About

Citation CJ2+

The Citation CJ2+ refines the proven CJ2 platform with upgraded engines, avionics, and performance enhancements that make it one of the most capable and efficient light jets in its class. Powered by FADEC-equipped Williams FJ44-3A-24 engines, the CJ2+ delivers improved fuel efficiency, faster climb rates, and smoother power management. The addition of modernized avionics enhances situational awareness and ease of operation, while certification for single-pilot operation preserves the flexibility and simplicity that define the CJ family. The aircraft’s extended cabin comfortably seats six passengers, with an optional side-facing seat and belted lavatory seat to increase total capacity. Notable upgrades over the CJ2 include FADEC control, a 300-pound increase in maximum payload, and an enlarged tailcone baggage compartment for added utility. The CJ2+ climbs to 45,000 feet in just 28 minutes, cruises at 418 knots, and offers a range of approximately 1,530 nautical miles. Blending the CJ2’s practicality with enhanced performance and technology, the Citation CJ2+ stands as a well-balanced, pilot-friendly jet ideal for both business and personal missions.
