Cessna’s Citation Mustang entered service in Europe earlier this month when British-based entrepreneur Jane Howell arrived at the London-area Farnborough Airport on September 5, having flown the new entry-level jet across the Atlantic from Wichita. The delivery entailed 14 hours of flying and three refueling stops, but for the owner-pilot it was the trip of a lifetime.

Howell is basing her N-registered Mustang at Milan Linate Airport, where authorized Citation service center Centro Tecnico Aeronautico will support it. She will fly it herself, single-pilot, on frequent personal and business trips within Europe. Many of these flights will be between her three homes in the UK, Austria and Italy. She expects to log about 150 hours a year.
