New Light Jet Makes Inaugural Flight Friday
The prototype of Cessna's new Citation M2, announced less than six months ago, made its first flight Friday. The flight lasted a little more than an hour and a half and included tests of the avionics system, autopilot, engine system, aircraft systems and instrument approaches. The prototype took off and landed at Wichita, KS, Mid-Continent Airport (KICT) where Cessna's main manufacturing facility is located.
