The Cessna Citation X is a medium size business jet aircraft manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company in Wichita, Kansas. After the Customer Advisory Council proposed that Cessna Aircraft Company design a new jet model with increased speed and a pressurized baggage compartment, the Citation X program was initiated. The Citation X, which became the 750 series, had its first flight took place on December 21, 1993, and it received type certification on June 3, 1996. Delivery began in July of 1996.
The Citation X is powered by two Rolls-Royce AE3007C2 turbofan engines with 6,764 pounds of thrust, giving it a range pf 3,111 nm with four passengers and available fuel. This jet is claimed to be the fastest business aircraft in production at Mach .935. It set multiple speed records, one of them by Arnold Palmer in 1997, when it operated at 473 knots on a 5,000 km closed course. The design of the Citation X includes larger engine intakes, which improves fuel efficiency, as well as highly swept wings that contribute to the increased critical Mach number.
Production of the Citation X ended in 2012 with the development of the Citation X+. A total of 315 aircraft had been manufactured, and 309 are currently in operation. 276 of operating aircraft are independently owned, and 33 are in shared ownership. 10.4% of the Citation X fleet is currently for sale on the market, and there they will spend an average of 373 days. North America is the largest holder of Citation X aircraft with 88%, and Europe holds an additional 5%.
