About this aircraft
The Citation CJ2 stretches the CJ1 fuselage for more cabin length and seating while staying in the light-jet category.
That extra room made it popular with charter operators who needed six-seat flexibility without moving up to a CJ3. FJ44 engines and CitationJet field performance keep it useful into shorter runways.
Pick the CJ2 when CJ1 cabin length is tight but CJ3/CJ4 capacity is more than the mission needs.
