Pro feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.
Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

Differences between variants
History
- 1993First flight
- 1996 - Jato civil mais rápido já produzido
Certificado para Mach 0,92 (Mmo) e cruise típico de Mach 0,90, é o jato executivo mais rápido do mundo desde 1996, só superado pelo Concorde supersônico. Detém o record civil de subsonic speed que ainda permanece imbatido em 2024. Citation X+ posterior elevou Mmo para Mach 0,935.
- 1996 - Robert J. Collier Trophy 1996
Cessna recebeu o prestigiado Collier Trophy em 1996 pelo Citation X, o segundo jato executivo a ganhar o prêmio na história (depois do Learjet 23). Reconhecimento à inovação em high-speed civil aviation. Substituído pelo Citation X+ em 2014.

Market position
Market position analysis pending.
Brazil Fleet
Estimativa preliminar, refinar com dados RAB-ANAC.
Citation X (Cessna 750, 1996-2012), o jato civil mais rápido em produção da época (Mach 0.92). Frota BR é mínima, estimativa 1-3 aeronaves no máximo, perfil UHNW que prioriza velocidade sobre cabine. Concentração SP.
Operação BR é desafiadora: motor Rolls-Royce AE3007C (mesma família do ERJ-145) com custo de programa Rolls Care alto, e cabine apertada vs Falcon 2000/Challenger 300 da mesma faixa de preço. Mercado pre-owned: US$ 6-10M (1996-2008), US$ 10-15M (2009-2012).

Curiosities and highlights
Benefits
Teto de 51.000 ft acima do tráfego
Cruzeiro a FL510, 6.000 ft acima do tráfego comercial denso de FL370-410. Vantagens: rotas diretas sem holding, vetoração mínima, turbulência reduzida. Citation X frequentemente recebia direct routing de ATC pela altitude única.
Coast-to-coast US em 4 horas
LAX-JFK em 3h54m de costa-a-costa contra 4h30m do Challenger 300. Em rotas longas (Miami-Buenos Aires), economia de 35-40 minutos vs. concorrentes super-midsize. Para CEOs com agenda apertada, justifica o premium de speed.
Limitations
Cabine apertada vs. concorrentes
Cabine de 1,68 m (não stand-up) e 1,68 m de largura é menor que Challenger 300 (1,85 m × 2,19 m), Falcon 2000 (1,88 m × 2,34 m) ou G280 (1,93 m × 2,15 m). Trade-off claro: speed sobre comfort. Bagageiro de 82 ft³ também é o menor do segmento.
Curiosities
Record não-oficial Mach 0.935 em testes
Durante flight tests da Cessna, atingiu Mach 0,935 mergulhando, record não publicado oficialmente mas amplamente conhecido. Citation X+ (2014) certificado oficialmente em Mach 0,935 Mmo, fazendo justiça ao limite real da plataforma.
