Notes

Small to mid-size corporate jet. In service since 1978 (S2 since 1984, Bravo since 1997). Stretched Citation development, with more powerful engines, larger fuel tankage and increased wing span. Single pilot version CESSNA 551 Citation 2Sp (ICAO designator: C551). Replaced by CESSNA S550 Citation S2 in 1984. Returned to production in late 1985. New version: CESSNA 552 Citation Bravo, with more powerful engines and modern avionics. Bravo: MTOW: 6712 kg.
