The Cessna Citation VI is a midsize business jet produced between 1991 and 1995, part of the ICAO code C650 family alongside the Citation III and the Citation VII. It has two engines, a 1,971 nm range, a 472 kt cruise speed, a ceiling of 51,000 ft, and a cabin with a typical configuration of 7 seats (up to 9 maximum). Since it is out of production, interest in Brazil is concentrated in the used market, where maintenance history, engine condition, and parts availability weigh more than the age of the airframe.

Verdict per regime (private, charter dry and wet) across 465 Brazilian public runways, with the margin in meters.

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.
