Citationshares to get 25 CJ3s?

[Lumber Yak]

Can anyone from Citationshares confirm that 25 new CJ3s have been ordered? I think I read that in an Aviation Week mag. Sounds like a very nice plane - the CJ2 has a very advanced flightdeck (Pro Line 21 I think) and looks great on the ramp...

If true, Citationshares will hopefully ramp-up hiring in the next few years (I think CJ3 won't enter market until 2005 or so).

Any comments from Citationshares pilots?


Cheers

How many of those have they sold?

Stupid Question

How many of the 50 CJ3's has NJA sold? They don't deliver until 2005.

Great News

Fracman,

I am very impressed with Citationshares - I have spoken with 3-4 of your pilots on the road and they were all very enthusiastic about the company - very positive.

Have you flown the CJ1? How well is that program doing vs. the others? I would expect that it would be popular given it is at a lower price point. The CJ3 will be another great aircraft for the fleet.

Program is going well - CJ1 is a great little aircraft, Proline 21 avionics are great.
