Textron Aviation delivered the first Mexican-registered Cessna Citation Longitude to a customer who plans to use the twinjet for business travel throughout Mexico and North America, the Wichita-based company said today. The Longitude received type approval from the Mexican Federal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC) in 2022.

“The Citation Longitude’s performance, efficiency, and cabin experience make it the perfect aircraft for passengers and pilots alike, and we are pleased to deliver this for our customers in Mexico,” said Textron Aviation senior v-p of global sales and flight operations Lannie O’Bannion. “We’re grateful for the owners and operators who continue to choose Citation business jets for their business and personal travel.”
