As classifications go, the Citation XLS can best be described as a mid-sized jet. However, when you consider the option to take off in 3,500 feet of runway and the quick climb (18 minutes) to cruising altitude, you can see why many flyers flashback to their times in lighter private jets when traveling in the XLS. The passengers and pilots who have had the chance to fly in a XLS also give it high marks for excellent handling, dependable flight controls and reliable smooth flights. One of the many outstanding features in the XLS cabin is how quiet and draft-free the ride is. You can thank a triple-sealed door and triple-pane windows for that benefit. There are other perks like fold-out tables and sliding headrests that allow the nine potential passengers to fly in comfort. There’s even a couch to stretch out on. For added comfort, the Citation XLS offers up, dual air conditioning systems to provide perfect flying temperatures no matter what’s happening on the outside of the craft. The structural design of the XLS incorporates a long-travel trailing link landing gear. This will provide a smooth landing and taxiing experience on every flight. For storage, there’s 80 cubic feet under the plane along with an interior closet. On the performance front, the XLS can level off at 43,000 feet in just less than 25 minutes. It also has the range to fly 1,941 miles with up to four passengers. This aircraft is also extremely pilot friendly with the Honeywell Primus 1000 avionics system that melds together multiple displays into an easy to read control panel. If there is a standard for private jet travel, the Citation XLS sets the bar very high
