Cessna Citation II/SP FAQ

How many Cessna Citation II/SP are there?

The aircraft registries we evaluate (mainly the FAA) list 60 Cessna Citation II/SP. That is not the worldwide total — aircraft from countries without an open registry are missing. Our tracker has seen 10 jets of this type via ADS-B and recorded 23 flights in the last 30 days.

How far can a Cessna Citation II/SP fly?

Jets in the Light jet class typically fly around 2,800 km nonstop with reserves and a normal payload, at about 720 km/h cruise speed with 5–7 passengers. The individual model may differ depending on the version.

How much does an hour on a Cessna Citation II/SP cost?

Charter prices for the Light jet class are typically €3,200–€4,500 per block hour, plus airport and handling fees. The free cost calculator gives an estimate for your route; empty legs are often much cheaper.

How much CO₂ does a Cessna Citation II/SP emit per hour?

At a class-typical fuel burn of 420 kg of jet fuel per hour, it emits around 1,330 kg of CO₂ per flight hour (3.16 kg of CO₂ per kg of fuel). We use this value to estimate the emissions of recorded flights, too.

Fly the same jet type as an empty leg

Challenger, Citation or Gulfstream: when jets reposition without passengers, operators often sell the seats at a steep discount.

Data sources & notes

Data source: public ADS-B data

All positions come from publicly broadcast ADS-B signals that every aircraft transmits unencrypted and that volunteers around the world receive. Data may be delayed, incomplete or inaccurate.

Linking an aircraft to a well-known person is based on public sources such as media reports and registry data. "Jet attributed to X" explicitly does not mean that this person is on board or ordered the flight — aircraft are also chartered, sold or used by others.

All information is provided without warranty; no liability is accepted for accuracy or completeness. CO₂ figures are estimates based on typical fuel burn for the aircraft class.

Using this data to harass, track or stalk people is prohibited.
