Continuing a refreshment cycle of its legacy aircraft that began last year with the King Air 360 and 260 and in February with the Citation CJ4 Gen2, Textron Aviation on Monday announced interior upgrades to the M2 and XLS+ light and midsize twinjets at NBAA-BACE. “We’re trying to accelerate upgrading all existing products,” Textron Aviation president and CEO Ron Draper told AIN. “We have such a broad product line up, we feel you need a mix of new aircraft as well as bringing nice performance, interior, and other enhancements to existing products.”

Inside the flight deck of M2 Gen2, Textron Aviation has added three inches of legroom in the copilot’s position. In the cabin, entry threshold materials have been improved for durability and maintainability, including the side-facing seat that folds down.
