Description

MAJOR PRICE REDUCTION, AGAIN! - Super nice Sierra Citation Super II with Williams FJ44-3A engines with only 315.7 since overhaul, with Jettech STC for dual Garmin G700TXi's and dual Garmin GTN750Xi's. Has extra wide main entry door. Has Branson extended range tank (120 Gallons) installed by Sierra Industries. Up to 6 hours of range at 400 knots at 41,000 feet. Based at Sugar Land, Texas, a suburb of Houston. This aircraft was initially placed on the Mexican registry from 1981 until 1996. During the time in Mexico it was maintained at Citation Service Centers or at factory authorized facilities. The engines and cabin door modification were accomplished by Sierra industries in 2008. Was in France from 2017 to 2018. In 2018 the current owner purchased the aircraft in France with a pre-purchase inspection at the Citation Service Center in France and then had the aircraft fully refurbished in the US with new paint, interior and avionics upgrades. POH/AFM attached in the Service Logs section near the bottom of this ad. Benefits of the Citation Super II: --- Engines are lighter and you get an extra useful load. --- Burns 25% less fuel than the older engines and will go over 2000 nm. --- No thrust reversers, so less maintenance. --- On TAP Blue which covers mid-life and overhauls, including corrosion. --- Engines have FADEC and improve cruise speeds to 400 knots (normal cruise power) at 41,000 feet. --- Increases climb rates from 3040 fpm to 4300 fpm from the original Pratt engines. --- Climb direct to FL430. --- Quieter cabin than the old Pratt engines. --- Burns only 120 gallons per hour at cruise power settings. --- Original modification cost of around $2,000,000+. --- Empty Weight 8479.25 lbs. with MTOW of 14,750 lbs. --- Performance on par with CJ3 for less than 1/2 the price!!!!!
