Textron Aviation delivered the first Cessna Citation Longitude business jet registered in Mexico to a customer who plans to utilize the aircraft for business travel throughout Mexico and the rest of North America. The Longitude received certification from the Mexican Federal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC) in 2022.

“The Citation Longitude’s performance, efficiency and unrivaled cabin experience make it the perfect aircraft for passengers and pilots alike, and we are pleased to deliver this for our customers in Mexico,” Lannie O’Bannion, senior vice president of global sales and flight operations at Textron, said. “We’re grateful for the owners and operators who continue to choose Citation business jets for their business and personal travel, and to the extraordinary Textron Aviation workforce that designs, builds and maintains our legendary lineup of aircraft.”

The company recently announced that the 100th production unit of the Citation Longitude rolled out of the factory and is expected to deliver later this year.
