Data as of April 13, 2026
The Citation Longitude market remains exceptionally supply-constrained, with transaction activity increasingly occurring off-market and pricing dispersion reflecting a wide range of aircraft positioning, utilization, and seller expectations.
Fleet Size and Availability
There is currently just 1 aircraft publicly available, representing 0.6% of the fleet.
This continues to define the Longitude market: extreme scarcity on the open market. Notably, 6 of the 10 recent transactions occurred off-market, reinforcing that meaningful activity in this segment is largely happening outside traditional listing channels.
Market Listings
The sole publicly available aircraft is asking $30,000,000.
This asking price sits well above the recent sold range of $17.3M to $25.5M, highlighting a key dynamic in the Longitude market:
• Sellers with low motivation or highly specific aircraft are testing pricing at premium levels
• Buyers remain disciplined, transacting closer to true market-clearing values
This creates a visible gap between ask and execution, particularly in publicly marketed inventory.
Sales Activity
Over the past six months, 10 aircraft have sold (6 off-market).
Transaction volume has been sporadic month-to-month, with activity concentrated in select periods rather than evenly distributed. Average days on market for sold aircraft is 268 days, compared to 166 days for the current listing, though this comparison is less meaningful given the small sample size and heavy off-market influence.
Recent months have shown limited closed transactions, which is less a reflection of weak demand and more indicative of tight supply and deal flow shifting off-market.
Key Takeaways
• Inventory remains extremely limited, with just one aircraft publicly available
• A majority of transactions are occurring off-market
• Asking prices are stretching above recent comparable sales
• Closed transaction data reflects wide variability based on aircraft specifics
• Deal flow is selective and relationship-driven
Key Insight
The Longitude market is no longer defined by traditional listing dynamics—it is increasingly a relationship-driven, off-market environment. With virtually no public inventory and a high percentage of private transactions, buyers must rely on access and positioning rather than timing the open market, while sellers benefit from controlled exposure and targeted buyer pools. Pricing remains strong, but the gap between aspirational asks and executable trades underscores the importance of precise market alignment in this segment.
