Cessna is expecting to receive FAA certification for the new Citation X later this year.
He uses his Citation X business jet to oversee about 70 races a year.
The aforementioned Citation X, for example, can reach 43, 000 feet in just 30 minutes.
XOJet owns 75 jets but has only three types: the Challenger 300, the Hawker 800XP and the Citation X.
You'd surely have to give up the Aspen and Maui homes or replace the Citation X with a fractional jet-ownership.
He revels in the fact his Citation X can fly faster than any of the other business jets that the competitive team owners have.
It will keep you in several homes in great places--New York, Aspen and Maui, say--and fund a midsize private jet like a Citation X to get you there.
Cessna began development of the Citation X in 1990 and after its introduction in 1996, it quickly set numerous speed records to claim the title of the fastest operational business jet in the world.
After he installed winglets on his Citation X to make it go even faster, I asked him if he ever throttled back to take advantage of the fuel savings that the winglets gave his airplane.
These winglets, which Cessna says increase fuel efficiency and takeoff and landing performance at higher elevations and on hot days, were previously available as an aftermarket option on the Citation X but come as standard on the new model.
