Citation CJ3+

The familiar CJ3 cabin, with a newer flight deck.

The Citation CJ3+ retains the compact, six-seat cabin concept of the CJ3 while introducing Garmin G3000 avionics and updated cabin systems. It offers a balanced option for a small executive group. This profile concerns the CJ3+ specifically, without attributing equipment from the later CJ3 Gen3 to earlier aircraft.

Six principal seats

Cessna’s specification describes six passenger seats as standard, with additional seating dependent on configuration. The cabin is 4.78 metres long, 1.45 metres high and 1.47 metres wide. Adjustable seats and stowing executive tables make the available space useful for conversation, light work or refreshments during a regional flight.

Range with the right assumptions

The manufacturer’s marketing brochure lists a maximum range of 2,040 nautical miles at long-range cruise, based on a ferry mission with NBAA IFR reserves. That is not the same as a full-passenger charter range. Maximum cruise is listed separately at 416 knots, so the two maxima should not be combined.

A carefully specified experience

Fourteen windows and LED lighting are part of the published cabin design. Wi-Fi and satellite connectivity were offered as options, so confirm installation, coverage and subscriptions on the aircraft proposed. For a fuller cabin, review the additional seating positions and the luggage plan before deciding that the maximum capacity suits your group.
