of the next generation of light jets — the Cessna Citation M2 Gen3,
CJ3 Gen3 and CJ4 Gen3. (Textron Aviation)
Cessna Citation business jets are designed and manufactured by
Textron Aviation Inc., a Textron Inc. (NYSE:TXT) company.
Unveiled on the eve of this week’s National Business Aviation
Association — Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition
(NBAA-BACE) in Las Vegas, the Citation Gen3 aircraft bring new
levels of confidence and an elevated experience to pilots
worldwide. Attendees will enjoy access to a new Citation CJ3 Gen3
mockup and CJ4 Gen3 cockpit mockup debuting during the show at the
company’s static display at Henderson Executive Airport.
“Today we unveiled the future of flight and the next generation
of Cessna Citation light jets — the M2 Gen3, CJ3 Gen3 and CJ4 Gen3
— to carry on the iconic legacy of the trusted Citation brand while
introducing cutting-edge advancements and technology,” said Ron
Draper, president and CEO. “With the inclusion of revolutionary
Garmin Emergency Autoland technology, as well as all-new Garmin
G3000 PRIME avionics in the CJ4 Gen3, these aircraft promise to
elevate the flying experience.”
Offering pilots and passengers unparalleled peace of
mind
With the addition of Garmin Emergency Autoland to the M2 Gen3,
CJ3 Gen3 and CJ4 Gen3, the entire Cessna Citation light jet lineup
brings even greater peace of mind to the journey, for both pilots
and passengers. All three new aircraft include fully integrated
Garmin Autothrottles to provide exceptional levels of protection
and effortless precision at every stage of flight. In addition,
Runway Occupancy Awareness gives enhanced visibility of runway
obstacles and potential runway incursions, and Advanced 3D SafeTaxi
displays runways, FBOs and hangars to more easily navigate
airports.
“Adding the Garmin Emergency Autoland system to our entire
Citation light jet family lineup represents a monumental leap in
aviation technology,” Draper said. “As the world's first certified
system of its kind, Autoland offers not just an advancement in
automated flight capabilities but a profound enhancement in
passenger and pilot peace of mind. The system stands as a guardian
against loss of control following pilot incapacitation, offering
automated emergency communications and landing when needed and
providing unparalleled peace of mind to pilots and passengers.”
After certification of the Gen3 aircraft, customers who own a
Citation M2 Gen2 with autothrottles or CJ3 Gen2 aircraft will
receive a service bulletin about the opportunity to incorporate
Garmin Emergency Autoland into their aircraft.
Flying into the future in the new Citation CJ4 Gen3

industry as the first to announce inclusion of the new

About Garmin Emergency Autoland
The Garmin Emergency Autoland system is the world’s first
certified system of its kind. It provides an element of assurance
and peace of mind for pilots and passengers. The system provides a
means for the aircraft to land automatically in the unlikely event
of pilot incapacitation. A passenger can also activate the
Emergency Autoland system by pressing a dedicated button in the
cockpit. Once activated, the system immediately takes control of
the aircraft and informs Air Traffic Control of the emergency. It
then calculates a flight path to the most suitable airport or
runway, while avoiding terrain and adverse weather, initiates a
stabilized approach and automatically lands the aircraft, bringing
it to a stop before shutting down the engines.
