Citation IISP: Efficient and Versatile Light Jet Charter with JETVIP

The Cessna Citation IISP (Model 551) is a light twin-engine business jet that offers a compelling balance of performance, efficiency, and single-pilot operability, making it a popular choice for charter flights for small to medium-sized groups.

Discover the Advantages of Chartering a Citation IISP:

• Single-Pilot Certified: A key advantage of the IISP is its certification for single-pilot operation, potentially reducing crew costs for your charter.
• Comfortable Cabin: Typically configured to seat 6-8 passengers in a comfortable cabin, often featuring a center club seating arrangement.
• Good Range for its Class: The Citation IISP offers a range of approximately 1,220 to 1,700 statute miles (1,060 to 1,477 nautical miles), depending on the source and specific operating conditions. This allows for efficient regional and some medium-range travel.
• Efficient Performance: Powered by two Pratt & Whitney JT15D-4 engines, the IISP provides a good cruise speed of around 355 to 464 mph (309 to 403 knots).
• Short Runway Capability: The IISP can operate from relatively short runways, providing access to a wider range of airports, including those closer to your final destination. Takeoff distances are typically around 4,580 feet, and landing distances around 3,583 feet.
• Enclosed Lavatory: For added convenience on longer flights, the Citation IISP typically features an enclosed lavatory.
• Baggage Capacity: Offers a reasonable baggage capacity, typically around 60 to 77 cubic feet, accommodating luggage for most passengers.

Comparing the Citation IISP to Other Aircraft:

The Citation IISP falls into the light jet category, offering a step up in size and range from very light jets like the Citation Mustang. While not as spacious or long-ranged as mid-size jets, it provides a cost-effective and efficient option for smaller groups needing more than a very light jet. Its single-pilot capability is a distinct advantage over some other light jets that require two pilots.
