Cessna Citation Ten

The newest Cessna airplane in the line of Citation jets is the Cessna Citation Ten. When you think of a Cessna aircraft, the first model or design that comes to mind is usually a single-prop airplane. The Ten is in the category of double-engine aircraft, but the fuselage is slightly different than the average type of plane. The Ten is equipped with reliable Rolls-Royce engines. The bottom of the fuselage tends to look like the tip of a smooth oval or triangle. The side-view of the airplane makes it appear almost like a seagull. The interior is a whole other story; like the Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental, the interior is lighted. The lighting can be set from a Cabin Management System. This system can be compared to an iPad fitted for an airplane. You can select music, surf the internet, or text people around the world. This system can also display the exterior of the aircraft from an on-board camera. The panels in the cockpit are touch-screen, and the Ten is equipped with a Garmin G5000 GPS; this GPS simulates the altitudes and scenery that are near the aircraft. The aircraft's price is $21,700,000.
