Aero-News Quote of the Day

"This has been a remarkable year for Cessna. The CJ3 marks the third Citation to receive the FAA's signature of approval in 2004. From the development of the concept through FAA test flights, the Citation CJ3 has repeatedly surpassed or equaled performance specifications we originally announced. The results of the CJ3 flight tests have impressed everyone at Cessna, and we know this airplane will amaze customers. Everyone at Cessna who helped turn this airplane into reality should be enormously proud of this great aircraft."
