C-GNTL Aircraft Overview
C-GNTL is a Cessna Citation Mustang registered in Canada with serial number 510-0033. Very light jets represent the most accessible segment of jet aviation, designed for short-haul missions where speed and efficiency outweigh cabin size. The aircraft is associated with 1595127 Alberta Ltd., registered through the TCCA.
Cessna Citation Mustang Market Position
The Citation Mustang defined the very light jet category when it entered service in 2006. Its Pratt & Whitney PW615F engines, Garmin G1000 avionics, and 1,150-nautical-mile range established the baseline for every VLJ that followed. Over 470 were delivered before production ended in 2017.
Performance Profile
The Cessna Citation Mustang achieves cruise speeds around 340 knots with a range of 1,150 nautical miles. While shorter-legged than light jets, this performance covers most regional routes within a 500 to 800-mile radius. Power comes from 2x Pratt & Whitney Canada PW615F. The aircraft reaches altitudes up to 41,000 feet.
Mission Profile
VLJs serve a distinct niche: owner-pilots, air taxi operators, and travelers on short hops between regional airports. The Cessna Citation Mustang seats up to 5 passengers in a compact cabin. The economics work best on legs under two hours where the time savings over driving or airline connections justify the operating cost.
Charter & Availability
C-GNTL is registered in Canada under the TCCA. Contact The Jet Finder to inquire about charter availability for this aircraft or similar Cessna Citation Mustang platforms worldwide.
Insider Note
Very light jets are single-pilot certified, which reduces crew costs but limits duty-day flexibility on multi-leg itineraries. For back-to-back missions exceeding eight hours of duty time, a two-pilot crew or overnight rest may be required.
