Citation CJ2: a little history
The Citation CJ2 is a landmark development in the Citation family, renowned for its innovation and influence in business aviation. The history of the CJ2 goes back to the beginnings of the Citation series in the early 1970s.
The CJ2 is directly derived from the CitationJet, which was first introduced in 1993. In response to growing demand for light, high-performance business jets, Cessna launched the CJ2 in 1998 as an improved iteration of the original CitationJet. This version introduced significant improvements, including a larger cabin, more powerful engines and enhanced performance.
The CJ2 quickly gained in popularity due to its versatility, its ability to operate on shorter runways, and its competitive operating cost. The combination of these factors helped make the Citation CJ2 a popular choice for private owners and fleet operators alike.
Over the years, the Citation series has continued to evolve with successive updates, but the CJ2 has left a lasting imprint as a high-performance, reliable business aircraft. Its history reflects Cessna’s ongoing commitment to meeting the changing needs of the business aviation market, while maintaining high standards of quality, comfort and performance.
