Textron Aviation Citation Sovereign+
The Sovereign+ updated the popular Citation Sovereign with winglets, Garmin G5000 avionics, autothrottles and a 3,200 nm range. Renowned for its short-field performance and long cabin, it was retired from production in 2021 as the Longitude and Latitude covered its market space.
In short: The Textron Aviation Citation Sovereign+ is a Super-Midsize Jet with a range of 3,200 nm, a cruise speed of 460 knots and room for 9 passengers. Pre-owned examples trade around $9M–$15M and costs roughly $2,800 an hour to operate (estimate).
