N495DD Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
The Cessna Citation Longitude delivers 476-knot cruise speed and 3,500 NM range. N495DD is powered by 2x Honeywell HTF7700L, each producing 7,665 lbs. This performance envelope covers coast-to-coast U.S. routing and most Caribbean destinations nonstop.
Mission Profile
N495DD handles the missions that define super-midsize travel: full-day executive flights with 6-10 passengers, transcontinental routing, and the cabin volume to maintain productivity from takeoff to touchdown. The Cessna Citation Longitude's 6.4 ft-wide cabin makes the difference.
Charter Authorization
N495DD's operator holds a Part 135 certificate covering on-demand charter domestically and internationally. The Cessna Citation Longitude's 3,500 NM range and 12-passenger cabin handle the majority of corporate charter missions.
Insider Note
One pattern in this segment: super-midsize jets frequently replace two smaller aircraft in a flight department. The Cessna Citation Longitude's combination of range, cabin size, and operating economy means N495DD can handle missions that would previously have required a light jet and a separate heavy jet.
