2004 Cessna Citation Bravo

The Cessna Citation Bravo is a light business jet produced from 1997 to 2006, building on the proven Citation II/IISP airframe with upgraded Pratt & Whitney Canada PW530A engines and a Honeywell Primus 1000 avionics suite. Seating up to 8 passengers, the Bravo cruises at 370 knots with a range of 1,680 nautical miles, making it well-suited for regional business travel across North America. With a maximum takeoff weight of 14,800 lbs, the Citation Bravo operates efficiently from shorter runways that larger jets cannot access, a hallmark advantage of the Citation line. Fuel burn averages around 130 gallons per hour, and variable operating costs run approximately ,900 per flight hour with annual fixed costs near 00,000. The Citation Bravo is a popular entry point into jet ownership for small business owners, partnerships, and owner-pilots transitioning from turboprops. Its straightforward systems, two-crew type certification, and relatively modest operating costs make it one of the most accessible light jets on the used market. The type benefits from Cessna's extensive service network and a large parts supply chain, keeping maintenance predictable and manageable.
