PP-JFM Aircraft Overview
PP-JFM is a Cessna Citation XLS registered in Brazil with serial number 560-5045. This midsize jet serves the core of the business aviation market, balancing cabin space, range, and operating cost in a way that makes it the most common category for corporate flight departments. The aircraft is associated with Martins Comercio Servicos De Distribuicao Sa, registered through the ANAC Brazil.
Cessna Citation XLS Market Position
The Citation XLS and XLS+ improved on the Excel with increased range, upgraded avionics, and cabin refinements. The XLS+ added Pratt & Whitney PW545C engines and Collins Pro Line 21. The type consistently ranks among the most delivered midsize jets worldwide and dominates the owner-flown midsize market.
Performance Profile
At 441 knots, the Cessna Citation XLS cruises efficiently across routes up to 2,100 nautical miles. This covers most domestic city pairs nonstop and reaches select international destinations from southern U.S. airports. Power comes from 2x Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545B. The aircraft operates at altitudes up to 45,000 feet.
Mission Profile
Midsize jets handle the bulk of corporate aviation missions: day trips, multi-city tours, and regional travel where airlines cannot match the schedule. The Cessna Citation XLS seats up to 9 passengers with a cabin that allows standing and provides enough volume for presentations, meals, or rest on flights under four hours.
Charter & Availability
PP-JFM is registered in Brazil under the ANAC Brazil. Contact The Jet Finder to inquire about charter availability for this aircraft or similar Cessna Citation XLS platforms worldwide.
Insider Note
Midsize jets offer the best balance of cost and capability for most private aviation missions. A common mistake is chartering a heavy jet for a route a midsize aircraft handles easily. The difference in hourly rate between the two categories can exceed $3,000 per flight hour.
