if the lavatory is used as a seat).
- It can fly for up to four hours, completing non-stop journeys from London to Athens and or New York to Miami.
- The baggage compartment has enough space for five suitcases and is long enough for golf clubs and skis.
- Production ceased in 2006 following over 330 deliveries. Some Bravos in operation today have been refurbished to optimise their level of comfort.
Renowned for its reliability and comfortable interior, the Citation Bravo remains one of the most popular private jets to charter for short-haul flights.
Interior design
The Bravo’s spacious, air-conditioned cabin measures 1.43m in height, 1.48m in width and 4.75m in length without the cockpit. It’s usually configured in a seven-seat layout, with four passengers in club seats with fold-down executive tables in the centre, two additional club seats at the rear and one at the front. Sliding doors conceal a private lavatory with belted seating for an eighth passenger. There’s also space for a fully-stocked refreshment centre.

- There’s room for baggage in the nose, cabin and tailcone.
- Most Bravos are found in the United States, but they’re also readily available to charter in Europe.
Technological features
The Citation Bravo is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW530A engines, each offering 2,887 lbs of thrust. It also features a Honeywell Primus 1000 integrated avionics system, Honeywell GNSX flight management system and electronic flight information system, dual screen primary flight displays and a multi-function display.
History
With more than 600 aircraft produced by 1994, the Citation II was in need of an overhaul. Cessna replaced it with the Citation Bravo, which received FAA certification in the summer of 1996 and quickly made a name for itself in the light jet market.
Cessna’s engineers added a more efficient engine and redesigned the aircraft’s fuselage to reduce cabin noise for a more relaxed inflight experience, while a trailing link landing gear system allowed for smoother landings. After a successful run, production of the Citation Bravo ceased in 2006.
Manufacturer
Cessna was founded in 1927 by Clyde Cessna and Victor Roos. It was originally called the Cessna-Roos Aircraft Company, but Roos’ name was dropped after he resigned just one month into the partnership and sold back his interest to Cessna.
Headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, the company specialised in producing small piston-powered planes and business jets. After becoming one of the world’s biggest general aviation producers, it was bought by General Dynamics in 1985 and by Textron in 1992. In March 2014, Cessna stopped operating as a subsidiary company and joined Beechcraft and Hawker as one of the three distinct brands produced by Textron Aviation.
Cost
Acquiring a Cessna Citation Bravo typically costs $1.7 million to $2.3 million (USD), depending on production year.
