Textron Aviation Citation Latitude
The Citation Latitude brought a wide, stand-up flat-floor cabin to the midsize class in 2015 and quickly became the best-selling midsize jet in the world, thanks in large part to a NetJets order for up to 200 aircraft. It pairs a 2,700 nm range with excellent short-field performance and Garmin G5000 avionics.
In short: The Textron Aviation Citation Latitude is a Midsize Jet with a range of 2,700 nm, a cruise speed of 446 knots and room for 8 passengers. It lists at about $21.5M new and costs roughly $2,600 an hour to operate (estimate).
