Description
Offered for sale is a 2011 Cessna Citation XLS+ with several major upgrades that set it apart from others on the market. The aircraft has already been upgraded with the Garmin G5000 flight deck, bringing modern avionics, touchscreen controllers, large-format displays, and improved situational awareness to the proven XLS+ platform. It is also scheduled to go to Textron Aviation in Wichita for a completely new custom interior, giving the cabin a clean, modern look and feel.
