Textron Aviation’s Cessna Citation Longitude has broken its own distance record, going just beyond the promised 3,500-nm range. During a recent demo tour, the airplane flew from the Seletar Airport in Singapore (XSP) to Sydney, Australia (SYD), a distance of 3,504 nm. The trip was not set up as a record setting flight. The super-midsize business jet carried two pilots and five passengers to 41,000 feet where the airplane cruised at Mach 0.80 during the 7-hour, 39-minute flight.
