Starter feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.

Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

    The Longitude was announced in 2012, flew in 2016 and received late FAA certification in September 2019, after significant delays. It is the top of the current Citation line, positioned as a super-mid jet against the Challenger 350 and Praetor 600.

Curiosities and highlights

Benefits

Class-leading cabin altitude: 5,950 ft at FL450

The Longitude maintains pressurization equivalent to 5,950 ft at its operating ceiling, one of the lowest in the super-mid segment and a differentiator on 6h+ missions against the Challenger 350 (7,000 ft).

Textron Longitude Spec Sheet

3,500 nm range: SP-MIA direct and CGH-NYC with a short tech stop

With an NBAA IFR range of ~3,500 nm, the Longitude flies SP-Miami non-stop with 8 PAX and reaches the US East Coast with a short stop, performance that rivals the Challenger 350.

Limitations

Sales below target: shorter backlog than the Praetor 600

Despite competitive specs, the Longitude delivered volumes below Textron's initial projections (~30-40/year vs a target of 60+), while the Praetor 600 and Challenger 350 maintain longer backlogs. It reflects a market perception that the product arrived late.
