About the Cessna Citation Latitude

Type certificated 2015

Overview

The Cessna Citation Latitude (Model 680A) is a midsize business jet that pairs the wing planform and PW306-family engines of the straight-wing Citation Sovereign with a clean-sheet, wide-body fuselage: a completely flat floor and a stand-up cabin. Two FADEC-controlled Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306D1 turbofans power it, and the flight deck is built around Garmin G5000 touchscreen avionics with integrated autothrottles. The Latitude cruises at 446 KTAS (Mach 0.80), reaches 45,000 ft, and covers about 2,700 nm with four passengers, enough for non-stop coast-to-coast in most conditions.

For the owner stepping up from a light jet, the Latitude offers much of the cabin presence of a large-cabin aircraft with the operating economics and short-field flexibility of a midsize, at a roughly $3,958 hourly direct operating cost. It is a two-pilot type in practice, and the headline range is a light-load figure: with full fuel, useful load leaves room for about four to five passengers with light bags. Choose the Citation Latitude when a flat-floor stand-up cabin and midsize economics matter more than top speed, you fly transcontinental legs that fit roughly 2,700 nm, and you crew it with two pilots.

Key Features for GA Buyers

  • Flat-floor cabin: The first Citation with a completely flat floor and a stand-up cabin, a marked step up in space over the trenched-aisle layout of earlier Citations.
  • Comfortable pressurisation: A low cabin altitude at the 45,000 ft ceiling reduces fatigue on long transcontinental legs.
  • Garmin G5000 avionics: Touchscreen-controlled flight deck with integrated autothrottles, designed to lower pilot workload in two-crew and single-pilot type-rated operations.
  • Long maintenance intervals: Extended scheduled-inspection intervals and a broad Textron service network help keep midsize operating cost in check.

Trade-offs

  • Speed: Its 446 KTAS (Mach 0.80) maximum cruise trails faster super-midsize rivals such as the Embraer Praetor 500 and the Gulfstream G280.
  • Range with payload: Coast-to-coast capable at about 2,700 nm, but west-bound transcontinental legs into strong winter headwinds may need a fuel stop depending on load.
  • Payload with full fuel: A full fuel load leaves roughly 1,000 lb of payload, about four to five passengers with light bags. Range and cabin load trade against each other on each mission.
