The private jets Citation Mustang and Phenom 100 are “Very light jet” aircraft capable of carrying 4 passengers over short distances.
Mustang Jet Citation
The Citation Mustang jet was produced in the USA by the American manufacturer Cesnna Textron Company in 479 units from 2006 to 2017. It was the first very light jet aircraft certified to fly in icing conditions, whose main characteristic is to be able to take off from many airports with short runways, while being a very economical aircraft to purchase, maintain and cost per flight hour in public transport rental.
The Citation Mustang jet is and will remain for many years to come, a very popular aircraft with the companies that operate it. The Mustang Jet Citation had a certain preference on the part of our customers for their short-haul trips over turboprop aircraft such as Beechcraft King Air 90 or King Air 200 offered at higher prices and flying slower.

- Separate toilet at the rear of the cabin, not available on the Citation Mustang.
