Charter & Acquisition Briefing
N51PR, a Longitude under , represents the newest super-midsize in the Citation lineup. Honeywell HTF7700L engines, Garmin G5000 avionics, and the quietest cabin in the category.
Fleet Position
The Longitude fleet is growing rapidly, with approximately 200 delivered since 2019. FAA data shows N51PR based in Up to 12 passengers, . The Longitude competes directly with the Challenger 350 and Praetor 600 for the super-midsize market. Cessna's service network advantage is significant: more authorized service centers than any competing OEM.
Charter Availability
N51PR is Part 135 charter authorized. Longitude charter rates range from $5,000 to $6,500 per flight hour. The Longitude offers the quietest cabin in the super-mid category, which is a measurable differentiator on flights over 3 hours. Passengers who have flown both the Longitude and Challenger 350 consistently cite the noise difference.
Mission Profile
The Longitude handles coast-to-coast nonstop with 3,500 nm range. Teterboro to Van Nuys in 4 hours 50 minutes. Miami to Seattle in 5 hours 15 minutes. The standup cabin seats 8 to 12 with a full galley, enclosed lavatory, and the lowest cabin noise in the super-mid category at 4,600 EPNdB.
When to Choose Something Else
Pass on the Longitude if the installed fleet size matters to your operation. With roughly 200 delivered versus 800+ Challenger 300/350/3500s, the Longitude has a smaller crew pool, fewer repositioning options, and thinner parts inventory at some maintenance facilities.
Ownership & Operations
Aircraft management companies handle the operational complexity of jet ownership. They provide crew, maintenance tracking, regulatory compliance, insurance, and hangar coordination. Management fees run $8,000 to $25,000 per month depending on aircraft size. For owners who fly 100 to 300 hours annually, professional management reduces risk and administrative burden while maintaining access to Part 135 charter revenue.
Pre-Purchase Considerations
Engine program enrollment significantly affects aircraft value and operating economics. Programs like Rolls-Royce CorporateCare, Pratt & Whitney Eagle Service Plan, and Honeywell MSP spread major engine costs into predictable hourly rates. Aircraft enrolled in these programs command 10 to 20% higher resale values than non-enrolled equivalents because buyers avoid the risk of unbudgeted engine overhauls.
