Citation XLS+

THE CITATION XLS+. THE MOST SOUGHT-AFTER BUSINESS JET ON THE PLANET.

CITATION XLS+
 A CASE STUDY IN TAKING
EXCELLENCE TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
Once in a while one comes across a clear improvement on a good thing. In this case, a great thing.
The Citation XLS+. The “plus” means we’ve taken the world’s best-selling business jet and made it
even better. Building on the combination of cabin comfort and straight-wing performance that made
both the Excel and the XLS such smashing successes, we’ve added more of what matters most. More
space and more features. All the things that make it a favorite of private owners and fleet operators
year after year.

The XLS+ gives the world-famous Citation a host of

additional features along with the largest cabin in its class.

A Honeywell APU powers air conditioning and

Ice Breakers
Three methods of ice protection come standard:
electric heat for windshields and sensors, pneumatic
boots on the horizontal stabilizer, and bleed air for
engine inlets and wing leading edges.

Pilots frequently comment on the impressive climb rate of the

runways or those in regions with mountainous terrain.

INTRINZIC . THE ULTIMATE
TM

FLIGHT DECK FOR PILOTS.

We challenge you to find a cockpit that offers pilots a flying experience more intuitive than the
Cessna IntrinzicTM . Built around Cessna’s deep understanding of how pilots fly, IntrinzicTM ensures
that everything you want to know—from upcoming weather and airport diagrams to detailed flight
status—is easy to see and reach. Whether you sit in the left or right seat, you’ll notice that once-
challenging activities take on a nearly effortless flow. FMS controls and key panels are angled, and
the four 8 x 10-inch displays show flight information in simple, clear readouts. We even replaced
toggle switches with lighted push buttons and arranged them in logical sequence with your
checklist. Just what you’d expect from Cessna, the company with the most industry experience
designing aircraft around the needs of the pilot.

The instrument layout includes a tilt panel across

the width of the cockpit that improves visibility of
instruments mounted beneath the vertical panel.

by choosing airports with shorter runways that may be closer to your destination.

A STANDOUT AMONG
STAND-UP BUSINESS JETS.
As soon as they board a Citation XLS+, most people find themselves doing something they rarely can on
other business jets in its category. Standing. The dropped aisle provides 68 inches of cabin height. That,
along with an interior width of 66 inches, gives the XLS+ the roomiest cabin of any light business jet. And
every inch is tastefully appointed to your specifications in high-quality fabrics and finishes. Ready to take
a break from working en route? Depending on your choice of configurations, a deluxe refreshment center
is at your service, as are six fully-reclining, extra-wide seats and a two-place, side-facing couch. And
when your destination is near, the XLS+ allows you to freshen up in a private and spacious aft lavatory.

The aft lavatory with sliding privacy doors is large

enough to serve as a dressing area, and the second
side-facing belted seat is designed to accommodate
an additional passenger.

 A forward closet with removable and adjustable
shelves may be configured to hang coats neatly or
keep a wide variety of items within easy reach.

Interior options include various-sized closets

combinations, cockpit sliding doors, moving map
display, entertainment systems, and Aircell

comfort up to 25,000 feet. To complement natural

Six fully-reclining leather seats, four in a center club

configuration, are wider than their predecessors and
feature redesigned head-and armrests.

 MAKING OUR CITATION YOUR CITATION.
We understand every XLS+ owner is unique, and your aircraft should be too. Cessna will
be your consultant as you participate as much or as little as you like in customizing your
aircraft’s interior and exterior details. The process begins with the selection of available
avionics and entertainment options and is followed by the specification and configuration.
We have three state-of-the-art specification rooms that incorporate fully integrated design
studios. Our dedicated in-house designers, who have more than 35 years combined aircraft
design experience, will assist you in putting your personal touch on your new XLS+. You
will also have the opportunity to customize your exterior paint scheme by working directly
with one of our dedicated exterior designers. Once your new XLS+ is ready, we’ll schedule
a visit to our design headquarters for you or someone you designate, where we’ll perform
a detailed inspection of the final product. During your stay, we’ll thoroughly familiarize you
with the aircraft both on the ground and in the air before you take delivery.

FLIGHT SAFETY FIRST.

FlightSafety Learning Centers are located at major
business aviation airports and feature state-of-the art
training equipment and course materials that have
been developed in close cooperation with Cessna.
Training is critical to both safe operation and the enjoyment of flying. That’s why Cessna has
long partnered with the world’s foremost aviation training provider, FlightSafety International, to
deliver the highest quality pilot and maintenance technician training to new Citation operators. At
the FlightSafety Learning Center in Wichita, Citation XLS+ pilots can receive full-motion simulator
training from experienced Citation instructors while awaiting delivery of your aircraft. Maintenance
training is offered at the Cessna maintenance training facility in Wichita. Training for two pilots and two
technicians is included in the aircraft purchase price.
