The Cessna Citation Mustang (Model 510) is a very light jet (VLJ) designed to deliver the speed and comfort of private jet travel in a highly efficient package. As the entry-level model in Cessna’s renowned Citation family, the Mustang offers exceptional value for regional and short-range flights. With its sleek design, advanced avionics, and reliable twin-engine performance, the Citation Mustang remains one of the most popular aircraft for private jet charters in its class.
Introduced in 2006, the Citation Mustang was developed for travelers seeking an affordable yet capable alternative to turboprop and piston-powered aircraft. It quickly became a standout performer in the very light jet category, offering true jet performance combined with impressive fuel economy. The aircraft’s compact footprint and efficient operating profile allow access to smaller regional airports, making it ideal for short-haul business trips, day meetings, and personal travel across the U.S., Mexico, and the Caribbean.
Manufactured in Independence, Kansas, the Mustang’s design features a low-wing cantilever layout with a swept wing, T-tail, and tricycle retractable landing gear. Its strong performance comes from a pair of Pratt & Whitney Canada PW615F turbofan engines, each producing 1,460 pounds of thrust. These reliable powerplants provide the Mustang with smooth climb performance and consistent speed while maintaining low operating costs compared to larger business jets.
The Citation Mustang cabin comfortably accommodates up to four passengers in a club-style seating arrangement, along with an additional right-hand cockpit jump seat for a fifth passenger when required. Despite its compact size, the cabin is pressurized, quiet, and appointed with high-quality finishes. Large windows allow ample natural light, while an efficient environmental system ensures passenger comfort throughout the flight.
The Mustang’s cabin design emphasizes functionality and comfort, making it ideal for quick regional hops or same-day round trips. It’s a favorite among executives, small business owners, and travelers seeking an efficient and affordable entry into private jet travel.
The Citation Mustang delivers an optimal balance of performance and cost-efficiency. With a cruising speed of 340 knots and a range of approximately 1,150 nautical miles, it’s capable of nonstop flights such as Los Angeles to Dallas, or Miami to the Bahamas. Its short takeoff and landing performance enable access to airports that are typically unavailable to larger jets—providing direct access to smaller cities and business centers closer to your destination.
After takeoff, the Mustang climbs rapidly to its maximum cruising altitude of 41,000 feet, flying above most weather systems and commercial air traffic. Its efficiency is further enhanced by modern aerodynamics and light airframe design, ensuring smooth operation with lower emissions and fuel burn.
The Citation Mustang introduced advanced technology to the very light jet segment, featuring a Garmin G1000 integrated avionics suite. This system combines a Primary Flight Display (PFD), Multi-Function Display (MFD), and integrated GPS navigation into a single, intuitive layout. The cockpit design simplifies pilot operations while providing high situational awareness, precision, and safety. Like other aircraft in the CitationJet series, the Mustang is certified for single-pilot operation but typically flown with two pilots for JetOptions charter missions.
The Citation Mustang’s efficiency and performance make it a perfect choice for short regional routes, such as:
Its ability to operate from small airports allows faster boarding, minimal taxi times, and reduced travel stress compared to commercial schedules.
