G-LATO Aircraft Overview
G-LATO is a Textron Aviation Inc Cessna Citation Latitude registered in United Kingdom with serial number 680A-0237. The Cessna Citation Latitude occupies the super-midsize category, bridging the performance gap between traditional midsize jets and large-cabin heavy platforms. The aircraft is associated with Zenith Aviation Limited, registered through the UK CAA.
Cessna Citation Latitude Market Position
The Citation Latitude brought a flat-floor, stand-up cabin to Cessna's lineup in 2015. At 2,700 nautical miles of range, it sits at the lower end of the super-midsize category but offers cabin dimensions that compete with aircraft costing significantly more. Garmin G5000 avionics and Pratt & Whitney PW306D1 engines are standard.
Performance Profile
The Cessna Citation Latitude cruises at 446 knots and achieves a maximum range of 2,700 nautical miles. That envelope covers coast-to-coast U.S. routes and most Caribbean or Central American destinations nonstop from mainland airports. Power comes from 2x Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306D1. A 45,000-foot service ceiling keeps the aircraft above congested airspace and most weather systems.
Mission Profile
Super-midsize jets fill a specific operational gap: passengers who need transcontinental range and a stand-up cabin without the acquisition and operating costs of a heavy jet. The Cessna Citation Latitude seats up to 9 in a flat-floor cabin with enough room for a productive work environment or comfortable rest on legs exceeding four hours.

G-LATO is registered in United Kingdom under the UK CAA. Contact The Jet Finder to inquire about charter availability for this aircraft or similar Cessna Citation Latitude platforms worldwide.
Insider Note
Super-midsize jets often operate from the same runway lengths as midsize aircraft but carry significantly more fuel and payload. For operators considering an upgrade from a midsize platform, the super-mid category delivers measurably more range without requiring access to longer runways.
