Cessna Citation Latitude Headlining Textron Aviation 2015 EBACE Display In the next few days Textron Aviation will be displaying many of its aircraft brands and models at the 2015 edition of the European Business Aviation Convention Exhibition (EBACE). Headlining for the group will be Cessna's all-new Citation Latitude which will also be a first for the aircraft type on display in Europe. The show starts on May 19 and goes until the 21st. The Citation Latitude will no doubt be the star of the show for Textron Aviation. Featuring the most expansive interior of any Citation jet, the Latitude provides customers with an advanced flight experience from cockpit to cabin while offering optimized acquisition and operating efficiencies. The aircraft features a flat cabin floor and six feet (1.83 meters) of cabin height, Garmin G5000 avionics, and two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306D engines with auto-throttle capabilities. Cessna’s Clairity® cabin-technology system ties into the Citation Latitude’s advanced avionics center to provide connectivity and productivity to each passenger through their personal electronic devices.
In addition to the Citation Latitude debut, the Cessna Citation CJ3+ business jet will be displaying in Europe for the first time and features a new Garmin G3000 flight deck, enhanced interiors and advanced ClairityTM cabin connectivity. A Cessna Grand Caravan EX will also be on display featuring all-new standard interiors that improve cabin comfort and functionality. The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) recently approved the Grand Caravan EX’s 14-place configuration, allowing the newest model of the Caravan family – celebrating 30 years of production this year – to offer higher density seating and greater operational capability for operators in European countries. Other Textron Aviation aircraft planned for display at EBACE include Cessna’s Citation M2, Citation CJ4 and Citation XLS+ alongside Beechcraft’s King Air C90GTx, King Air 250 and Special Mission King Air 350ER.
