Timing is everything — get there first

The fastest civil airplane in the world is going to get you where you’re going before anyone else. The Citation X will climb to 51,000 feet and cruise at incredible speeds of up to Mach 0.935. The fact that it gets you back on the ground sooner may be bittersweet, however, because this jet comes with a reimagined, smart plane interior you may never want to leave.

    Wings

    The exaggerated sweepback of the X wings — 40 degrees to be precise — and winglets help it achieve its unprecedented altitude and speed while retaining stability at slower speeds. Lights for navigation and collision avoidance are included on the winglets.

    Airframe

    Every detail of the X’s surface was planned with precision using computational fluid dynamics to minimize friction at transonic speeds. Its surfaces are protected from corrosion and lightning and its nose radome and fairings are made of lightweight yet strong composite materials.

    Cargo bays

    Keep your cabin free of luggage with the X’s huge external cargo bay located in the tailcone. The compartment is heated, pressurized, and large enough to hold a minivan-load of luggage.

    Interior

    A new standard for first-class luxury

    The Citation X cabin has broken the category boundary with one of the widest, most spacious, and most luxurious interiors ever crafted for a Citation. Densely pillowed seats with wide cushions furnish the standard configuration with plenty of head and shoulder room built-in.

    The future of your business flies here

    Tailored to your specifications, the X interior is your sanctuary.

    Custom interiors

    No two X interiors will be the same. Your jet will feature customized interior finishes to fit your specific requirements. Select the leathers, fabrics, and hand-finished hardwoods. Select configuration options and details as well.

    Options include multiple cabin compartments, additional storage space, communication centers, cabin attendant provisions, and intercontinental galleys.

    Data and media sharing
    Wi-Fi connectivity
    Adjustable cabin lighting

    Cabin size and amenities

    A new, larger cabin interior provides exceptional legroom and optimal comfort with ergonomically designed seats and adjustable ambient lighting.

    The hand-crafted intercontinental galley holds catering trays and positions fine china, stemware, and cutlery all within easy reach.

    Behind solid sliding doors, a finely appointed private lavatory accommodates a flushing toilet, vanity with hot and cold water, and storage space.

    Cabin technology

    ClairityTM is an intelligent cabin management and entertainment technology solution integrated with the aircraft's avionics and electrical systems. ClairityTM provides passengers cabin controls, data and media sharing and connectivity to other passengers. Through the ClairityTM, touch screen system control of cabin lighting, window shades, temperature control, audio (digital media, MP3/iPhone) & video (digital media, Blu-Ray) entertainment with an individual interactive moving map is at your finger tips. WiFi connectivity to a personal electronic device for your entertainment needs is also available.

    Avionics

    Out of a moment of inspiration and vision

    A whole world of breakthrough engineering

    The Citation X’s advanced flight deck is powered by the Garmin G5000 avionics suite. Never before has jet piloting been so exciting. With smartphone-like touch-screen controllers, the flight department can customize how data is presented, see dimensional renderings of terrain, know precise weather patterns, and see traffic coming from literally miles away. Three multipane, widescreen displays enhanced with Garmin’s Synthetic Vision Technology (SVT™) make up the primary and multifunction flight displays.

    Intuitive control

    Four intuitive, full-color, touch-screen LCD control panels serve as the crew’s primary user interface, replacing old-fashioned knobs, buttons, and switches. Pilots are presented with triple 14-inch landscape WXGA high-resolution displays. Each all-purpose display can function independently as a primary flight display (PFD) or multifunction display (MFD). These displays can also function in multipane mode, showing both PFD and MFD side by side on the same screen.

    Two of the four control panels are installed on the center pedestal for MFD control, and two additional panels control each PFD. Pilots can customize displays via the touch-screen control panels, organizing and prioritizing data as preferred.

    True-to-life visualization

    Garmin’s Synthetic Vision Technology (SVT™) offers a virtual reality view of terrain such as water and land surfaces, obstacles, traffic, and runways.

    Using the system’s terrain-alerting database, SVT enhances pilots’ situational awareness by creating a dimensional rendering of terrain features, obstacles, and traffic in proximity to the aircraft. Pilots get a realistic picture of everything beyond the windscreen, even in solid IFR or nighttime VFR conditions. On the secondary display, MFD capabilities can be divided into two vertical pages. This allows logical pairing of whatever information is needed during any particular point in the flight sequence. Examples of this include displaying airway charts and approach plates or satellite weather and flight planning simultaneously. At the touch of the glass, pilots can instantly access traffic data, video inputs, radar, alerts, and more.

    Detailed Specifications

    Performance data is based on the standard X configuration, operating in International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) conditions with zero wind. Takeoff and landing field lengths are based on a level, hard surface and dry runway. 

    Actual performance will vary with factors such as environmental conditions, aircraft configuration and operational/ATC procedures.

    Preliminary data, subject to change.
