Cessna's new Citation Ten jet is scheduled for its first flight by the end of 2011, with deliveries expected in the latter half of 2013.
It offers significantly improved performance over the Citation X, including a top cruising speed of 527 knots and a maximum range of 3,245 nautical miles, enabling long-haul flights like New York to London.
Key enhancements include a 15-inch longer cabin for increased legroom and the integration of the Garmin G5000 avionics suite.

According to Cessna, the Citation Ten has a new design and performance capabilities that allow it “to fly higher, faster and further than the existing Citation X (Model 750).”
