Default Cessna Citation Latitude In Sydney

Cessna Citation 680A Latitude At Sydney Airport

Today at around 1340L, Cessna Citation Latitude C680A N11TR landed on Runway 34L and taxied to DOM 5. The aircraft seats 9, and features twin
Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306D turbofan engines.

The Latitude prototype first flew on 18th February 2014 in Wichita Kansas, and Cessna announced on 8th June 2015 that it had achieved FAA certification
for the type. Deliveries started in Q3 2015. It was launched as a larger aircraft than the Cessna Citation XLS+ and cheaper than the Cessna Citation
Sovereign. The 680A Latitude has five windows instead of the seven on the 680 Sovereign, and the Latitude has the fuselage fins below and behind the
engines.

Apart from the Cessna C680A Latitude demonstrator, very few Latitudes have visited Sydney.
