II+111 What happens when you take the very best features of the world's top-selling business jet, the Citation II, and add the qualities of the leading midsize jet, the Citation III? It's simple arithmetic. You get V. The Citation V. A totally new class of business jet that is already enjoying phenomenal acceptance. Citation V orders to date are already more than three times greater than total 1988 sales of the nearest competitive jet. That popularity isn't surprising. Because we designed the Citation V after asking hundreds of light business jet owners to describe the ideal business jet. They asked us to build a jet that's highly reliable. Fuel efficient. Capable of operating safely from short runways. And with a low cost of ownership. Like the Citation II. But build it with an even more spacious cabin. Give it more cruise speed. Greater range. And the ability to fly quickly to higher altitudes. More like the Citation III. That, they said, would be the ideal jet. And that's exactly what the Citation V provides. The cabin seating area is nearly 15 feet long - 6 feet longer than our closest competition - with room for eight passengers to stretch out in a double-club seating arrangement. A huge advantage in working efficiency and traveling comfort. There's far more external baggage space, too. And the private aft lavatory is an amenity simply not found on any comparably priced jet. Its performance is just as impressive. At nearly 500 mph, it's almost 50 mph faster than the world's best-selling Citation II. It's also capable of 20% greater range. And at its higher cruise altitude of 45,000 feet, you're more than a mile above most weather - and most other jets. Yet for all its size and power, it retains the Citation II's legendary short field performance. And it inherits Citation's unmatched record for safety and'reliability. Most importantly, the Citation V offers it all at an extremely attractive delivered price - which includes thrust reversers, long-range navigation system and the most extensive package of avionics and interior features we've ever offered, as standard equipment.
