About the Cessna Excel/XLS
The Cessna Citation XLS+ (Model 560XL) is one of the best-selling midsize business jets in the world, prized for its unique blend of a stand-up cabin (1.73m height) and light-jet operating costs. As an evolution of the Excel and XLS, the XLS+ features upgraded PW545C FADEC-controlled engines and a modern Collins Pro Line 21 glass cockpit. It is renowned for its excellent short-field performance, a high cruise speed of 441 knots, and a service ceiling of 45,000 feet, making it exceptionally versatile for both short hops and transcontinental-capable flights.
