The Cessna Citation CJ1 builds upon the legacy of the original CitationJet with improved performance, avionics, and comfort. Featuring Williams FJ44-1A engines, the CJ1 offers a maximum cruise speed of about 380 knots and a range of roughly 1,300 nautical miles. It retains the simplicity and low operating costs that made the CitationJet series so popular, while introducing modern cockpit technology and refined cabin amenities. Designed for single-pilot operation, the CJ1 perfectly blends accessibility with executive-class performance for short to medium-range missions.
The original version, powered by Williams FJ44-1A engines and seating up to five passengers, set the foundation for the CJ line with its efficient and pilot-friendly design.
Introduced updated Collins Pro Line 21 avionics, improved climb performance, and enhanced interior styling while maintaining the same basic airframe and engine family.
