The old saying "when it isn't broke, don't fix it" is definitely a basic approach that Cessna engineers use when designing aircraft for their Citation business aircraft line. Many common design features that have been established throughout many years seem to re-emerge with every new model which hits the marketplace. Launched in 1997, the Citation Bravo fits the bill beautifully.
With in excess of 603 aircraft made when production stopped in 1994, the venerable Citation II was very much in need of a technological upgrade. Thus emerged the Citation Bravo. Soon after receiving FAA certification in the summer of 1996, the Citation Bravo quickly made a name for itself in the light jet aircraft marketplace. Equipped with more efficient Pratt and Whitney PW530 engines, a trailing link landing gear system utilized for much smoother landings, as well as the latest Honeywell avionics package for added safety, the Citation Bravo is in a class by itself.
Built in 2002, Desert Jet's Citation Bravo offers the utmost in cabin comfort, luxury and flexibility. Having seating for nine people which features a two seat divan, center club seating in the main cabin for six and a belted lavatory seat in the rear of the aircraft, there is a great deal of room to go around. Are you feeling hungry? Take advantage of the fully stocked refreshment center on board. Are you feeling tired? Cessna engineers redesigned the Bravo's fuselage to reduce cabin noises to enable a much more comfortable flight experience.
Do you tend to pack heavy for a trip? Not an issue. With some of the best luggage room in its class, the Bravo has room for two sets of golf clubs plus bags in its totally enclosed aft baggage space, easily accommodating that weekend in Pebble Beach with much ease. Sick and tired of shoveling snow off of your driveway? The Bravo is definitely the perfect jet to escape the extreme winter months of Canada. With a range of over 1200 nautical miles, fly non-stop from Calgary to Palm Springs in little over 3 hours.
Even though the original Citation II and the Citation Bravo might appear similar on the outside, it is really what's on the inside that counts. Not only do you get exactly the same dependability, overall performance and versatility of all previous generation Citation aircraft, the Bravo is designed for luxury, placing it in a class of its own.
Appropriate for the aircraft name, the word "bravo" is frequently employed to express a job well done.
