Building on the robust and highly successful CitationJet series, the Cessna Citation CJ3+ represents a significant, technology-driven evolution. More than just a successor to the CJ3, this aircraft integrates a state-of-the-art Garmin G3000 flight deck and enhanced passenger amenities into a proven airframe.

For buyers seeking the ideal balance of advanced technology, operating efficiency, and cabin comfort in the light business jet category, the pre-owned Citation CJ3+ market presents an intelligent and cost-effective solution. At Holstein Aviation, we help clients understand the features that make the CJ3+ one of the most compelling choices available today.

THE “PLUS” IN PERFORMANCE

While the CJ3 was already a highly capable light jet, the CJ3+ elevates its capabilities for a new generation of pilots and passengers.

• Optimized Performance: Retaining the efficient Williams FJ44-3A engines, the CJ3+ delivers a top speed of 416 knots and a range of over 2,040 nautical miles, making it fully capable of handling coast-to-coast missions.

• Next-Generation Avionics: The standout upgrade is the Garmin G3000 avionics suite—a fully integrated, touch-screen controlled flight deck. Advanced features such as synthetic vision, turbulence-detecting weather radar, and TCAS II reduce pilot workload and enhance safety.

• Enhanced Operations: Automated pressurization and intuitive touch-screen controls streamline flight management, representing a significant improvement over the CJ3’s older Pro Line 21 system.

A REFINED AND PRODUCTIVE CABIN

The CJ3+ isn’t just a cockpit upgrade—it also delivers a more refined passenger experience.

• Thoughtful Enhancements: The CJ3+ builds upon the spacious CJ3 interior, adding improved sound insulation, upgraded LED lighting, and higher-quality materials for a quieter, more polished cabin.

• Connectivity and Comfort: Modern options such as wireless high-speed internet, USB-C charging ports, and integrated media servers keep passengers connected and productive. Club seating with fold-out tables offers a flexible space for work or dining.

• Quiet and Bright: Large windows and improved pressurization provide a bright, open environment with a lower cabin altitude—helping reduce fatigue on longer flights.
