69-432: A 1.5 ft (46 cm) fuselage stretch and recontoured interior for increased passenger space. The passenger cabin is 17.3 ft (5.3 m) long, 4.9 by 4.8 ft (149 by 146 cm) wide and high with a dropped aisle , has seven windows on each side and accommodates a four-seat club plus three chairs and a closed, belted lavatory. Maximum seating capacity is eleven, consisting of two pilots, eight passengers in

92-510: A component of a glass cockpit . MFDs are part of the digital era of modern planes or helicopter. The first MFDs were introduced by air forces in the late 1960s and early 1970s; an early example is the F-111D (first ordered in 1967, delivered from 1970–73). The advantage of an MFD over analog display is that an MFD does not consume much space in the cockpit, as data can be presented in multiple pages, rather than always being present at once. For example,

115-526: Is a series of medium thrust turbofan engines designed specifically for business jet applications. The PW530 has a single stage fan, driven by a 2-stage LP turbine, supercharging a 2A/1CF axial-centrifugal HP compressor, driven by a single stage HP turbine. Although similar in configuration, the PW535 has a booster stage, mounted on the LP shaft behind the fan, to increase overall pressure ratio and core flow. Similar to

138-440: Is a small-screen ( CRT or LCD ) surrounded by multiple soft keys (configurable buttons) that can be used to display information to the user in numerous configurable ways. MFDs originated in aviation, first in military aircraft, and later were adopted by commercial aircraft, general aviation , automotive use, motorsports use, and shipboard use. Often, an MFD will be used in concert with a primary flight display (PFD), and forms

161-457: Is digitally controlled and brake modulation is improved. Redesigned interior fittings and passenger seats provide more seated headroom. Passenger service units provide more even airflow and temperature control. MTOW increases by 330 pounds to 16,630 pounds, to carry five passengers with full fuel, lengthening takeoff from the 3,180 feet needed by the Ultra. The improved PW535 high altitude thrust allow

184-866: Is the Marine Corps designation for the Citation Encore. The final UC-35D was delivered to the Marine Corps in May 2006. The Marine Corps plans to replace its 10 UC-35D aircraft with new UC-12W Huron aircraft by 2030, and began phasing out the UC-35D in 2021. The aircraft is operated by private individuals, companies, fractionals, charter operators and aircraft management companies.

The CJ3 has better fuel efficiency and runway performance but a shorter cabin, the Learjet 45 XR cruises faster and hauls more but needs longer runways and burns more fuel, while the CJ4 has better payload/range but is more expensive. The later Model 560 variants are the fastest and farthest flying jets with

230-492: The fluid deicing system of the S/II with improved pneumatic deicing boots for decreased weight and easier maintenance, and the horizontal stabilizer span was increased slightly to compensate for the increased engine thrust. The Citation V was also the first Citation with an electronic flight instrument system (EFIS) offered as standard equipment, albeit only on the captain's side. A preproduction prototype flew in early 1986 and

253-438: The type certificate of the original Citation 500 . Softer landing trailing link main landing gear reduced fuel tank capacity to 5,440 pounds, 360 pounds less than the Ultra's, but it has more range. The wheel track was narrowed 3.7 feet for better ground tracking and easier crosswind landing. The wing leading edge is de-iced by bleed air. Boundary layer energizers and a stall fence improve stall characteristics. Pressurization
