[Avionics Today 08-28-2015] Cessna Aircraft has announced the first deliveries of its newest midsize jet, the Cessna Citation Latitude. Among the first operators to take delivery of the Citation Latitude is Aircraft Management Group in Pittsburgh, Pa., which will offer the aircraft as part of its charter operation. Over the next year, the Aircraft Management Group expects the addition of the Latitude to the fleet to expand its customer base by allowing it to offer flights to the west coast and Europe.
“Incorporating our customers’ input into the initial concepts of the Citation Latitude to now having the aircraft in their hands is both rewarding and exciting for everyone at Textron Aviation,” said Scott Ernest, president and CEO of Textron Aviation, Cessna’s parent company. The company also announced a tour across the United States to launch the new aircraft, following tours in Europe and Latin America.
